Penny Puzzle Boxes

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

These are two sizes of a puzzle box I designed and had printed by Shapeways.

It's a puzzle box that uses four US pennies as part of the locking mechanism.

To open, hold the box in one hand and quickly twist your wrist counter-clockwise. Or, set on a flat surface and spin the box in either direction.

Cool post. First time is see a puzzle like this.

Upvoted and resteemed. I used to have a puzzle stall in Covent Garden market... many many years ago.
