Great to assemble and use.

I have built maybe a dozen wooden puzzle kits from various brands, 3 being lock boxes, and this is by far the one to choose. Decent difficulty to assemble, but the process to unlock it is intricate and very well hidden.

Awesome Product

UPDATED 04/16/24 - I have put together several of the Wood Trick products and each one was most enjoyable. You got a good feeling when each one was complete and everything worked as designed. My 6 year old great grandson helped me put together the bigger parts.All I can say about the Enigma Chest is "awesome". Assembly moved on pretty well and according to instructions until I got to installing part 131. The top hole for part 41 was cut too high and part 186 that was supposed to fit over the two part 41's on part 131 would not fit. It took me a while to figure out what the issue was. The top hole in part 131 was cut too high so it won't match up with the holes in part 186. Apparently this was not an isolated incident as I have seen numerous reviews with the same problem. I contacted Wood Trick and they are sending me a new board that has part 131 correctly cut. In the meantime I just left the top part 41 out and continued assembly. While assembling this chest, make sure to sand parts as needed, wax parts that move and double check part placement. It will save you a lot of headaches disassembling parts in the long run.For lubrication they give you a small piece of wax which works well on open, flat pieces. I found that for tighter spots the small candles that are used for butter warmers work great for tight spaces. Light the candle and use an old artists paint brush to get into the small, tighter spaces.When I finished my assembly, the box opened perfectly. Take your time, check and double check part placement and yours will open too. It's quite satisfying. Good luck!!!UPDATE: 04/16/24 - I previously contacted Wood Trick due to parts for the Enigma Chest that had holes in two different parts that didn’t line up, part # 131 and Part # 186.Wood Trick sent me the two boards, 5 and 7, with the two parts on them. After looking at the two part numbers, the issue is the same. The top hole in part #131 is cut too high which won’t allow the top hole in part #186 to line up with the top hole in part #131.Both boards were sent to me. Didn't someone look at them to verify the incorrect cut? There are many reviews on Amazon also identifying this issue. Apparently there is some sort of production error that is being ignored. In the meantime, I am waiting for a resolution so I can assemble my project correctly.

Extremely satisfying build

This build is for people who have patience and are looking for a challenging build. It takes some time to wax all the moving pieces which there are quite a few. However, taking your time on the waxing and sanding will make the locking mechanism much smoother.Tips from my 5 Wood Trick builds:- Use their YouTube videos - I highly recommend looking up the build from the official Wood Trick channel. Anytime I second guessed the instructions the videos cleared up the question every time.- Wax both the mechanism and the wood board that it comes into contact with. More wax, the better. A wax candle can be used as a sort of crayon.- Remove all spurs from gears and try to sand the teeth where necessary.- Use the included wooden tool as much as possible. There’s a few ways to use it shown in videos.

Excellent puzzle for advanced puzzlers

This puzzle is very sturdy and well designed. The instructions are fabulous, and as long as you have patience to sand and wax every moving piece, it will be great! Up to a certain part in the instructions, it will have you double-check that the gears are working properly. After that, everything doesn't work together until you have it totally together, so I wasn't sure if I was putting it together right. But after I finally assembled the lid, I left the lid open (just in case I needed to take something apart), and following the unlocking instructions, everything worked great! I was VERY happy I took the extra time to sand all the rough spots and wax ALL the moving parts. Because of this, I have a very fun combination lock box that very few (if any) people will be able to figure out on their own.You can see in the picture that I stained a few of my pieces to make it a contrast color and a bit more interesting. You can do what you want, just be careful to either dry the paint/stain, or make sure they are not part of a moving piece, because the wood may swell.This lock box is by far, my favorite puzzle to date, and I have put together many of these 3D wooden puzzles. I love most of them, and love that most have great directions. Wood Trick's instructions are wonderful, and it's very rewarding to get something like this put together. I highly recommend this puzzle, not only is it highly quality and has thick wood pieces, it's VERY fun, and VERY rewarding to complete.

Crappy

Didn't stay together fully and easily breaks but it did at least come with all the parts, wasn't missing anything but won't be buying from this group again.

Very Sturdy.

I am very impressed with the Wood Trick Enigma Chest. Compared to some of the other kits, from other manufacturers, this kit is very heavy duty. The pieces are nice and thick. Much less fragile and likely to accidentally break. The instruction sheet is very clear and easy to follow. I also watched the video tutorial that is available. Even a novice modeler will not have issues with this Box. There are over 500 pieces, but it is quite fun to work on. The engineering that went in to designing this Enigma Chest is amazing. Very clever.
