| Description | |
|
This work was designed as a Christmas present for 2021.
Says the creator, "Since the introduction of the "pile disc" (M-12) in 1985, I have made various improvements. With this, I was finally able to create a stable mechanism. I have improved the structure without forgetting the basic principle that there is no axis for rotation in the center of the box." Woods used are maple, keyaki (zelkova), and rosewood. Catalog number is M-12-3. |

| Goal | |
