Knex Lock C.C.S.L

This is the eighth version of this (others not uploaded) about 2 weeks in making and this is hopefully the last one I have made now ccsl is a acronym for code cracking scrambling lock

or in other words a lock that you must un scramble and most would argue that it just has a password once open it can be opened again and again…right?

well the point of this is a unique challenge to your brain because it sets it’s own random password each time you open it and best part of all its mechanical no motors only gears and its able to be put in a safe if someone wants to but mainly just for cracking it open

Supplies

Lots of knex and time also I will upload a intractable of a automatic transmission

the transmission is either a cvt or ivt pretty sure it’s a ivt because it will stop for about a minute while the motor goes and then just start zooming up a hill and trying to stop it by hand is really hard and it’ll stop but then go and hurt your hand


back to the ccsl though

Frame build first because mech is really good at falling apart also the black gears are actually the big green ones but I 3d printed mine last part you need three and also make sure the spacing is like mine else it won’t work

Use

So basically the yellow things lock one of the wheel/tumbler pieces into place

and your goal without cheating as I did is to get the green bar thing all the way down and to scramble the code randomly lock one of the back to wheels in place not the front and then try to crack it




its been a while since I uploaded hope this gets me back ;)
