| Description | |
|
The Transparent Lock looks kind of like, well, a padlock you can see through. Even with everything apparently visible, anyone experienced with Gary Foshee's puzzles knows there is always more than meets the eye. It is a fun experience and definitely shows the creativity and humor always present in Gary's puzzles.
After the first batch was made and quickly sold out, a second was made available during IPP 32 in the summer of 2012. It is made of aluminum and stainless steel. |
