while not a difficult puzzle, it is incredibly made, as is expected by Kagen Sound (nee Schaefer).comes with instructions for replacing the paper inside the book, but not for opening the book.

Great design by Derek beautifully realized by Tom in two woods which I cannot identify for you but resemble bubinga (outer cubes) and robinia (maze cube), all joints dowelled for strength and the whole thing polished so that negotiating the 3D maze is as smooth as can be. A couple of small dents in one of the outer cubes which are hardly noticeable (see pic. 3).

Information from Rainer Popp:It reminds of some old American safes. The lock has a complex design and unique tricks. 5 Steps to open. Manufactured from Brass and Stainless Steel.
