Whomever can bust their way in, in the shortest time, while causing no damage to the contents and without breaking the vial, is teh winnar. Build a bunch of cryptexes (cryptexi?) with the vial smashing “security” feature. Such a security device is only of any real use against someone who cares about preserving the cryptex. Could probably just slice lengthwise on two sides and split it open. Even if it expands enough to break the vial, no problem as long as the cryptex is broken into while keeping it cold.Įven without all the fancy tricks, use some time and a Dremel with a cutting wheel to nibble into it. Cut an end or on a side?ĭrilling or milling, it would be best to figure out where the vial breaking system is. Or alternatively and rather less dramatic, clamp the cryptex into a specially made jig to hold all the parts still then put it on a milling machine and carefully start cutting.
#Building a cryptext movie
‘Course the movie left out the second cryptex inside the first one. No tempered glass when the thing was supposed to have been made. Should be possible with a high speed diamond burr/drill to put a hole through the glass without shattering it. Then the thing could be smashed apart to get at the paper. When I read that book and got to the part about the glass vial of vinegar and the message printed on papyrus, which the vinegar would supposedly destroy… I was thinking mount the thing in a jig at an angle then carefully drill up from underneath it into the glass vial while having a strong vacuum to pull the vinegar down and out so it won’t get to the paper.

#Building a cryptext download
You can follow step-by-step guide to build your own cryptex, or just download his model and start printing. Lining up the rings to spell the correct word allows the inner chamber to slide free of the whole assembly, revealing whatever goodies may lie inside. An outer chamber holds the rings in place and prohibits access to the interior chamber, which is held in place on both sides by an end cap. After embossing the alphabet across each ring, adds slots into the inner loops for pins to slide through. If you’re a regular reader of our 3D Printering column, then the behind-the-scenes screengrabs should look familiar: used Autodesk Inventor to sculpt the shapes, staring with the cryptex’s individual rings. Once you’ve dialed in your 3D printer calibration settings, you enter the phase of printer ownership where you’re eager to show off what you can make, and you’re sure to impress with 3d printed cryptex spinning around in your hands.
