Puzzle box
Well, I started to be interested in puzzle boxes from japan.

Sonobe modules are great (I built a level 1 Menger sponge out of them..woohoo!), but I think Tjips built a version of the Soma cube using his own new techniques. His version is under "construction set" which features an action model, the 30-degree Umulius Rectangulum (which I reverse-engineered to make a CP of) and some other cool things.
Kenogab, you're back! / How long has it been since you last posted? It must have been since Sunday the 22nd of October!
Wow, you really want to talk to Tjips, don't you ostranenie? Don't worry, I've contacted him to let him know that you wanted to talk to him.
Heres a site about puzzleboxes and other things... the second picture is the puzzle box. Fred Rohm has a puzzle box in his book "The World of Fred Rohm 2"

Kasahara's "Origami Omnibus" has some cool toy puzzle boxes in the n-sected cubes section near the beginning by the way. Don't know why I didn't think of that before...there's also a very cool "hypercube" that's an almost-action model (you open it and it just expands in height--it has an internally folded triangle bellows) in there. Good stuff! That's also the book that I learned regular modular polyhedrons from.

Anyway, cupcake has the thing I was talking about. I'd love to have one of those! They're so cool! Of course, It would be cooler if IT WAS MADE OF PAPER!(hint, hint...)

I suspect you could engineer a puzzle box from the Flexicube.
