### Overview
In February of 2025, three CMR students participated in the BYU Engineering Student Innovator of the Year Competition with an unique fidget box that uses [LET Joint](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6815297) technology developed by the CMR.
Because it's all printed in one piece, it simplifies assembly and has a unique look! Now you can print your own fold-up box!
###Technical Information
The root concepts of this design were published in Mechanism and Machine Theory in November of 2009.
