The Secret of the Cryptex

Thu, 2006-05-18 02:46 — kzeng

Finally my cryptex arrived today. It's a nice gift from Google and Sony Pictures. Do you notice that mine is slightly different from yours? Mine is fully functional because it uses five dials. Why? Because I "fireworked" the photo :-) Sorry for kidding you but the photo shows a way to make the cryptex fully functional. It only needs some metal work. Furthermore, you can reset the code that opens the cryptex. Steven has a good tutorial about it. So if you add three additional teeth and reset the code, you will have a real cryptex.

Geez, you got me, I thought you really got that great piece!
It's not that easy a job to add more teeth on it though I also want it. The way might be to see whether noblecollection has the part to substitute the key.
