Hey Mr. Puzzle, amazing video! It's always really cool and eye opening to see how my puzzles feel to someone coming in blind. I think I got a bit too excited cramming in mechanisms that didn't add enough to the solve, hopefully it made more sense during the reassembly😂 Anyway, thanks so much for showcasing my box, I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Oh and there's actually a way to use the little wedge piece to push the spring mechanism. If you drop it in a little slot on the side, then moving one of the faces will rotate a gear and compress the spring! Anyway, thanks again and keep on puzzling!
There's no such thing as gravity. It's simply buoyancy and density. If an object is denser than the medium surrounding it, it will sink. If it's less dense it will float.
Watching the logo piece jiggling while Mr. Puzzle is panicking over panels moving and not moving at seemingly random intervals. Of course, it helps knowing what the chosen title of the video is. Never gets old. ;-)
Really incredible. I'm continually impressed at how precise 3D printing has gotten, and the creativity it has inspired. This puzzle shows just how useful 3D printing can be in the right hands.
@Mr.Puzzle I design my own puzzle boxes and this inspired me to design more complex mechanisms and take the time to execute it to the best of my abilities. Your channel inspires me on a daily basis. Keep it up
Wow, that thing was amazing. What a brilliant job! I know you said it wasn't the most striking puzzle in your collection, but I really like the simple aesthetic. It's been a while since I've seen you struggle so much over a puzzle 😁
I came to the comments to look for flat earthers trying to explain this with density and buoyancy, cuz they don't believe in gravity. Still waiting for them to explain accelerometers.
I have a copy of this as well, very very impressive indeed! Definitely some cool and clever mechanisms involved. :) Btw, the springy mech has a much more elegant and cooler way to unlock it. ;)
Excellent puzzle! I bet you could even sell the 3D model as an .STL because I know my students would enjoy the challenge of not just solving a puzzle, but assembling one!
A lot of these 3d printed puzzles come out where they dont quite work correclty. Not this one though. Itnwoeked perfectly. Congrats to Alex, this thing is a masterpiece.
@1:00 IDEA. What if you took this idea of an optical ball, but the insides move based on magnets around it, you need to figure out the pattern of movements to make it into different designs 😀 A magnetic pedastal for it would be used to help change the inlay when reset properly.
I have a genius friend that's big into 3D printing who predicts that one day there will be a 3D printing singularity when 3D printers develop the ability to 3D print other 3D printers at which point its only matter of time until everyone will have a 3D printer eventually. I am waiting for that day then I will 3D-print this puzzle or some version of it and spread the word to teach future generations about the legendary puzzle masters of the pre-3D-printed world. He shall be named "Alexander the Great 3D-Printed Puzzle Master" and he shall inspire countless generations.
cool puzzle initial condition but the actual puzzle mechanisms were cheaply made and imho the playability of the solve was more of a chance operation. The prices coming disassembled made me think that it was another broken 3d printed puzzle. if there components didn't fracture easily than it would be a great puzzle mechanisms.
4/5 really- it seems that it was 5/5 my frustration though would be what is a tool vs a break off in the process of working through the puzzle- (seems to be common with this type of puzzle construction-3d printing.)thus if the tools can have color in some way then usage could be more helpful, and more directed discovery. also putting it back together would be next to impossible as the parts are to loose as a result it may only be a single solve . mechanisms were very challenging.
Great Job Christian! This is KANTIBUS. Here is the assembly video explained by Mowens to help you assemble it back. ruclips.net/video/UVrE_D6lVOk/видео.html I am no longer involved in this project though. Alex designed the spring to intentionally break if you do not do that move perfectly, first time. He thought it was funny, but I could not in good faith sell a puzzle that is designed to break. I made about 6 of them, very aesthetically pleasing, as I made it look like a childrens multicolored block with the gold katamari symbol, with a level 8 katamari ball inside. But half of the ones I sold had to have parts replaced, and I was printing them at 80% infill. (100 is brittle). So they will not be for sale unless Alex makes them, and even then, I would make sure he fixed the spring issue first.
Hi, I tried to send you a message in discord but it does not work for some reason. On my sample so part were broken. I was also able to get it back together in about 30min after solving it. I took the video thumbnail after the assembly, no parts were left over. 😜
Frankly, this needs to come with reassembly instructions; when pieces just fall out of random places, that's not really fair to the puzzler when it comes to resetting the mechanism.
Show the back of that giant marbe before you let viewers waste 400 Euros. It's just a giant marble that only looks good if you look at it in the correct angle. The other 75% of it looks a mess. It's just solid colour.
Unpopular opinion: I highly dislike this type of puzzle. There is absolutely no clue to open it, nothing that makes you think, nothing that guides you to the solution. It's just a box and the only way to open it is to do random things until something moves. There is no logical reasoning required at all.
@@Mr.Puzzle Don't get me wrong.. there are amazing ideas coming out of that.. but there is always the risk of breaking them. Was that supposed to come off? I'm a big fan of the Hanayama stuff.

This was so much fun! Thanks for letting me trying it! 😁👍
This is an absolutely amazing puzzle, I would love to get my hands on one!!
Everything can be opened if you apply enough gravity to a puzzle!
Added a thumbs up to increase the weight of this comment.
@@Deipnosophist_the_Gastronomer but it rises higher and higher!
Wait what 😂
gravity like use of a mallet as it falls due to gravitational pull of course!
There's no such thing as gravity. It's simply buoyancy and density. If an object is denser than the medium surrounding it, it will sink. If it's less dense it will float.
Amazing. I had no idea 3-D printing would expand on the puzzle building processes so much. We're lucky to have it, and Mr Puzzle
Oh yes!
The real puzzle is putting it back together. How very sneaky of Alex Owens.
This puzzle is insane, I can't believe how many parts there are! Great solve and I really enjoy the puzzle inside another puzzle design!

I've been a subscriber for years... best puzzle ever! Congrats to the makers and you, of course, Mr Puzzle 🙏 much love from an Australian puzzler ❤
Glad to hear that. Thanks a lot!
Good thing it was filmed, makes reassembly easier!!
Always glad to see that you posted a new puzzle video.
😎
This puzzle is absolutely cleverly made... what a brilliant piece of art!!!
Really incredible. I'm continually impressed at how precise 3D printing has gotten, and the creativity it has inspired. This puzzle shows just how useful 3D printing can be in the right hands.
I am also surprised how well this turned out, considering FDM is not really a precise printing process.
This is the most complex puzzle box that I have seen and it is a beautiful display of what a puzzle box masterpiece looks like
Agreed!
@Mr.Puzzle I design my own puzzle boxes and this inspired me to design more complex mechanisms and take the time to execute it to the best of my abilities.

@Mr Puzzle - The creator of this puzzle is a genius. Top work and I will be looking into buying one of these if possible.
Thanks chief great video
Thanks!

Thanks for sharing your logical puzzle solving!!
A great example of the skill of being able to visualize an object in three dimensions. Machine designers have this talent.
Later, the 5 1/2 hour video on reassembling the puzzle.
It was surprisingly "easy" to out it back together. 😅
This was really well put together! Watching you solve it was so enjoyable. 😊
I almost felt bad watching Mr. Puzzle being tormented by it! Almost.
Glad to hear that! 😁👍
This was great! I agreed with you on the tools. This was a great episode! KEEP ON PUZZLING
Absolutely astonishing puzzle. The complexity, detail and mechanisms are incredible. I would like to buy one please and thank you (take my money)!
Amazing designer behind this puzzle!
Absolutely 👍
Crazy insane but wonderful puzzle box. Cool small puzzle box inside.
I came to the comments to look for flat earthers trying to explain this with density and buoyancy, cuz they don't believe in gravity. Still waiting for them to explain accelerometers.
😂😂😂
Wow, this has to be one of my favorites. The complexity and engineering on this puzzle is fucking amazing. Great video 👌👌👌
Incredible! Deceptive in its complexity, but in a good way
I have a copy of this as well, very very impressive indeed! Definitely some cool and clever mechanisms involved. :)
Btw, the springy mech has a much more elegant and cooler way to unlock it. ;)
@0:50 it is an optical Globe, Designed to look like an eye with depth.
4/5.....geebers, I'd hate to see a 5! Putting that back together is looking like an 10 out of 5.
@12:12 Good luck putting it back together 😛
Excellent puzzle! I bet you could even sell the 3D model as an .STL because I know my students would enjoy the challenge of not just solving a puzzle, but assembling one!
For sure! 😊👍
A metal + version would be incredible!!
Oh, you're going to have such fun putting this one back together! 😂
Wow that’s an intense and amazing puzzle!
A lot of these 3d printed puzzles come out where they dont quite work correclty. Not this one though. Itnwoeked perfectly. Congrats to Alex, this thing is a masterpiece.
Who needs gravity when everything is relative .
Amazing engineering! Mind boggling!
@4:20 "HellRaiser" cube... LOL
Really well designed!

brilliant puzzle
Amazing puzzle ❤ good luck getting it back together 😮
Done! 😅
Agreed HT! My chances would be ZERO. 😂
A new video, awesome!
Last time I was this early, Excalibur hadn't been solved yet
It was solved right away on this channel. 😉
That is an amazing puzzle.
Good luck getting back together lol 😂
😂se io arrivassi a quel punto li.....butterei via tutto😂😂😂😂
Assembly 10/5
I love the part: Forget it, I have no idea... Hahaha. Cool puzzle from a designer side, but too random to solve and impossible to put back.
I also like that part when I cut the video. 🤣
Ok. So I've looked everywhere. Nothing seems to work for me. So, what's the chances of you doing an Excalibur ASSEMBLY video? 😅
Amazing!!!
To złóż zpowrotem w 1h jak taki kozak Jesteś...heheh Bo to rozłożyłeś sposobem prób i blędów...:) To złóż zpowrorem...hahah🤣😎😎😎

Holy cow! Almost seems like an AI design. This designer is genius!
Make that second box your next video... Just an idea.
Damn, now I want one.
Were you able to put it back on your own lol? How much time did it take?
Yes, it took about 30 minutes. I took the picture for the thumbnail after the reassembly. 😅
@@Mr.Puzzle This puzzle was surely one of the best! And to think of it as 3d printed, Woah!
Do you know the link to buy that cool glass sculpture you showed in the beginning? Or is that something that's not for sale ?
It's in the description on the very top
@@Mr.Puzzle sorry i don't know how I didn't see that. Thank you!
"How it sounds like"
That was a good one wow
If that were machined completely out of brass (or copper - but not aluminum), I would buy three of them regardless of the price.
i had a mental breakdown and after watching this and am currently in the psych ward of my local hospital .
I'm sending you the bill. 🤪
😁
I’m in 1686. Issac Newton hasn’t invented gravity yet. Is there some sort of workaround I can do?
Luckily if would work even before. 😅
Build a giant centrifuge, obviously.
Gravity was always there from the beginning of time, it wasn't invented so you should be good to go with this puzzle at any date 😁
Only 4? Seems like a 6 to me.
@11:00 it loooks liek that mechanism was designed to be spun for that step 😛
Damn, we are yet to experience gravity so this puzzle is impossible /s
How can I contact you? I make puzzles and my first puzzle to be sold is ready. I'd like you to try it.
I would be interested in one of your puzzles. How to purchase??
@@tomfrederiksen3082 im gonna put them on my site soon.. so link will come soon.

It took me around 30 min to reset it. No damage on any parts.
Give that one a miss 😂
*Someone needs to make a puzzle that requires Zero-G so that only an astronaut can solve it* 🤣
comunque una buona mazza da baseball....risolve tutto😂😂😂😂😂
Looks like putting it back together might be 5/5 difficulty if you don't record everything...
Jak myślisz, kto zaprojektował tę Puzzle, człowiek czy sztuczna inteligencja?
I was disappointed that you gave it 4/5 for difficulty, it looks like a 5 to me! After all, you have to get it back together!
🤯🤯🤯🤯
what happened to the original intro?
What do you mean?
@@Mr.Puzzle Like the way you used to say "hello and welcome back to mr.puzzle" you changed the way you say it.
Great Job Christian!
This is KANTIBUS.
Here is the assembly video explained by Mowens to help you assemble it back.

I am no longer involved in this project though. Alex designed the spring to intentionally break if you do not do that move perfectly, first time.

So they will not be for sale unless Alex makes them, and even then, I would make sure he fixed the spring issue first.
I noticed it skipped 2 minutes ahead at that part, so maybe you are aware as well.
The spring is activated by placing the wedge into the slot assigned to it.
