But it's fair game to 'skin' the baseball, insert the baseball core into the jar, and then sew back the leather around the core again?

- noman-land 6y agoI'll answer your question with another impossible object. https://puzzleworld.org/PuzzleWorld/puz/img/arrow_through_coin_1.jpg https://puzzleworld.org/PuzzleWorld/puz/img/arrow_through_co... "Some people say the coin was placed around a tree when it was very young, and then later carved into the arrow."
- 6nf 6y agoI love it
- benlivengood 6y agoWouldn't it be easier to carve the whole thing from a single piece of wood?
- noman-land 6y agoThe coin is metal!
- bb88 6y agoBack when I was a kid there was an episode of "The Woodwright's Shop", where he talked about creating a wood box with no seams containing a coin. The trick was to drill several holes in a tree that you'll eventually cut down, and fill them with coins. Wait five or ten years for the tree to grow wood around them, then cut the tree down and carve out the boxes from the outside, leaving a hole to view the coin.
- sandworm101 6y agoNote that this is wood. If you know how to compress wood you know how to get wooden things into bottles or through holes in coins. Steam is a wonderful thing.

- c1ccccc1 6y agoThe comment that mentioned using steam to bend the wood sounds the most plausible, but another technique might be to use a mould with a hole in it and cast the coin with the wood already passing through it. Seems like it would be difficult to get such a nice looking coin that way though.
