Visible 3-Ary Drawer (Ternary) by Hiroshi Iwahara

The RF-60 Visible 3-Ary Drawer Puzzle box was created by Hiroshi Iwahara in August of 2018 and measures 79 x 87 x 75 mm with a storage space of 70 x 44 x 17 mm.

The crafter describes this amazing work in the following manner, " This work was designed for the Karakuri Puzzle Party in Hakone 2018.  It is possible to make items such as Binary or Ternary with a very clear design?"  I wondered about this so I decided to try and see if I could do it.  There are only 3 drawers.  It is a minimum number that we need to fully enjoy the system.  There are only 2 devices.  When you have solved the puzzle, you can finally open the bottom drawer.  The mechanism used for the RF-38 "Canon Chest" was used.  This is a drawer of the Ternary system.  It takes 18 moves to open (except for opening the lid).  When all 3 drawers are opened, you can open the bottom drawer."

Crafted in Walnut, Wendge, Padoauk, Maple and Acrylic Board.  Will arrive in gift box with solution.
