Zipper Box

Legend has it that this wooden zipper box was crafted by a mystical woodworker who was tired of his jacket always getting stuck, legend has it that he goes by Pat Kaufmann. Determined to solve the problem once and for all, he took to his workshop and vowed to create the smoothest, most satisfying zipper ever made—one that would never snag, never break, and most importantly, never get caught on his beard.

After months of meticulous woodworking, he finally unveiled his masterpiece: a zipper that does actually zip anything and works flawlessly every time! It was so smooth and satisfying to use that people lined up at our Americana 2025 contest just to slide it back and forth. Some say it’s the most addictive thing since bubble wrap. Others believe it holds the secret to infinite patience.

One thing’s for sure—once you start zipping this beauty, you may never stop. Consider yourself warned. 😆🔨
