Pragmatic Puzzle Box
thingiverse
This is a puzzle box that requires rotation to unlock. The mechanism holding the lid in place is itself locked by eight 6mm BBs, which can be created with a 3D printer or inserted during printing. A simple spin on a flat surface allows the lid to twist 20 degrees, enabling it to be removed. However, closing and locking the box requires no special tricks; simply insert the lid and twist it to lock. I designed this puzzle box from scratch with a few ideas in mind: Opening is easy if you know the trick, yet impossible otherwise. Closing is simple; the box can be locked without using the unlocking trick. It looks like a box but provides no hints, and it feels solid and enjoyable to use.
