A Man's Got to Go
A puzzle box from 2015 by Tracy Wood Clemons. It includes two locks holding it shut to start, each with different mechanisms, and multiple compartments. Includes the solution. Test solved, and everything is functioning properly. The original padlock-style lock broke during shipping, and Tracy graciously replaced it when I asked about getting it repaired. I'll include the original as well (shown in photo), though the shackle will be a bit fragile due to the glue job.Reviewed here:http://magicpuzz...
