We didn’t design this model. It’s a community file from its original creator, and now and then a file has a fault that only shows up when we print it, such as walls that are too thin or parts that don’t join properly. If that happens we’ll let you know and try to fix the file, which can add a day or two. If we can’t get a good print from it, we’ll refund you in full.

Good to know before you order

TPU has a £11.50 print-order minimum. ABS, ASA, PC, Nylon and PETG-CF have a £46 minimum; PA-CF has a £69 minimum. Delivery is shown separately in your cart.

Need a few parts? Add them to one cart. One order minimum and one postage charge cover the cart: £6.90 for standard materials, £11.50 with TPU, £46 with ABS, ASA, PC, Nylon or PETG-CF, or £69 with PA-CF.

Please check the model files include everything you need before ordering. We print the files as published by the creator, so you receive the parts in the model, not necessarily a finished assembly shown in any photos. These are community designs by their original creators; we manufacture and post them but cannot guarantee fitment for your specific appliance or use case - check the original design page for compatibility.

About this print

A puzzle box with a concealed internal maze, meaning the user cannot see the labyrinth while attempting to solve it. It is available in two versions, one with multiple routes that can lead to backtracking, and one with a single solution and numerous dead ends. The box also functions as a secret container once opened. PLA prints this complex geometric design reliably, though accurate print tolerances are important for smooth internal movement.

Original maker's notes

** NOTE 3/05/2018 **
The_Fish has kindly remixed this design, fixing the tolerance issues noted in the comments below. Please refer to their remix here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2770314
** End Note**

This is quite a large and complicated maze box. It's different to other maze boxes as you cannot see the maze as you are solving it.

I've included a couple of versions of the Outside maze section. Version A has a few solutions that can cause you to backtrack accidentally, and Version B has only one solution and lots of places to get lost.

I would love to see any makes of this, and any recommendations for future versions.

H x D: 165mm x 80mm

Printing Blind Puzzle Box

For Blind Puzzle Box we would normally reach for PLA — it is easy to print, low-odour and plenty strong for everyday use. We set the layer height, wall count, infill and supports to suit the model and how you will use it, and those choices are already priced into your instant quote. Want a specific colour or material? Tell us and we will match it where we can.
