Gregory Benedetti - Daedelus (made by Maurice Vigouroux, 2011)
a channel-maze cube. eight pieces with metal pins and grooves. not sure how many copies were made.
made with ipé, which is a wood dense enough to require metalworking tools to cut. it's tough stuff. cockroaches will be solving this puzzle when humanity is gone.
Gregory's description [from https://www.puzzle-place.com/wiki/Daedalus]:
Daedalus seems to be a classic interlocking 3x3x3 cube, but, on the internal hidden faces, pins inside grooves, can define it, like an internal evolutionary maze. When a piece moves, a part of the maze moves with. Each unit of the cube has edges cut which permit rotations. All the possible moves can be used. One unique solution. Level: 49 (23, 9, 8, 3, 3, 1, 2) rotations required.
