I always love watching you solve these puzzles. watching you get frustrated and even try things I wouldnt even have thought of in 30 million years. hope you keep up the good work!
@@Name-js5uq its not BREAKING THROUGH THE WALL the maze is basically a ceiling, and there are walls, except they are hidden under the ceiling. So, it is not possible to see the walls, which is why he is testing the walls to see if there is a wall or not -_-
These puzzles! I don’t do puzzles. Maybe a normal 1,000 or 2,000 regular jigsaw every once in a blue moon, but watching these things is cool. The engineering and craftsmanship is amazing. I actually quit puzzles because my cat would knock them on the floor. Spend hours and hours, then destroyed. That’s just what cats do, they are babies. Can’t be mad, pissed off for a minute, but it is what it is. Just need to keep them protected from them so they don’t destroy them LOL.
Well the 'inner workings' was just the piece of metal that he was turning. He was moving the side of the box to get the pin to move towards the center. And underneath, but not necessarily inside the box, there were walls blocking the pin which created the maze path
@@chefj523 that's pretty much a given, and what I would expect. It's just that part of the pleasure of watching these puzzle videos is actually seeing it. Thanks though, bud :)
I thought it was pretty obvious. You can't slide the top off because the circle is offset from the hole. When you get the pin in the middle, the metal circle is centered and comes right out the hole. No?
I have said it before and i will say it again .. you are a genius at puzzles .. its why you are my fave channel solving puzzles .. thanks for sharing these wonderful puzzles with us x
@chris Ramsey You can use an erasable market to erase sharpie. Just paint over the sharpie with the erasable one and then wipe. It will clean both. Perfect for the mark you accidentally put on it, and you won’t damage the finish of the puzzle.
I found your channel through Mike Boyd, I've stayed because of the puzzle videos (and the magic, and the video quality, and the humor and your overall personality and...). These things are awesome and so inspiring! Thanks for showing off the beautiful handmade stuff, I'm sure the makers of those puzzles appreciate it!
hey me too, can't remember why trough mike boyd but i know he mentiond him and now here was i... ordered already couple of puzzles myself just bcuz chris showed me how fun they are!
@@bartimaeusmandrake5547 They did a collaboration where I think Chris went on Mike's show and Mike learned how to do a card spring and on Chris's show Mike showed him how to stack dice in a cup. I'm trying to save up to get some of these puzzles, but I'm also working on designing some of my own, maybe I'll make some on my channel.
@@tabethahowell5859 Yeah, I think when people recommend using a non-gel toothpaste for something it's because the gel ones tend to be stickier and the white opaque ones tend to have baking soda. Just kinda conjecturing though
I love love love all these beautiful crafted puzzles you have been showing lately. I am definitely drawn to the metal ones due to being from a family of machinists(and most doing a lot of manual work). But oh my goodness I can’t wrap my mind around how someone comes up with these in the first place.
Just watched the perfect puzzle box video and ordered one for my 31st birthday in a few days lol. 10 months ago you had 1 mil subs and now 2.6 mil. Congrats man. Your content, editing, and especially personality is the best. Keep it up. I look forward to every video. Cheers 🍻 Edit: not sure if you had 1 mil at that time but that is when you unboxed the gold play button.
Agree w/ most everything you said re production & whatnot. Came for the magic connection, happened to be a puzzle fan as well. This is a great Channel!
I don't know about anyone else but I wouldn't mind watching you try the honeycomb one in a video. Even if its slightly different or difficult to make the video, I watch these more for your commentary along side the puzzles being cool. Like the Excalibur, its not that "fun" to watch someone struggle but its the journey and the eventual solution that justifies watching the whole thing. As long as its not a technical problem, I hope ya change your mind. Thanks for the videos and have a good day/night.
New content idea: do a "how it's made/works" for puzzles. I've always been super curious about how they made the puzzles do what it does. Dissect puzzles!
Bravo Chris! To remove permanent marker from wood, use a little rubbing alcohol and it should take it off just fine. Then I would probably use a little bit of oil to make sure that it doesn’t dry out at all. Fantastic video as always!
it's a good thing I have a dual monitor setup at work, so i can have your video open in the corner (with headphones on) so no one can see what I'm really doing. Love the channel.
i only just found this page a few days ago and watched a lot of your shows already and wow i never knew these puzzles existed and love watching you solve them with some brain farts lol so keep up the good work
Chris, what you should do is take a picture of the maze print it out and as you go through the maze cross off the dead ends so you can use logic to solve it!
Cool! It looks like it could use a little sand paper and oil on what ever groove system allows the horizontal movement but very cool mechanism. It was weird at first that you could go "through" the walls I'd the maze but it does add to the challenge
So I had a thought for you, while trying to solve these mazes with the hidden passages. You could possibly use a laser pointer at an angle to find the hidden passages easier because you would be able to see the light glowing out the other side of the holes as apposed to a regular light source that shines everywhere.
That is really cool. I love your puzzle content, especially since my lack of money prevents me from actually getting my hands on expensive ones. Also, sharpie is an alcohol based marker so you can use rubbing alcohol to wipe it off.
Great gob, I know this might sound weird but I’m going though smth right now and the puzzle videos help me fall asleep, idk the music in the background and the clicking and tapping calms me down pause u have a very deep voice Anyways love ur work
I love watching you solve puzzles!! so satisfying watch, not only for the puzzle solving 😉 Give me inspiration to do more puzzles although I’m more of a jigsaw puzzle girl. Still love this channel!!!
looking hard at it, the "passable" barriers are reliably way slimmer than others, there is a clear path on the maze.. but its kinda frustrating when we cant turn it :D was surprised you didnt turn the maze over to show any other passages
Big fan of puzzle Wednesdays. I kinda wish you would have flipped the maze part over so we could see the secret passages from below. Awesome videos Chris, keep em coming!
The "hidden" passages hide their main purpose. They hold the maze together. They are tabs used to keep the part whole while machining. It was a cool idea to make them hide paths though.
I really enjoyed this puzzle box. Would like to see how the honey comb one works since it’s not like a maze but still loved the video. I really look forward to puzzle Wednesday’s so keep it up Chris!
That maze needed two things: - A knob to rotate it by, to reduce wear and tear, and avoid the need for rotating awkwardly by finger. - ~A color or mark for the connections that are there only for integrity and can be passed under.~ Apparently a part of the puzzle :T
In my opinion I feel like Chris has the best outro song 👍 btw great puzzle video like always, always enjoy them 🙂 btw I wanted to see how the craftsmanship looked underneath the maze haha
There should be a little swivel handle you could put into 4 different holes on the outside edge of the metal to turn it easier, or a ballbearing holding the metal labyrint
Try a magic erase pad to get the sharpie off. Otherwise, write over the sharpie mark w/ sharpie & then wipe immediately (while it's still wet) - that usually takes off the dried sharpie ink along with the fresh wet ink.
Chris you should label the excalibur pieces like you did with that puzzle a few back. so you can know which pieces move together and which move against each other. might make it easier....just a thought.
The secret passage like that was the first thing on my mind when you showed that you can go through holes. I was surprised that it took you so long to figure out. But that was the first time I figured something out quicker than you did and I watched most of your puzzle videos I believe 😂
I totally called it... Kinda! Saying that you needed to take that part, I thought you needed to go down there. At one stage you put the pin that direction and then came back! Something about it yelled at me that it needed to be done 😂
I had to laugh so hard when you took the marker and placed the dot.. when just before you said 'limited edition and expensive' and ... BOOP! Places second dot! O my gawd, you had to see me crying tears of laughter and said "only a Ramsay will do this to his puzzle" 😂 One of a kind 👀😎 Just love it!
It is possible to remove sharpie with acetone or nail polish remover, it works fine on the metal, but it can remove the paint of the wood so you need to be careful
They have hardwood cleaner wipes at most home improvement stores. That will take that marker right off, without damaging or eating the wood finish. Just FYI. 😊
Loved this but it stressed me out a little 😂😂😂😂 its just not smooth turning and twisting because of the wood metal combo. Can i get a tombs up if u felt the same.
If you ever have a son/daughter you should put these puzzles in different locations around the world with hints inside each to the next one. The only way they can get your will and estate is to unlock the final one at the end. (Excalibur?)
I always love watching you solve these puzzles. watching you get frustrated and even try things I wouldnt even have thought of in 30 million years. hope you keep up the good work!
Check out Mr Puzzle.
Chris:
Everyone: so how's the Excalibur puzzle?
from the perspective of the people watching it looks like you're pushing that pin right through the metal barriers of the maze.
@@Name-js5uq That's what it's supposed to look like, and that's why he's trying to push through all the walls just to make sure that it isn't a fake
Broken
@@Blushfulcorn that's what I think too because the purpose of a maze try to figure it out...not try to break through the walls.
@@Name-js5uq its not BREAKING THROUGH THE WALL the maze is basically a ceiling, and there are walls, except they are hidden under the ceiling. So, it is not possible to see the walls, which is why he is testing the walls to see if there is a wall or not -_-

Would've been nice to see the inner workings of the puzzle, or even what the inside of the box looked like, rather than just the spot where he signed.
Same here. I was thinking "zoom out...zoom out.." Even if its just an empty box I wanted to see inside.
Well the 'inner workings' was just the piece of metal that he was turning. He was moving the side of the box to get the pin to move towards the center. And underneath, but not necessarily inside the box, there were walls blocking the pin which created the maze path

Started with the timer already running! And here was me waiting for you to forget..
just posted about that, asking why he skipped the first minute and a half. . .
@chris Ramsey You can use an erasable market to erase sharpie. Just paint over the sharpie with the erasable one and then wipe. It will clean both. Perfect for the mark you accidentally put on it, and you won’t damage the finish of the puzzle.
It's the rubbing alcohol in the dry erase marker that helps, he could use some types of hand sanitizer, or just a qtip with isopropyl alcohol on it
U should make a separate channel for just puzzles my man. That’s just the only reason why I watch this channel. I love the puzzles!!! Who agrees?

@@TheEveryMaker trust me, i'm buying the cheap puzzles :'D - not that i wouldn't like the expensive ones... Sure, do that! I'll check it out :)
CHRISS, use a q tip with some spirits or isopropal alcohol to take the sharpie stain off!!
Use a bit of non gel toothpaste and rub that spot with a damp cloth, much easier on the wood.
@@LiqnLag What does "non gel toothpaste" mean? I thought it was all pretty similar apart from the flavour.
@@QuasiELVIS some tooth paste has a blue or green or red gel inside I'm guessing that's what they are talking about
@@tabethahowell5859 Yeah, I think when people recommend using a non-gel toothpaste for something it's because the gel ones tend to be stickier and the white opaque ones tend to have baking soda. Just kinda conjecturing though
Test it on the finish in a less obvious place first! No sense placing the face of the puzzle in more danger.
Always look forward for Puzzle Wednesday. Two weeks in a row you remembered the timer, keep the streak going!
Just... what about Friday's video?

that's illegal,
@@Miko-kv1ug what part?
And you'll never see your bud again lmao
Level 9 puzzle from the 1800's of the chipawa tribe carved outa a solid piece of cherry. Ya.. u can also put ur weed in there!

Didn't show us the back side!
*Man WTH 🤷?*

SAME UGH!!! AND THE INSIDE OF THE BOX!!!!
Yeah I felt let down and unsatisfied because of it lmao no idea why
I was just about to say this too

Dude I really like your videos, I'm from Mexico and I practice my listening with you
All you need to do is use 4 colors of marker on the honeycomb to represent north south east and west so we can watch the rotations.
I cannot get enough of your puzzle videos
Its my birthday today! LOVE THE VIDS KEEP IT UP. PLZ DONT LEAVE ME HANGING WITH SOME OF THE PUZZLE.
Happy birthday! 🍾🎂🎉🎁🎈

If you ever want to get rid of the permanent marker dot, use a que tip and some rubbing alcohol. ;)
Whoaaaa no rubbing alcohol on that wood!
You can also use some spirit alcohol
@@IulianOnofrei magic eraser
Dry erase gets off permanent marker. Ask any teacher
Chris, what you should do is take a picture of the maze print it out and as you go through the maze cross off the dead ends so you can use logic to solve it!
I’ve gotten hopelessly addicted to puzzle Wednesday. Your punctuality has me hooked.
Great job showing the solving of that tiny maze on video!
Cool! It looks like it could use a little sand paper and oil on what ever groove system allows the horizontal movement but very cool mechanism. It was weird at first that you could go "through" the walls I'd the maze but it does add to the challenge

Really enjoyed the close up shot, it felt like I was doing the puzzle with you.
Why are your videos so calming to watch???

Hey should put dials on there like etch-a-sketch to help,rotate the sender puzzle and help move the from plate more easily.
The secret passage is the reason this is a lvl 9. Well done!

is it bad that watching this puzzle was so calming that it made me fall asleep
This looks like a very fun puzzle look and try to solve. Anytime there’s a puzzle box involved, prepare for a long excruciating period of work
cool design!
Yo man just wanted to say I love your videos, been suscribed for quiet a while and always watch your puzzle videos, pura vida from Costa Rica 🇨🇷!!!
So interesting to watch, thanks for another great puzzle :)
I love these types of puzzles. So fun but challenging

You just made it Wabi-sabi. It's yours now. No one else's looks like that, but I bet people will copy it now !

Agreed
Yes I also agree
He already has it... I didn't expect this from him.

wow, what a beautiful little piece of art. The honeycomb one must be a headache to solve. Thanks for the vid , have a great day!
You is most patient person I have seen. If I in place of you I will definitely broke it.
Thnx it was thrilling.. You are amazing for having the patience to keep trying to solve it again and again until you do it 💐 so really thnx
That's dope! Have you looked into solving "Calibron 12" ?
My bank account isn't ready for me to start doing these puzzles...
Nail polish remover/acetone will likley remove the texta/marker lines. Nice find.
Really love your vids dude
Love your videos can you show us a update on your puzzle collection..
Playing some sudoku while watching you solve some puzzles, what a fantastic combination..
Puzzle videos are so nice to watch, specially yours!
Love these puzzles! There so beautiful looking. The way you have to solve them seems so cool also.
Probably one of the best puzzle you’ve done.
This video was sooo satisfying oml
From the perspective of the pin, at each turning point/junction: right, up, right, down, right, up, left, down, left, up, right, up, left, up, right, down, right, up, right, down, right.
I actually paused at the beginning, took the time to sketch, then solved backwards.
Common man. Do the honeycomb too. This camera angle will do the trick to make it enjoyable as a viewer
They have hardwood cleaner wipes at most home improvement stores. That will take that marker right off, without damaging or eating the wood finish. Just FYI. 😊
Super cool video!! Just like always!!
Love watching you!!
You remember the 52 because that's the number of cards in a deck without Jokers and blanks
You can use a little acetone on a Q-tip to get the sharpie off
That for sure was a tricky puzzle. Love it!
Hidden passages in a top down perspective? Yeah I played A Link to the Past.
I usually click a link to the past and I don't need a triforce to do it.
When are you trying to solve that sword puzzle again? :)
I think he’s working on it🤔🤷♂️
I hope hope hope you'll do the honeycomb one anyway, even if you think it will be boring for us. I promise we want it!
Loved this but it stressed me out a little 😂😂😂😂 its just not smooth turning and twisting because of the wood metal combo. Can i get a tombs up if u felt the same.
