Lament Configuration

A box where you stand bent over, with the hands and feet locked in the box.
There is a handled to be able to stand a little less bent. The lock is opened with wingnuts.The top is two layers, to make it thicker and less prone to chafing.
Note that you are not very stable in it, and can't catch yourself with your hands if you fall. So, for safety, either use it positioned so that forward falls land on some soft furniture, or screw it to a bigger base.
It is meant to have the sides laser engraved with the pattern of a Lemarchand Lament Configuration, also known as the "Hellraiser puzzle box", which is why there is an outer covering layer, as laser engraving don't work over screw heads.
