Recommended Hardware

While the puzzle box can be assembled with only glue, the following hardware is recommended for improved puzzle box strength, a more satisfying puzzle mechanism movement, and a bonus secondary hidden compartment.

  • 12mm M3 socket head bolts - Qty 6
    Up to 24mm long is also acceptable
     
  • 6x3mm cylinder magnets - Qty 6
    Required for the bonus hidden compartment)
     
  • 3x3mm cylinder magnets - Qty 24
    Adds a satisfying snap to the puzzle mechanism.

 

Printing

  • Designed for 0.2mm layer heights and 0.4mm line widths.
  • All parts can be printed without supports.
  • Add a brim on smaller parts if bed adhesion is an issue. Warping may result in an unsolvable puzzle.
