Selling my copy of one of the 12th Karakuri Box Idea contest - Ironing, hand crafted by Hideaki Kawashima. This is a very thematic puzzle and functions perfectly.
NOTE: this copy has an internal repair done by me.
Due to use of screws in the puzzle, there was a slight crack in the internal mechanism of the puzzle when it arrived, which has been glued shut back. It works perfect and there is no cosmetic issue at all to the puzzle either. The final 2 pictures show the internal repair in a non-spoilery manner - a single crack, clicked from 2 different places. The outside of the puzzle is in pristine condition! Comes with original box and solution.
Here is the description from the site:

This work was produced by Karakuri Creation Group’s craftsmen, from a selected idea of “12th Karakuri Box Idea Contest”.
The size of the plug and iron are overtly emphasized. Please enjoy the unbalance.
The knob on the drawer is cute and is designed as a button.
Think
about the mechanism... If there is no electricity the iron can’t work.
When you figure it out, the drawer will finally open.
Original idea by Yuri Nishikawa
Hand-crafted by Hideaki Kawashima (Karakuri Creation Group)
