Halfway between the Steampunk Lock Box and the 4Words Cryptex (see my other projects), the Cryptex box requires four(4) 6-character words to free the cover locks. Once this step done, rotate the cover to unlock and open the box.

Cryptex Box

Pushes the Cryptex concept further in using up to 4 words to progressively open the vault.

4Words Cryptex

This project started when my neighbor's son lost his Rage Fire Belt. Couldn't find it anywhere!!!
They asked if I could help.

This project adapts the miniature lathe to the task of cutting threads on stock: aluminium, copper, bronze, etc (any soft material) (mild steel can also be cut, but with extreme patience...).

I had a need to handle long rods which exceed the usual stock length. Here is the project.

Miniature Lathe Centering Rollers

The original tool holder uses a 5/16-20 screw while the rest uses metric threads. Thus, one handle turn moves the attached tool 1.27mm forward/backward. Precision is quite difficult to attain when  drilling a hole to specifications.
NEW: pushrod.pdf: specifications for the pushrod parts.

This is a locked box, much as a safe: open the box to free what is locked inside. This project was freely inspired from a Youtube video by Chris Ramsay solving the TNT Steampunk lock box. Beware: Expert skill required! Enjoy!

Steampunk Lock Box

Some time ago, I found a watch I liked at first sight, though the watch strap was so-so.
So, I designed a new watch case and strap around the mechanism.
Since you may not find the exact watch to start with, I share this as a study.
Of course, this is print-in-place, no support.

I wondered how a box opened by moves would work. Keep print and assembly simple, mechanism out of the way, inside volume clear of obstacles.  Tell me what you think...
