But, getting to the key is only part of the puzzle. You’ll need to unblock the mechanism that lifts the lid by turning the key to the left before removing it - setting the gears in motion!

This was so satisfying! We made the box as part of our date night over the past few weeks. Near the end we made a mistake and thought the whole project was doomed but we managed to retrace the build back to the mistake and correct it without breaking anything. Finally, we put the key in the lock and everything started moving so smoothly! Someone said they used wax to help them push pins in, we sanded down a bit the sides when pushing felt too resistant. And we used a lot more wax than what was in the box - we actually used the cheap little white candles you find in big shops in large packs. They're softer.

I love this box. It was a little hard to build once my thumb started hurting, but other than that it was awesome to build

Another five star review to add to the pile... A great model, the mechanism works perfectly, though I have to add that I rather obsessively rubbed all surfaces that would potentially have gears or other surfaces moving against each other with a candle. All holes that had anything turning in them I lined using the shavings I got from rubbing with the candle. This thing was really fun to build! And I still end up sitting down and opening and closing it just for fun. On top of that, it's really pretty and it's really satisfying watching the gears moving when you open and close it.

I finished this the other night! It took me quite a long time to finish, since it was my first model of this type. I wanted to make sure the pips were sanded down and the gears were waxed, so that was a contributing factor. I'm running into an issue, though, where I unlock it complerely, turn the key to make the top raise up, but the lid looks like it's sticking on the back right section. It needs a bit of a nudge to get going, but other than that, I love it! I'm a big fan of decorative, but functional, pieces, and the fact that this is a puzzle box is a plus. It's gorgeous and I really like it :) Definitely enjoyed this Christmas gift.
