About this print
A set of three nested boxes styled after the Russian Matryoshka doll, each incorporating an internal maze labyrinth that must be solved before the layer can be opened. The puzzle structure requires navigating the mechanism through the maze to unlock each box in turn, making every layer a separate challenge. PLA prints cleanly with the tight tolerances needed for the maze walls and fitting lids, making it a straightforward material choice for this type of puzzle box.
