I purchased this second hand and solved it a couple times. It is a very enjoyable puzzle box! Tough to let this one go. Iroko and holly version."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 came out of the design session with some solid ideas, wh...

I was feeling rather "Blah" about my failure with DDD and decided to name t...

And closing it again afterwards takes a bit of thought as the solution seems, in more ways than one, to be physically impossible at first glance. Keyaki(zelkova), Magnolia, Wenge.

The cartesian wallet returns for a limited time! These sold out a while back but I had several requests for them so I decided to make another batch.

Frankly these are tedious to make so I'm doing this one batch and once they're gone they're gone - I don't plan on making more in the immediate future. Here's the story on them...Akio and I were having a beer during IPP in Prague in 2008 and he showed me his inte...
