It's called "The Tri-Tangle Puzzle" and it's from Marks & Spencer. It's a triangular wooden block with string threaded through 3 holes in it. There's a wooden ball on it and a metal ring which u have to try and get off. Unfortunately I don't have a pic of it or anything and their clue site - http://www.marksandspencer.com/lateralthinkingpuzzles - conveniently doesn't have this puzzle on it.
Anybody know how to do it? It's doing my head in.

Christmas present, yep. Bought for me from this year's selection. I hope they didn't remove it from the site, that'd be very annoying.

its relatively straight forward to do, just remember that there is no open end, therefore the only way to do it is to move the end over the end ball..... Having said that it took me about 15 mins to sue out then 2 mins to undo. Now its in pieces and I can't put it back together as I was so exited with undoing it I forgot to remember how it came apart..... anyone got the solution to put it back together?????
