This is my entry for the 2015 IPP Puzzle Design competition

Read more about the story behind this puzzle in the 'How I Designed This' section
The puzzle is composed of three nested layers of dodecahedra.
The challenge is to crack Plato's egg into its constituent parts, find and disassemble the trisected dodecahedron at the centre, then put it back together again.
Each of the three stages requires a degree of coordinate motion
