Play where you work
My wife and I just moved from a one bedroom to a three bedroom. Moving is always an enormous pain in the hiney but there was one major upside: I got rid of the atrocious Ikea piece of garbage desk I’d been using for 8 years and bought a beautiful Spanish desk from Wertz Brothers. The desk has a false back in its topmost drawer, and a latch mechanism that keeps the side drawers from opening unless the center drawer is open. “It’s a Spanish puzzle desk!” said my friend Jeff Crocker.
But that’s not a puzzle desk: THIS is a puzzle desk.
Clues to the correct tune are held in a musical score that’s hidden in pieces within the desk. The journey begins with a concealed button for a secret panel. That opens to reveal a puzzle of sliding tiles which, when arranged in the right pattern, allow another drawer to open.
Amazing! Some day I’ll have one of those…
