By Grant Elliott and Caroline Hilburn
Answer: BIOFUEL TORCH

After solving the Build puzzles, solvers are presented with the following answers (in alphabetical order):

  • BRAZENLY EVIL
  • CHEMISTRY SAVVY
  • CONFINED AQUIFER
  • DRUNK ENOUGH
  • FANCY CAMBRIC
  • FITZSIMMONS GUILBERT
  • ROLLIN HAND
  • THREE POUNDER

Solvers are also presented with a series of blank crosses. However, the lengths of the crosses do not correspond to the lengths of the answers.

As suggested by the flavor text, each answer is being “held together” by either a nut or a bolt:

Answer Held Together By Nut or Bolt
BRAZENLY EVIL BRAZIL Nut
CHEMISTRY SAVVY CHEVY Bolt
CONFINED AQUIFER CONIFER Nut
DRUNK ENOUGH DOUGH Nut
FANCY CAMBRIC FABRIC Bolt
FITZSIMMONS GUILBERT FILBERT Nut
ROLLIN HAND ROLAND Bolt
THREE POUNDER THUNDER Bolt

These nuts and bolts fit into the provided crosses. For each cross, there is exactly one nut and one bolt which can hold the cross together by having the same letter at the point where they cross. Filling in the crosses yields:

    F      
    I      
    L      
F A B R I C
