Labyrinth wooden maze

Labyrinth wooden maze

The puzzle is to try to remove the ring from the maze...  without bending it out of shape!   

The puzzle looks easy when you first pick it up but that is definitely not the case.  It has subtle and interesting indents in the wooden 'grid' that make moving the ring from hole to hole confusing.  The ring has an opening but at times it seems it's just not wide enough.  The other solid ring on the puzzle just adds more confusion.
