4 Sun 8 Step
A realistic looking Japanese puzzle box, realistic not only in looks but also in size and operation. A “sun” is a Japanese measurement of about 1.22 inches, but is only an indication of the length of the box, not the width or height.
This is a very easy puzzle to make, as all the cuts are straight cuts, with only one inside slot. No plywood used here:the whole thing is made from 1/8” basswood. The box is not too difficult to open. This is an ideal puzzle to make as a first attempt.
The box measures 4-3/4” x 3-1/4” x 2-1/4” and is made from 1/8" wood and 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.
