Ok, I know this is going to sound downright silly, but I'm curious.
Is it possible, or have any of you seen plans for, puzzle boxes, crypto boxes, etc.
Used to be (read this in crypto book) that there were these boxes that were like combination locks. Divinci designed one that stored a scroll inside it (or so the stupid movie suggests) and I've been fascinated by them ever since.
Also, if you have seen the hellraiser movie there is (of course hollywood fx) box that looked interesting. I wondered if one could build one (of course the movie version was all special effects) that you would take it apart by rotating halves or corners, pulling pieces out as you go.
These are close cousins
Also was thinking about a cedar jewlry box with a combination lock on top made out of wooden icons/characters that you turn to align the mechanism to unlock it. Looking for plans, etc.
