Small Box Two - "Aha Box" This design was Alan Boardman's IPP exchange puzzle in 2004. He describes it as ""Designed to lure your non-puzzler friends into ""our"" world."" It gives very few clues upon handling...it seems to be solid, with no way to open it. A solution does exist, and it's quite tricky to discover. Sturdy and pocket sized, a great puzzle to share with friends and non-puzzlers. This little box also has a surprisingly useful amount of space inside! Construction of this puzzle is...

Blah Box is the result of the accumulation of ideas I had while trying to design a simple mechanism for the box containing the DDD Burr Puzzle. I wanted to make a simple trick opening mechanism for DDD, but in the end, discarded the idea because it would overly increase the price of the puzzle. I came out of the design session with some solid ideas, which, when combined, turned into a rather interesting box on their own. I was feeling rather "Blah" about my failure with DDD and decided to name t...

From the original description:The cover rattles.  But, the cover doesn't open even when you pull it up or turn any points of the box.  It was unveiled at an exhibition that was held in Feb. 2008 by the craftsman and Mr. Ninomiya.  At the exhibition, a customer who experienced Karakuri for the first time opened it very quickly, but a veteran of puzzles needed 30 minutes.  This caused a lot of laughter!  The acorn is made of wood.  This work was designed for the marriage party of the craftsm...

When this box was for sale on Cubicdissection I was too slow and missed out so I contacted Dee Dixon to ask if there was any chance of a spare.  He had only one, which did not make the grade because of a slight flaw.  This "flaw" is cosmetic, does not affect operation and is on the INSIDE of the box so you only get to see it if you solve the puzzle!  Dee allowed me to buy it at a slightly discounted price and I have seen the inside of the box.  If I did not KNOW there was a flaw I probably w...

A beautiful puzzle box by Jesse Born, which is reprogrammable to different combinations.from his website:This puzzle has a somewhat complicated solution that works like a maze with dead ends and backtracking that can result in a very lost puzzler. These boxes were made with the ability to be reprogrammed into a different combination once the box is opened. Unlocking this box may seem easy until puzzle solvers realize they are trapped in a maze web and will need to figure out how to backtrack and...

This work was designed as a Christmas present for 2014. It is very difficult to convey ones feeling in a letter. Even after completing the letter, you may decide not to actually send it. If ones true feelings are conveyed even through the distance, surely the receivers heart grows fonder as well. Includes original box and copy of solution sheet

Makishi Puzzle BoxI believe this is a 16 move puzzle box.  I say believe because Makishi’s puzzle boxes are sneaky with lots of moving parts, so after a few solves I was still unsure if I’ve counted correctly. I believe this puzzle box is crafted from poplar wood with a Walnut finish applied to it.  The puzzle box does not come with a solution.Shipping to your exact location can be calculated at the auction close, or send me a message and I can get you an estimate. Many thanks!

This second release of Lift Box incorporates a couple of design improvements over the last version. Customer reviews of the previous release describe the box well: ""Removing the lid of the Lift Box is easy, but this does not allow access the inside of the box and here the actual solve starts. The box has an unusual mechanism, and first time I have seen one like that. There are some carefully hidden hints in the design that give you a rough idea what may be required, but actually finding the ...

Based upon “Alice in Wonderland”, this box is a representation of the clock the rabbit carries while running late for the tea party. In some ways, solving this puzzle is similar to picking a safe, as the sound and feel of both free moving clock hands, combined with additional clues, point to its solution. The second and final compartment contains a brass coin with the Stickman logo. 50 copies made, but most of them are not publicly available as they will be integrated into the u...
