Counting holes in these carved masterpieces is like trying to count stars after three energy drinks. These "Devil's Work" balls are the original 3D puzzles before 3D printers made everything too easy! Ancient Chinese carpenters spent their entire lives carving these concentric spheres from a single block of ivory—no glue, no joints, just pure patience and probably several mental breakdowns. Modern engineers would need therapy after attempting this. The title is the ultimate trick question—it's like asking "how many grains of sand at the beach?" Nobody knows, but everyone's going to argue about it anyway!
