Thank you for your detailed explanation! I am in awe of your design and appreciate all the hard work! I plan on creating 3d printed puzzle boxes myself, and this is inspiring stuff.
Thank you! Puzzles are THE reason I started 3D printing, so I'm glad to hear when those designs do well. Good luck with your puzzle designs in the future :)
I'm not big on puzzles or puzzle boxes for that matter, aside from perhaps enjoying the masterful craft of Japanese puzzle boxes. That said, your puzzle boxes are very well designed and your videos are put together great. I've subscribed to your channel to continue to follow your work and I am currently printing your Tardis Twist box.
@@3DPrinty Im using principle of spiral elevator for steel ball along linear rail + connected ring paths with traps on several layers... :) probably not original completely but I didnt copy anything in particular neither seen it on videos or own such design so I take it as my own design procedure...
Hey great video! I'm currently working on my own puzzle box. I'm curious if you could do a video about the designa dn 3d printing. Like specifically what you find works well for how thick a wall should be or how much infill or how many walls to print with. Also maybe how you decide to chop up a part for printing. Like really get into the nuts and bolts of it.
That's a great idea. I have a few videos about puzzle design, but nothing that really gets into the details of designing for print. I'll need to think up some project that would work with that focus, as I don't really have many pure tutorial videos.
I assume whatever it is must be in the center chamber - otherwise you would find the loose part when the puzzle is open. To access the center chamber, just unscrew the main bolt (bolt head is exposed in the top section) while using pliers to hold the nut in the bottom section still. The design doesn't include a metal ball... maybe something was pushed into the cork hole in the side?
@@3DPrinty yeah I’m not exactly sure what it is, it just assumed it’s a metal ball because it sounds like it’s rollin around, I’ve solved it before numerous times though
OMG this is fantastic
this channel is really underrated but I'm sure it is gonna be something one day
Thank you! The channel is still very new, but I'll keep at it.

I'm glad you like the videos - even when they aren't a subject you like much! Good luck with the print-in-place TARDIS puzzle :)
Very cool I'm testing my own prototype design now and right after first print I already came up with improvements :)
That's great! I'd love to hear how it turns out :)

This is soo cool I can’t wait to design my own you are an great inspiration
Glad you like it! Good luck with your puzzle designs :)

I watched this whole video about your inspirations for a barrel puzzle and I didn't hear Donkey Kong mentioned ONCE, which I find highly suspect!
Hmmm, it's almost like I saved that topic for... something.
Good job!!
Thanks so much!
Nice
had a quick question, my coopers box has a metal ball rolling around or something. Anyway to fix that?
