I love these puzzles where it's more about understanding a single mechanism over a thousand steps.

[EricPetersen]

You know it’s serious when Mr. Puzzle gets his graph paper and pen out. 🧐😱

[Mitchcraft.]

I like when you can draw a description of how the puzzle works. More interesting that way =D

7:38 this is the noise of a proud man who accomplished something

Mathematicians have their order of operations. Mr Puzzle has his own order of puzzling. 1. The Panel Push 2. Shake 3. Smack 4. Spin

[anarchyelite]

There is something satisfying about Mr. Puzzle struggling at a puzzle every now and then. 😂. Makes him seem more human. Lol. Sometimes when he solves the lvl 10 ones in like 10 minutes it blows my mind. 🤯

As Chris Ramsay famously said, "If in doubt, spin it."

I love puzzles that have simple mechanisms to create unexpected, elegant solutions.

[TS_Mind_Swept]

The difficulty requires experience with other similar type puzzles like "the impossible dovetail" or ones like that, without that understanding there's no possibility

[ignazioc]

Your videos are becoming great. I didn’t watch you channel for a while and I see the difference

Mal wieder ein sehr schönes Puzzle mit einem vertrackten, versteckten Mechanismus. Und die Lösung ist auch mal wieder sehr schön erklärt. Mittlerweile muss man den Begriff bzw. die Definition "Puzzle" immer weiter ziehen.

[aaronwalderslade]

It would be nice if the bolt would come off and bring with it the wooden plate from one side, revealing a perspex plate so you can see the mechanism.

[fuzzylilpeach]

I love the filming changes! And that was a really cool puzzle.

[michaelsimon]

I appreciate your explanation. I actually understand how this puzzle works🤗

[reggiep]

There is a fair amount of 'puzzle' within this puzzle but people aware of the various and most common mechanisms or solutions in small enclosed puzzles will try or attempt them in an orderly or systematic fashion. Sadly, for people who are offering negative feedback and using 'I know people agree with me too' fallacy, are just being salty about it.

This puzzle is a great puzzle, pretty hardcore and a lot of time and effort to make it hardcore has went into it!

[lesternielson]

It would be even better if the box somehow opened, after removing the bolt, revealing the clever mechanism

[BLUEYOCEANOUTUBE]

My point of view:
Need a little more hint

[rolfoetinger]

very nice, hard, heavy puzzle. I like these videos. I would like to see more of Mr. Puzzle than just the hands !?

[deavman]

Centrifugal force moves at least two pins simultaneously to the sides allowing the central pin to drop when box is turned upside down releasing the bolt.

Anybody else get stressed out looking at that thing? I can imagine myself hurling it at the wall with maximum effort screaming cuss words I just made up. They'd find me covered in blood and saw dust muttering "all you need is a band saw, you see? That's the answer!"
