    Default Difficult box

    My latest project. Gluing up the final joint was a bit tough but it seems to have worked out okay.

    Fan of Escher eh? When the box is finished, maybe you could move a bit upscale with something like:

    Not necessarily. I've seen one of these in real life. It's true.

    On a related matter, if you're a fan of M. C. Escher, check out the Droste Effect website. Some Dutch mathematicians took Escher's Print Gallery, which has a fuzzy white spot in the middle where Escher left the work 'incomplete':



    The mathematicians completed it:



    and produced a video that zooms right into the middle spot so you can see what is going on. Fascinating stuff.
    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    great job on the box joints.

    What type of clamps did you use?
