Very cool

Great puzzle box. I hope Puzzle Potato continues making more. Looking forward to the Houdini puzzle box. This particular puzzle was entertaining. Had to write down notes to help figure out some parts. The last step I figured out in error but ended up resetting it and figuring out the logic. All around great puzzle and worth the money.
