Bah, my brain hurts too much to write a recursive hashifier at the
moment.

Maybe this will help inspire you; I wrote something a while ago to do
this the other way around: Turning a nested Hash into a 2D Array
(although I still don't know how it works).

 h = {
      Part1: {
        Type1: {
          SubType1: 1, SubType2: 2, SubType3: 3
        },
        Type2: {
          SubType1: 4, SubType2: 5, SubType3: 6
        }
      },
      Part2: {
        Type1: {
          SubType1: 1, SubType2: 2, SubType3: 3
        },
        Type2: {
          SubType1: 4, SubType2: 5, SubType3: 6
        }
      }
    }

def convert_hash(h)
  _hash_to_a(h).each_slice(2).map { |a1,a2| a1 << a2.last }
end

def hash_to_a(h)
  h.map { |k,v| v.is_a?(Hash) ? _hash_to_a(v).map { |val| ([ k ] + [ val
]).flatten(1) } : [ k, v ] }.flatten(1)
end

require 'pp'

pp convert_hash(h)
[[:Part1, :Type1, :SubType1, 1],
 [:Part1, :Type1, :SubType2, 2],
 [:Part1, :Type1, :SubType3, 3],
 [:Part1, :Type2, :SubType1, 4],
 [:Part1, :Type2, :SubType2, 5],
 [:Part1, :Type2, :SubType3, 6],
 [:Part2, :Type1, :SubType1, 1],
 [:Part2, :Type1, :SubType2, 2],
 [:Part2, :Type1, :SubType3, 3],
 [:Part2, :Type2, :SubType1, 4],
 [:Part2, :Type2, :SubType2, 5],
 [:Part2, :Type2, :SubType3, 6]]
