I photo copied the rings for each number of rings that are there , cut them out. I stuck then together with a tac on a square of cardbord and worked them around to several combos until I had coords that worked out when I put them in the GPSr…use the hint just like I had to use the hint on your puzzle helidood. I forgot the solve but I had to work it for quite some time. Good Luck

But how dod you actually make the rings?

The “Rings” on the cache page is a jpg that you can drag off and then print, several times.
But I have a sneaky suspicion that you want to know how to create a set of rings so that it produces coordinates of your own choosing. For that you will have to ask the cache owner or work it out on your own. 😈

(Please, nobody tell Cheezehead how create one of these puzzles!)

I promise not to tell, even if I knew. I hate puzzles, except sudoku. When I see that blue question mark, I just move on to the next one. I was thinking of doing a numbers run over in Appleton, so I brought up the map … maybe I’ll go somewhere else 😯

You can still get numbers in Appleton even without doing any puzzles. And some of those are solve-in-the-field puzzles. Not all puzzles are bad. Each one deserves at least a look.

Just like I stated before…I made several copies if the rings. I left 1 copy whole, then I cut the next ring set missing the outter most ring of each copy untill when all stacked up it looks just like the orginal. I put a tack in the center of the stack and then turned them several ways until I had what looks like it may work. Using the posted coords for reference. and reading the whole page for CLUES, for a solve. but If you’re looking for how to set this puzzle up, I have no clue.

No need to cut. Let your brain spin and the answer lights up. 💡 Works for John Nash, anyway……………………………..
