Blinded II by Dee Dixon
Blinded II is Dee's newest sequential discovery puzzle box. Crafted from zebrawood, and walnut, with angled spline keys to reinforce the miter joints. Development required multiple prototypes, resulting in a refined and unpredictable puzzle. It measures 3.5" wide x 5" long x 3.5" high. Putting items inside will interfere with the opening mechanism.Note: Color fading is present from storage with attached magnet block, see photo for detail. ****************************************************...

Jesse Born - Sea Chest (2020)
i'm not sure where Jesse gets the concepts for his puzzles, but they
often remind me of movies. this one reminds me of Pirates Of The
Caribbean. (the first one (i mean the good one).) but if i'd been born
half a century earlier it would probably remind me of Treasure
Island. not due to any direct resemblance or reference, but due
to the concept and intriguing solution path.
on that note, when
you have solved this puzzle, you may not have solved this puzzle.
