A rather plain, metallic looking box, with an embossed shield on the top, without any visible moving parts. Yet this is another ‘sliding panel’ puzzle box. The shield itself has to be manipulated in order to get the lid off. The only moving parts are in the lid.
This is quite a precise little puzzle to make, and there are only 9 moves to get the lid off. However, it’s quite tricky to get off, because the shield seems to jam up now and again. That’s because the shield is in three parts, and the inside layers are interlocked.
The box measures 3” x 3” x 4”: the lid is made of 1/8” plywood and 3/16" Mahogany wood.
All pieces have been laser cut for assembly. Glue is NOT included.
PLEASE NOTE: *Because assembly directions are very precise and depending upon the kit, may be lengthy, each will be sent via email separately from the product kit.
Assembly will take some patience and attention to detail. Each kit has alignment pegs built into the parts to make assembly easier and virtually every part in the kit is labeled.
