Another type of puzzle box.

The way this puzzle works is you dump the pieces on the table and tell the person they have to get all the pieces back in the box and be able to close the box. They try and it seems easy. Then you pull the last block out of the top (it has a hole to push the block out) and tell them "Sorry I forgot to give you this one".

Pretty box, and looks interesting. Does the top piece actually fit inside the box with the lid on?

No, he wanted me to join in, but I'm working on my lathe skills and I'm obsessed with it. I'm just about finished with a open segment type bowl.

Send him a box anyway... he'll be chupped and you'll win a friend for life.  He'll probably come to your place and give some personal lathe lessons... he'll probably even turn that bowl for you.

You know you can make boxes on the lathe, right? Think: nested, lidded turned boxes…and go

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Round boxes with lids, they are fun to turn.
