Camera - Karakuri work kit
Work Kit Karakuri Camera from KCGThis listing is for an unbuilt, new copy of Karakuri's Work Kit Camera puzzle box. This is originally created from 2013 and, to my knowledge, is no longer available. The photo also shows an example of a built copy with the wood stained to look more like a camera. It's a pretty fun box with a better mechanism than I had guessed, although it is still a relatively simple puzzle box. It's certainly a fun build though.-----Buyer is responsible for shipping whi...
