Chinese Torture
The box is 3” square, with two panels on each side. Every
outer panel can move, but none of the inner panels can move at
first. By moving all of these pairs of panels, you can
eventually remove one pair of panels, opening the box.. There is no
obvious starting point, and if you move the wrong panels first,
the box will lock. Even if you find the correct panels first, you can
still lock the box, but you won’t know this, because everything seems
to be working! 13 moves to open, if you know how. Extremely difficult
to solve!
Cutting: easy. Assembly: Not too bad. Size of the box is 3” by 3” by 3”
and is made from 1/8" plywood.
This BH puzzle kit has alignment pegs built into the parts to make assembly easier and virtually every part in the kit is labeled. The plans for this kit are free.
