I created this routine a couple years back while playing with my son, Sebastian. One of his toys involved a bunch of boxes which fit into one another (some sort of developmental thing). The game quickly became: Daddy builds a tower and toddler knocks it down. Hours of fun for a one-year-old, but it gets a little tedious for the tower builder. So of course, being me, I start experimenting with slightly different tower configurations, just to keep it interesting. Before too long, I came across this 45-degree stack which collapsed entirely into itself with a beautiful right-left-right tick-tocking effect. Eureka moment.
I immediately told my wife that she would have to watch the kids and headed directly to my basement workshop. Six trips to The Home Depot and a hell of a lot of sawdust later and I had a new routine. Must have broken those things apart and glued them back together a thousand times learning it. I still travel with clamps and glue.
