    If someone hasn't mentioned, the hole in the side of the ink well is for airflow. The ink won't run otherwise as there would be an airlock

      Plus pens have to be put in a centrifuge during production to enable ink flow. Many moons ago used to do maintenance building work on a local pen factory CONWAY STEWART and really interesting to see the processes in producing a simple everyday object.

    Thanks Chris for solving my puzzlebox pen. Spoiler alert, I just insert screw into the black cylinder casing and reinsert the pen barrel. Now you have a tool which you can put into the upper pen, turn a few times until resistance is felt and pull out the nylon teflon cylinder, Wallah! Your variation is cool too. One day you may get your hands on my latest ze Tooth Fairy Puzzle box. 10 move sequential discovery tooth looking structure , remove the drawer ( like a bandsaw box). Last step you have to do root canal surgery. A good puzzle for my dental colleagues and puzzle friends, you won't be dissapointed, cheers,You make me famous,,,,Stephen Chin from Sydney Australia

      The funny thing is that I am pretty sure that this is just a pen. It's been modified to act as a puzzle-box, but I think the plastic plug, screw, and driver bit were just added to normal pen hardware.

    Looks like a foil back, though I might've just been seeing the reflections of light off the bottom facets as silvery. If it's completely clear, you'd have to look at it under a loupe or have it tested.

  • @chorlesteajones6794
    @chorlesteajones6794 Месяц назад +1

    I was sitting here screaming at you to combine the small pieces because I use to turn pens into 'dart guns' in high school. Basically you remove the spring from the ink cartridge, put it on the other end of the cartridge where the clicker was then pull down on the cartridge and aim it at something and let go. You could sometimes launch them across a room with the right spring. Got in trouble on several occasions but never kicked out of class. My science teachers loved to hate me for being so creative. 🤣

  • @apollolux
    @apollolux 2 месяца назад +2

    Don't know if someone else commented it already, but if the stylus part is actually functional then the "screw" is likely made of copper or other similarly conductive material and is what actually "clicks" capacitive touchscreens, whereas the rubber/silicone is there to protect the screen from getting scratched by the metal.

Also watching you walk through all the different possibilities, and wondering if I were to solve it if given the chance. I love that your idea to "re-construct" the pen in a NEW way was the key to success! Awesome stuff dude. keep it up!!!!!!
