Impossible DoveTail Box

Thats good. I have seen the box before, but not with the magnetic latch.
 
Here's Clickspring's metal version. I'm with AvE, I'm not a fan of dead tree carcasses (although it's a popular wood project)! ;)

 
Metal version, even better., but not as elegant and surprising as the wood/magnet version., but I like it, just not as much. :)

I admit, I didn't even watch the video simply cause it was wood, haha. Often I judge too hard, not that I have anything against woodworkers, I just tend to skip past most of the wood related videos. But not all, I do watch some here & there, some really amazing stuff out there. I'll watch the video later tonight.
 
Wood is just another material and it does have a place in my workshop. I'm making a beautiful, mahogany drill/tool stand for my bench.
Maybe a wood/metal puzzle box? ;)
 
Here's my versions.
The pin was originally just spring loaded. When someone would solve the puzzle it would fly out.
I have since changed it so it is captive. The brass/copper/brass one I thought would look good with the end mill machining marks, but I think it would look better polished to show off the different colors of the metals better.
