Single-Barrel Side-By-Side [SBSBS], copy #007

A beautiful beech box by Doogaloo Games / Doog Menzies!

Copy #7 of 48.

-

An unassuming exterior hides a baffling conundrum, within!

This one has light sequential discovery elements, but I'm not sure if I'd categorize it in that camp, fully.

SBSBS reminds me of the much more rare 'Maths Box' by Doog, as well. Aside from the typical mechanical subterfuge going on, there's something extra lurking within this box, which I dare not spoil!

Like most of Doog's work, this measures approximately W6in x D3.75in x H3.15in large (W150mm x D95mm x H80mm), and is a hefty, solid bit of dense wood construction. Rustic and robust, I cannot imagine anything ever breaking it, given that it's made of sturdy wood and metal fittings.

From Doog's description:

"Everyone likes a play on words that results in an entertaining puzzle name. A passing interest in shooting and you will understand the contradiction.

GOAL - Remove the lid.

Made to finer tolerances than any of my previous boxes, there is absolutely no force required. Every element is hand-tuned to be snug, but not tight.

I trust you will appreciate me pushing my designs and workmanship to the next level.

Good luck
Doog"
