... and do they exist?

.... and why would you want one?

You just need a wizard's hat to go with your conjurer's shirt!

I was listening to R4ex 'Sorry I haven't a Clue' yesterday morning and a pop up book was mentioned.

I thought that a pop chess book would be great. Instead of a diagram you would get this 3d board 'popping up.'

I began thinking about how to do it but I must have missed that episode of 'Blue Peter'.

So I gate-crashed a group of innocent Edinburgh students having their lunch and showed them my mock pop-up book.

Now we know it's a spoof - no such thing as an innocent Edinburgh student (Edinburgh PhD 1979 - 83)

I think you need to check continuity on the table a little more closely. And get the student on the right to take her watch off.
