The best part was actually your wife having an absolute BLAST solving this puzzle! She enjoyed it so much, it made me very happy and surely it had made you very happy as well! Fantastic work, Brandon!
It becomes clear which bits go where and how the puzzle works for me sometime before the actual solving (around the cutting into the bars of the prison). But I was only really sure I understood the concept once it was being solved still which until reading @InheritanceMachining's comment I though the editing and order of operations was deliberately done to hint without really revealing the trick in play, with lots more focus on explaining the cunning machining for that spring - and rightly so really.

Youre out here doing a service to humanity, manual machining is slowly turning into what modern day blacksmithing is, you inspire me as a 19 year old to make it one of my life goals to have a machine shop
I agree with everyone, your wife's reaction while doing the puzzle was great. Side note - that spring detent was really nice work. I added a new machining tool to my mental kit with that build.
He probably went through 3 years too And work experience of like 10-20 years on top Hes up there at the mountain Go take a hike Maybe you'll catch him one day 😊
Not everything in engineering is about design. There are so many facets to engineering. Through time / work, you find what you like best and grow in all of the ones that you focus on. Plus, what isn't shown is the 3 weeks of full time work it took to do all of this and the continued mistakes along the way.
At the part when she says "you do such nice work" im like aww thats the highlight of the video. but then it gets even more wholesome. well done both of yous
found this channel just a few weeks ago, went back and watched over half of the past videos. couldnt be more excited for a new upload. easily the best channel i found this year
Nice design. I love the fact that Ms. Inheritance Machining never shows her face. Reminds me of old school Tom & Jerry cartoons where the humans were never shown above the hips.
My grandfather was a tool maker machinist. Among other things I inherited from him was a puzzle, a log in a cage. Yours makes me smile thinking of his.
I'm a game designer as my day job. Your wife's reactions to solving each step of the puzzle, the time between each new discovery and step forward, the total time to solve, and how obviously clear the goal was... You hit the gold standard for ALL of the critical points of game progression. She seemed to be in a state of flow from start to finish. This is _an unbelievably difficult_ thing to do well. There are entire books and phd theses written on this. This cannot possibly be your first puzzle design! I know I've watched all your previous videos, but I'm honestly in complete disbelief of how masterful the design of that puzzle was. (And I've watched a LOT of puzzle solving videos)
Machining a thin part using a plug? I'm stealing that. We just got my late Grandfather's 40 year old lathe out of his basement, and I'm hoping to get some use out of it soon. I'm in a similar boat to Brandon a few years ago.
My newphew asked me if he could have some V-blocks for christmas because he needed them for a videogame called Fortnights. I am still unable to understand...
6:27 WHAT HAPPENED TO THE Heat Treat Oven???!!!?!?! OH wait. So just chanced it to evenly heat with the torch for initial harden then use the over for temper?
it would take a long time to preheat the oven for such a small piece, heating it with the torch takes just a couple minutes, the oven is useful for pieces with a lot more thermal mass that need a controlled temperature and even heat
It shows on camera that not only is she your wife but also your best friend that is so cool that you found someone like that. Not to mention your finished parts are very clean and shiny, impressive.
Im kinda disappointed you didn't make the ball. Despite that great build and excellent video. I stumbled across your second ever video a way back when you only had 4 or so released and thought to myself wow this guy is good, if he keeps this up his channel is going to get massive. Its been such a pleasure to see all the projects and progression this channel has been through so thanks for offering us the opportunity to come along the journey with each video.
Is anyone else getting insanely excited at how intricate that first piece was?! That was amazing!!! Can't wait to see what mind blowing things you come up with. May end up needing to get a jewlers or watch makers lathe to support some of the smaller complex parts? Great video! 10/10
So happy to see the diarama of Engineer Raised in Kingstons hiding in the background at 16:22. I have only just discovered his channel and it was the first thing I saw him make.
Same here, I only just saw that video (the first time I’ve ever seen his channel) last night! He has a pretty interesting sense of humor. I instantly subscribed!
Dude, awesome video! I actively cheered when you were making the spring detent ring. What a crazy thin and hard part to make and it barely needed a side project!
I can just about stuff things into my lathe and do aggravating things to them without breaking all of the tooling. Apart from not being able to design anything this complicated, there simply wouldn't be enough time before the universe freezes over to actually make anything like this. Impressed!
This is exactly what I want to see! The algorithm shouldn't have taken this long to figure it out. All of my subscriptions are to puzzle solvers and machine shops. At least I'm here now
Yeah, I see that but your channel should instantly find its way to anybody who has the slightest interest in machining. Instead they load us up with kittens and parkour. Not that I mind the kittens lol.
While watching the starting steps, I guessed the pins would be like a key .. turn, lift, turn, etc .. and those stepped recesses you milled look like thats whats happening, but I have no clue how! Beautiful puzzle! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
I love how excited your wife gets when she figures something out and then solves it. I jumped several times while watching and anticipating her screams of discovery lol. Well done!
Especially the infectious joy at the end makes me want to build my own (disregarding that I have neither materials, nor knowledge, nor experience, nor the equipment xD)
Love seeing the curls from a sharp drill bit. Haa, Disappear..Almost disappear. Loved it. Ya know, I see you pointing to some problems but honestly, I don't see them. Thanks for those little details. I really love seeing the chips fly and ideas at work. Outside the box. A lot of things to comment on. OK, Time for the reveal. Holy Cow man. Great job on that. Thank you.
Amazing puzzle, and love your wife’s reaction. Your videos make me feel good, happy and inspired to be creative. Your relationship to your partner is also sweet to witness
These are the kinds of projects I wish I got to do in college. Although I studied Electro-Mechanical Engineering, everything was simulated on a computer.
I have a Jailbreak puzzle from the 60's that has the same overall form factor (although smaller) but this one you made is WAY more involved/challenging/cooler.
Just designed and 3d printed my second puzzle box - 3d printing has allowed for some helpful quick iteration to work out the mechanism engineering to make sure the solve works the way you intend it to - maybe I will send my next design to you to make 🙂

It was a hell of a lot more enjoyable than I was expecting 🤣

"this is a custom made ball jail. it can be opened with a custom made ball jail."
Omg nooooo
Absolutely do not the ball jail, this thing is beautiful and doesn't need that kind of treatment.
I come here for the machining, but the love and support between you and your wife always warms my heart.
This is brilliant! I love it
Nice design. I love the fact that Ms. Inheritance Machining never shows her face. Reminds me of old school Tom & Jerry cartoons where the humans were never shown above the hips.
Listening to Paige's excitement at solving it was great!
Gotta love puzzles. Especially nice looking puzzles
Super cool !!! I love that you designed it and made it all completely yourself . And your wife enjoying it was the best part !

Something I've seen done, but never actually done myself, is gluing or taping an extremely thin part to a thicker backplate for machining.
That was so COOL. I love hearing your wife as she found each part to open your puzzle. FANTASTIC work.
My newphew asked me if he could have some V-blocks for christmas because he needed them for a videogame called Fortnights. I am still unable to understand...
Well
If it starts a passion
Gifting the right kind of tools is the best
Hope he got his machining Vs😂😂😂
V blocks > V bucks
V-Bucks, as you probably know by now.
Is the joke yes
I think it's great how your wife recognize that you do some cool work. You seem like a great couple. All the best for the New Year
It's puzzling why that parting line didn't disappear! I love everything about this video.

As always. All hail the algorithm
My face hurt from smiling at here haha Thanks!
Outstanding. Now, time for a bench-top centerless grinding machine...
i could get on board with that
The last time I was this early, he was still inheriting the machines.

Amazing video as per usual. But I have an even more challenging project. Make something unique using only materials from your box of "scraps".
i might just have to "scrap" a punch of parts before i do that 😜

It's all in that detent ring 😁
Day 25th of gentle reminding that you need to temper your flycutter parts

Something about editing a tablet screen onto a cutting board to fake having a tablet at 2:21 took me out once I realized what was happening
