This kind of puzzle is what got me hooked to your channel. All the super expensive puzzles are cool too, but I like this chill solving very much. It's calming and engaging at the same time.
As soon as he said he needed more leverage I was like oh hey I bet that black knob unscrews and would fit. Drove me insane when he was turning them at the same time and didn’t make the connection
I recently rediscovered this channel after 4-5 years of not watching it and this is the first video I’ve watched since I came back and I’m just so glad to hear this guys soothing voice again.
I got addicted to this channel because of sequential puzzles years ago… but then i fell in love with his magic…. and suddenly area 52… This guy is a huge creative talent… Much love and support from Germany! Thank you so much for your time Chris!! ❤
@@andrewortega66 I know, right?!?! I have a whole shelving setup of the puzzles I've solved but the most expensive one was like $80 because the super awesome seq disc ones are like hundreds or thousands of $$$...which I totally get because of all the work and thought that goes into making them.
36:00 minutes into the video (2 days into the puzzle) I love hearing you working out - not only to us, but to yourself - the process of thought that goes into deconstructing what the creator was thinking. I love it!
I love watching you describe, work on & complete these types of puzzles. The diagrams & to your excitement working on and completing it add to the fun. It was such a perfect break time of my day!! Thank you, Chris!! ❤😁
I like having these videos playing in the background at work. The way you talk through the stuff breaks up the quiet without needing me to watch what you are doing
We need another puzzle from this creator. What a great puzzle!! 🔥🔥🔥 Side note: I honestly don't remember seeing you lift that silver top piece in the first half of the video from day 1 & 2.... hmmm. I'm gonna have to rewatch that a second time.....🤣🤣🤣things that make you go hmmm. But i also watched it over 3 days.
Loved your diagrams. They made sense. After day one began to think that the wood may have warped over time and was making it a bit harder than originally intended.
Ive seen every puzzle viseo you have chris and this one is one of the coolest. I recently got the davy jones puzzle you did awhile back and that was a doozy. I hope to see more of those wooden puzzles in the future
Avid watcher of your videos. I this one one pop up, and I immediately stopped it, order the puzzle and it arrived at 11am today. I have JUST completed it and re built it. Feeling very chuffed that I was able to complete this, I obviously learned from the master - thank you Chris!
It's great to see how far you've come Chris in this art of life. I remember the very 1st set of cards you sold. I was broke as a joke back then, I wanted a pack of those cards SO bad, I know they'll be worth something to (not only me) but a LOT of people one day, if not already. Man I sure wish I had a chance to get your first 1st decks. It's ok, I know what it felt like back then, it was such a glorious time for you.. I'm so glad man.. you've worked super hard and totally deserve everything positive in life. Best to you Chris, I love your content man!!
Wow - what a cool puzzle 🤯 I admire your determination, Chris 🤘 Great video - great solve 🤘. Also, I have the escape game and can confirm the deck is awesome (the ace of spades is really cool)
Can you interview Yuu Asaka. There no videos of him on RUclips. It would be fascinating to hear and see how he comes up with them and the way his mind works. Have you ever thought about interviewing puzzle creators?
Let me get this straight. The wood got warped and made it difficult to move a piece and since Chris didn't want to force anything he needed to get help to understand how to proceed? What the? That's terrible!! I'd be totally annoyed if I paid hundreds for a puzzle with a defect like that. Reaction from Chris: "Oh well. It's nobody's fault!?" Everyone in the comments: "Cool puzzle!"
@@ricktube221 agreed. not worth the price of $400+ if a defect could happen as easily as that. plus, it looked like the tools were too small and made the whole puzzle difficult to handle as well.
It's such a shame that builders sometimes think of aesthetics instead of functionality. The wood was a problem that made them extra money and made the puzzle more beautiful.... But wasn't needed. It nearly broke it. I really, really enjoyed watching you figure it out though.
I really like watching Chris solve sequential puzzles. As you explain your thought process, many times I am left shaking my head and wondering “how did you think of that?”
15:20 As a mechanic, I fricken love this thing already…. If it was easier to get one I’d stop the video here so I could figure it out on my own! Haha. Keep doin what ya do man! 👌👍
Spoilers ahead: This puzzle seemed like a big mess, as if nothing was working properly. So much of this was so difficult for you to manage, and even when you were able to pull the lever, and release the gold coins, it didn't show a jackpot reading on the panel, which I thought it should've.
Lots of the solve was botched or forced. I’ve seen another solve video of this and you do have to line up the logos if you’ve done it properly and not forced things 🤷🏻
32:55 You aligned the logos but I thought you first had to acquire a silver coin and / or an ID pass (?) Maybe you went a few steps ahead too soon 🤭 Love watching your videos, been doing so for years now and never gets boring. Thanx a million 💜🍀
I was thinking it would be cool if you edited in a cartoon computer drawing\animation that shows what you're drawing or what you're trying to describe. Thought you'd like the idea. And in the editing process you could make it look better than the in-the-moment scribbles.. just brain storming.
Haven't watched your vids in couple months. I paused the video right at the start to comment on it. Ill let you know if i like the video in an hour. Simple yet complicated. Another banger video. love your content bro.
35:55 - Something fits perfectly where it seemingly isn't doing f*ck all. "So bizarre!" 😆😂Frustration kicking in. I'm literally crying I'm laughing so much, hahaha...
Woodwarping can break so many puzzles especially when force is usually not necessary.. makes you wish the mechanic components are more encased in material that doesn’t warp by thermal expansion.
This is my first time ever shouting at the screen like you always used to say. I was shouting about the handle probably being the tool you needed for that brass screwdriver piece lol
( not sure if spoilers since i havent fully watched the video yet but, most likely not spoilers ) The glass being the last moving part of the puzzle as all the other parts moved really just pushed a mini scale in position to catch the glass and add weight to open the trap door 😅 Side note - im not sure why but im not getting notifications about you're videos. Not sure if it's RUclips side, my side or your side... Either way, I always check back after a few days just to see what's new.
He should have made that longer screw from the handle go into the light, poking through the metal plate that lifted-up... So screwing the light back in, it would protrude and unlock the "slide" ability of the light or some other new step. (Unless that wasn't actually intended to come out of the handle.) He could have also made the handle press into the bushing, so it pushes a bearing in the bushing. That could have added another step. I think the logo was there, intentionally, to make you think, "I gotta remove this handle, so it doesn't keep hitting the logo." Though he should have purposely made the logo protrude more, so it impeded the lever from spinning around completely, for a more obvious "I must remove this". That's the biggest flaw in most wooden "slide" puzzle-boxes. Humidity expansion and contraction. Too much humidity and it locks things in place, too little humidity and it exposes all the "loose" things. That's why they invented plastic and wood-oils and wood-waxes and leaf-springs, to help keep things tight, but still be movable. V2 Will be better, I am sure. This one looked fun, to watch it make you go mad!
i was hoping that after you solved it and put it back together, you could somehow pulled the lever and have the slots "spin" like a real mechanical slot machine. Have no idea how that would ever be possible, so not surprised it didnt happen, but would have been really cool. Solving the puzzle would turn the box into a "working" slot machine.
I found this video very, very intriguing. I do feel though they way over did the commercials though and also there are some they put in very inopportune places, like right in the middle of when he discusses very critical factors in solving the puzzle. Very, very intriguing puzzle though. I enjoy stuff like this. Theodore
This puzzle reminds me of almost every Consumer product. Vacuum, power tool, tv etc. in that when it breaks, you sometimes want to tear that product apart and try to fix it. But it generally goes just like this. Just when you think you have all the nuts and bolts off, you forgot one hidden bolt or didn’t disassemble another necessary part first.
I don't know why but i enjoyed this video alot maybe because of details explained by you or i started like solving complex algorithmic problems in my field 😂
Thank you for a great review. Although i doubt it was reset properly before you solved it .and one other issue with the card retreaval. But still a great review
I was another one that was saying the tool had to be part of the handle. Then you found it. After that you found a second tool in the handle. That was really cool how they made the handle with two tools. Great puzzle and fun to watch you solve it. I am wondering if you fixed it when you got the 3 coins out?
Hi there, I've been following for a little while now. Honestly, I neither like or dislike. I admire the effort. Keen on how tricky the puzzle was. Yet, all the while, which is a shame to say, yet due to culture's attitudes. Seemed a little lengthy. That said, I admire and respect your efforts and puzzling. I'm looking forward to the next. Keep up the good work.
🤔This puzzle is a metaphor for my life....day after day of constant shafting, being manipulated, pushed poked and prodded around....always going one step forward and two steps back, always feeling like your left with more questions, always hoping for that jackpot🙆🤦😜

2:10 "Before we start, let's take our time here." Little did he know how true this statement would become.
Hah, your right, lol! I love his puzzles
3:01 > "It used to have a sticker that said 'Do Not Press' and I pressed it"
Oh, Chris... You're such a rebel
"This piece of glass here, it used to have a sticker saying 'do not press', and I pressed it, and the glass fell off." lol
Yeah and if the glass says do not press don't press on the glass
@@travislapham3479but what if you want to push it?
@@E.EE. push it softly 😅
@@newt3546 but what if I want to push it hardly
@@claires1063then firmly grasp it
For the first 15 minutes i was screaming at the screen "undo the black knob off the arm!". What a relief when you finally did 😂
Same
It made me feel so smart that I caught that before he did!
spoiler alert!
As soon as he said he needed more leverage I was like oh hey I bet that black knob unscrews and would fit. Drove me insane when he was turning them at the same time and didn’t make the connection
Yup. Me too.
I recently rediscovered this channel after 4-5 years of not watching it and this is the first video I’ve watched since I came back and I’m just so glad to hear this guys soothing voice again.
I really admire your passion for these and being able to verbally walk us through your thought processes
YESSS!!!! I really wish there was an unlimited supply of sequential discovery puzzles because I could watch you solve them every single day.
I got addicted to this channel because of sequential puzzles years ago… but then i fell in love with his magic…. and suddenly area 52…
This guy is a huge creative talent…
Much love and support from Germany!
Thank you so much for your time Chris!! ❤
I just wish I could afford one

Aaah! Some vintage puzzling! Looooved it. Feel free to do more of these. I’m so on board!
Hey, respect to the people that put his videos together. They do their thang. Especially on the openings...
I like having these videos playing in the background at work. The way you talk through the stuff breaks up the quiet without needing me to watch what you are doing
Good 😊
Am i the only one that appreciates that if we cant see something he draws it, such a sweetheart!!!!
Some people follow Chris for his magic and cardistry. Most follow for the puzzle solving. True intellectuals follow for his artwork.
Indeed. The nature of his hand drawn artwork is quite the perplexing spectacle 🧐🍷
This was a fun puzzle!!! Difficult for sure!!! Thats why your the puzzle master! Music on point as usual… thank you!:)
Watching Chris solve puzzles is like therapy for me, so relaxing...the whiskey helps too
as soon as chris starts drawing, you know it’s getting serious
haha
I was screaming unscrew the slot handle and you finally did it. Thank you for that
This explains why burglars just carry hammers. LMAO
Currently going through a break up of 5 years and all I’ve done nonstop is watch your vids.. these videos really help keep my mind off things.
We need another puzzle from this creator. What a great puzzle!! 🔥🔥🔥
Side note: I honestly don't remember seeing you lift that silver top piece in the first half of the video from day 1 & 2.... hmmm. I'm gonna have to rewatch that a second time.....🤣🤣🤣things that make you go hmmm. But i also watched it over 3 days.

What a challenge! Enjoyed this video, music, frustration, and solve!!! Fantastic video!!!!!! Thank you!

Hey Chris. You really need to open a museum for your puzzle collection. Id come, im from Sweden!
Great puzzle Chris. Love you solving it.
Thanks for the journey.
The real Chris is back!! It’s so nice to see it! ❤ For a second I thought I was watching one of your OG videos
the craft of this puzzle is incredible. so beautiful! can't wait to finish this episode!
I had this playing while I was trying to write. Kept looking over at the vid thinking, dude is struggling. Glad you had fun despite some struggle!

It helps when you follow the instructions and don't blame temperature after owning the puzzle for days.
even the creator of the puzzle said it was messed up tho?
Love watching you solve puzzles, very entertaining
Been watching for almost a decade.. still loving the vids!
I used to just put his videos on because his voice would put me to sleep..God I'm such a a weirdo 😂
32:55 You aligned the logos but I thought you first had to acquire a silver coin and / or an ID pass (?)
Maybe you went a few steps ahead too soon 🤭
Love watching your videos, been doing so for years now and never gets boring. Thanx a million 💜🍀
This might be my new favorite puzzle! So cool!

Amazing solve! The engineering behind it is so complex!
Also hour long videos this is definitely a favourite already 😍🙌
Absolutely love this puzzle. Thanks Chris
The deductive mind is fascinating to me. I love listening to you working it out. I'm a HUGE fan!

Another great puzzle solve. Love your videos. Keep em coming
love your videos , been off work with my back for the last week and i have watched nothing else , except the iron claw ( great movie by the way )
glad you are popping back up on my feed! :)
Love your content!
Great video. Amazing puzzle! Amazing solve process. Thank you Chris!
This is my first time ever shouting at the screen like you always used to say. I was shouting about the handle probably being the tool you needed for that brass screwdriver piece lol
Calming voice ❤ I love every bit of your voice and it keeps me watching ❤
I loved this puzzle! Well done for persevering Chris!
Awesome puzzle! I really enjoyed watching this solve! 😊
Love your pen Chris!
so nice to see you going again, so proud of you
Very nice ;puzzle. I liked how you showed the reset aswell.
( not sure if spoilers since i havent fully watched the video yet but, most likely not spoilers )

Looks like he forgot to scramble the reel again when he reset at the end, so the next person that plays it will already have the jackpot aligned.
So excited to watch this!
22:26 Finally! Been saying twist the black knob since he messed with the light on top

Love all your puzzles!!!

If you write down the spacing between the 7s and the logo, then calculate where to spin it so all the logos line up?
