Cardboard Cryptex

Made this in my spare time for a treasure hunt I was working on. This was the first version of the cryptex I made. Later on I made a plastic solid version that I actually carved into and used in the treasure hunt.

[Gaddian]

hahaha! I'd remove your comment because of the cuss (I like to keep everything g-rated for my nieces) but I think that was pretty funny. How about YOU make a metal cryptex with scissors, glue gun and cardboard as your only materials to work with, and let me know how it goes. :) Seriously though - not everyone has metal working skills, metal working tools, and spare metal lying around with which to play.

Hugely impressive girly. How long did it take you to make???

[Gaddian]

Thanks! I think it took about 3 hours. Maybe 4. Don't remember exactly.

Thanks Gaddian,,,,,,

It's still coming. I haven't forgotten. Life just gets busy. I will try to post it by the end of the week. :) (Also, it's only made from cardboard and magazines, so it should be things you will be able to locate.)

u may want to put a vial of vinegar in it so when someone tries to destroy it, it dissolves the ink on a papyrus paper.
