Today I'm going to attempt to solve this sequential discovery puzzle box called "Bandit". It's a broken slot machine that i have to "Fix" in order to solve it! This puzzle was made by MW Puzzles. Enjoy!

"This piece of glass here, it used to have a sticker saying 'do not press', and I pressed it, and the glass fell off." lol

[@travislapham3479]

Yeah and if the glass says do not press don't press on the glass

2:10 "Before we start, let's take our time here." Little did he know how true this statement would become.

[@alissamckeighan6287]

Hah, your right, lol! I love his puzzles

[@sirsparksalot2]

For the first 15 minutes i was screaming at the screen "undo the black knob off the arm!". What a relief when you finally did 😂

[@papikilljoy1215]

Same

[@triton6127]

It made me feel so smart that I caught that before he did!

[@golbez3794]

spoiler alert!

[@captnsking9079]

As soon as he said he needed more leverage I was like oh hey I bet that black knob unscrews and would fit. Drove me insane when he was turning them at the same time and didn’t make the connection

[@jbcoker]

Yup. Me too.

[@Doktor_Vem]

3:01 > "It used to have a sticker that said 'Do Not Press' and I pressed it" Oh, Chris... You're such a rebel

[@robingunnarsson6412]

This kind of puzzle is what got me hooked to your channel. All the super expensive puzzles are cool too, but I like this chill solving very much. It's calming and engaging at the same time.

[@TheOn3Parker]

I recently rediscovered this channel after 4-5 years of not watching it and this is the first video I’ve watched since I came back and I’m just so glad to hear this guys soothing voice again.

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

36:00 minutes into the video (2 days into the puzzle) I love hearing you working out - not only to us, but to yourself - the process of thought that goes into deconstructing what the creator was thinking. I love it!

[@twistedtailie580]

I really admire your passion for these and being able to verbally walk us through your thought processes

[@mikekeirsbilck3199]

Aaah! Some vintage puzzling! Looooved it. Feel free to do more of these. I’m so on board!

[@morganevans2297]

YESSS!!!! I really wish there was an unlimited supply of sequential discovery puzzles because I could watch you solve them every single day.

[@8notorious8]

I got addicted to this channel because of sequential puzzles years ago… but then i fell in love with his magic…. and suddenly area 52… This guy is a huge creative talent… Much love and support from Germany! Thank you so much for your time Chris!! ❤

[@andrewortega66]

I just wish I could afford one

[@morganevans2297]

@@andrewortega66 I know, right?!?! I have a whole shelving setup of the puzzles I've solved but the most expensive one was like $80 because the super awesome seq disc ones are like hundreds or thousands of $$$...which I totally get because of all the work and thought that goes into making them.

[@RichardJr1134]

I love watching you describe, work on & complete these types of puzzles. The diagrams & to your excitement working on and completing it add to the fun. It was such a perfect break time of my day!! Thank you, Chris!! ❤😁

[@albertpeugh9367]

This explains why burglars just carry hammers. LMAO

[@gamerparadise6704]

as soon as chris starts drawing, you know it’s getting serious

[@ChrisRamsay52]

haha

[@stephentoscano9331]

Some people follow Chris for his magic and cardistry. Most follow for the puzzle solving. True intellectuals follow for his artwork.

[@TheBlakus420]

Indeed. The nature of his hand drawn artwork is quite the perplexing spectacle 🧐🍷

[@jackbreeazy6710]

Hey, respect to the people that put his videos together. They do their thang. Especially on the openings...

[@lisacarl8561]

I like having these videos playing in the background at work. The way you talk through the stuff breaks up the quiet without needing me to watch what you are doing

[@maruto2020]

Good 😊

[@katiestalnaker4616]

Am i the only one that appreciates that if we cant see something he draws it, such a sweetheart!!!!

[@Hissyfitfilms]

Watching Chris solve puzzles is like therapy for me, so relaxing...the whiskey helps too

[@christinley5213]

This was a fun puzzle!!! Difficult for sure!!! Thats why your the puzzle master! Music on point as usual… thank you!:)

[@marksperanza2380]

I was screaming unscrew the slot handle and you finally did it. Thank you for that

[@da443-galmond4]

Loved your diagrams. They made sense. After day one began to think that the wood may have warped over time and was making it a bit harder than originally intended.

[@jmg999]

Spoilers ahead: This puzzle seemed like a big mess, as if nothing was working properly. So much of this was so difficult for you to manage, and even when you were able to pull the lever, and release the gold coins, it didn't show a jackpot reading on the panel, which I thought it should've.

[@Notslimbutshady_]

Lots of the solve was botched or forced. I’ve seen another solve video of this and you do have to line up the logos if you’ve done it properly and not forced things 🤷🏻

[@Craigslist444]

It helps when you follow the instructions and don't blame temperature after owning the puzzle for days.

[@Mr_Transistor]

Here to represent the people yelling "take the ball and put it on the thing!"

[@imjody]

35:55 - Something fits perfectly where it seemingly isn't doing f*ck all. "So bizarre!" 😆😂Frustration kicking in. I'm literally crying I'm laughing so much, hahaha...

[@RichardJr1134]

We need another puzzle from this creator. What a great puzzle!! 🔥🔥🔥 Side note: I honestly don't remember seeing you lift that silver top piece in the first half of the video from day 1 & 2.... hmmm. I'm gonna have to rewatch that a second time.....🤣🤣🤣things that make you go hmmm. But i also watched it over 3 days.

[@GaryCunninghamyouareenough]

Wow - what a cool puzzle 🤯 I admire your determination, Chris 🤘 Great video - great solve 🤘. Also, I have the escape game and can confirm the deck is awesome (the ace of spades is really cool)

[@isabellam1936]

Can you interview Yuu Asaka. There no videos of him on KZbin. It would be fascinating to hear and see how he comes up with them and the way his mind works. Have you ever thought about interviewing puzzle creators?

[@markpley6622]

Ive seen every puzzle viseo you have chris and this one is one of the coolest. I recently got the davy jones puzzle you did awhile back and that was a doozy. I hope to see more of those wooden puzzles in the future

[@TylerK121]

15:20 As a mechanic, I fricken love this thing already…. If it was easier to get one I’d stop the video here so I could figure it out on my own! Haha. Keep doin what ya do man! 👌👍

[@jccatv901]

Been watching for almost a decade.. still loving the vids!

[@Rawrawslots]

I used to just put his videos on because his voice would put me to sleep..God I'm such a a weirdo 😂

[@Rawrawslots]

Telling an Aries not to press the glass...😂 I feel ya man

[@kimfahlberg4052]

Hey Chris. You really need to open a museum for your puzzle collection. Id come, im from Sweden!

[@mykgrauss9872]

Great puzzle Chris. Love you solving it. Thanks for the journey.

[@zeBamBam]

The real Chris is back!! It’s so nice to see it! ❤ For a second I thought I was watching one of your OG videos

[@IMYOURWILL]

45:06 and imagine that. Antwan found something wrong the puzzle. The humidity wouldn't play apart in your air conditioned studio. You emailed the Creator to find out what you was doing wrong. You already broke it when you touched the window that says don't touch. You do this every video i mean come on man

[@Notslimbutshady_]

Yep and he said he shaved the wood in an earlier reply? How would he shave the wood without taking the whole thing apart? I’m not sure 🤔 - I’ve seen another solve video of this puzzle and it flows perfectly. At least 2 or 3 steps on this solve were bodged/forced when they didn’t need to be.

[@batman3698]

Excellent puzzle, a joy to watch. Reminds me of the vending machine puzzle.

[@edwardc4453]

while i'm sure it was cool, half the time we just looked at a tinted clear pane basically.

[@mrwalter7205]

This is my first time ever shouting at the screen like you always used to say. I was shouting about the handle probably being the tool you needed for that brass screwdriver piece lol

[@supermcfly85]

This might be my new favorite puzzle! So cool!

[@supermcfly85]

I was thinking it would be cool if you edited in a cartoon computer drawing\animation that shows what you're drawing or what you're trying to describe. Thought you'd like the idea. And in the editing process you could make it look better than the in-the-moment scribbles.. just brain storming.

[@Natalia-jb7vv]

Sticker: Do not press Chris: This sign can't stop me; I can't read!

[@ashleyconrad7554]

Yes we all want to see you solve his other puzzle! Another great video

[@AnthonyRBlacker]

It's great to see how far you've come Chris in this art of life. I remember the very 1st set of cards you sold. I was broke as a joke back then, I wanted a pack of those cards SO bad, I know they'll be worth something to (not only me) but a LOT of people one day, if not already. Man I sure wish I had a chance to get your first 1st decks. It's ok, I know what it felt like back then, it was such a glorious time for you.. I'm so glad man.. you've worked super hard and totally deserve everything positive in life. Best to you Chris, I love your content man!!

[@brightslumber]

Avid watcher of your videos. I this one one pop up, and I immediately stopped it, order the puzzle and it arrived at 11am today. I have JUST completed it and re built it. Feeling very chuffed that I was able to complete this, I obviously learned from the master - thank you Chris!

[@stoningrolled8032]

Universal rule of life - tell human not to do thing, human do thing.

Also hour long videos this is definitely a favourite already 😍🙌

What a challenge! Enjoyed this video, music, frustration, and solve!!! Fantastic video!!!!!! Thank you!

[@bridgettevazquez6519]

Really love this puzzle and video. Thank you

[@adammarsden-rhodes703]

Love watching you solve puzzles, very entertaining

[@stopdropanddrumroll]

Absolutely love this puzzle. Thanks Chris

[@wildanimals5923]

( not sure if spoilers since i havent fully watched the video yet but, most likely not spoilers ) The glass being the last moving part of the puzzle as all the other parts moved really just pushed a mini scale in position to catch the glass and add weight to open the trap door 😅 Side note - im not sure why but im not getting notifications about you're videos. Not sure if it's KZbin side, my side or your side... Either way, I always check back after a few days just to see what's new.

[@85Silvana85]

32:55 You aligned the logos but I thought you first had to acquire a silver coin and / or an ID pass (?) Maybe you went a few steps ahead too soon 🤭 Love watching your videos, been doing so for years now and never gets boring. Thanx a million 💜🍀

[@muffinzpunch]

I miss these puzzles. If you have more I would lobe to see them!!

[@ilikepie1123]

(Breaks puzzle before filming) “This puzzle must be broken!”

[@ricktube221]

Let me get this straight. The wood got warped and made it difficult to move a piece and since Chris didn't want to force anything he needed to get help to understand how to proceed? What the? That's terrible!! I'd be totally annoyed if I paid hundreds for a puzzle with a defect like that. Reaction from Chris: "Oh well. It's nobody's fault!?" Everyone in the comments: "Cool puzzle!"

[@madmcrae]

Love your pen Chris!

[@Reaper_94]

I honest to God thought the title to this video said I took a pill in Ibiza 😂😂😂

[@masonurycki5456]

Do you have any idea how long I was yelling “take the ball off of the lever and use that for the screw!” 😂😂😂 these are the times I wish I could call KZbinrs n be like hey watching your video just do this or that. 😂😂😂

[@_bane01]

the craft of this puzzle is incredible. so beautiful! can't wait to finish this episode!

[@fikanera838]

Amazing solve! The engineering behind it is so complex!

[@HitoHitoNoMiChromosome]

11:00 I'll take your word for it 💀

[@TheGeocidalOne]

So excited to watch this!

[@Zacht1980]

This puzzle has a lot of shaft turning.

[@ChrisTheSparky]

22:26 Finally! Been saying twist the black knob since he messed with the light on top

[@jonblair5470]

If you write down the spacing between the 7s and the logo, then calculate where to spin it so all the logos line up?

[@markwojo727]

Cool looking puzzle

[@deetorbett2363]

The deductive mind is fascinating to me. I love listening to you working it out. I'm a HUGE fan!

[@Datrebor]

I was another one that was saying the tool had to be part of the handle. Then you found it. After that you found a second tool in the handle. That was really cool how they made the handle with two tools. Great puzzle and fun to watch you solve it. I am wondering if you fixed it when you got the 3 coins out?

[@rondickson1491]

Another great puzzle solve. Love your videos. Keep em coming

[@canadianstoners4734]

Currently going through a break up of 5 years and all I’ve done nonstop is watch your vids.. these videos really help keep my mind off things.

[@kylenelson2777]

Great video. Amazing puzzle! Amazing solve process. Thank you Chris!

[@SaturnWithTheStars]

so nice to see you going again, so proud of you

[@tonymeehan866]

love your videos , been off work with my back for the last week and i have watched nothing else , except the iron claw ( great movie by the way )

[@joshuana514]

Looks like he forgot to scramble the reel again when he reset at the end, so the next person that plays it will already have the jackpot aligned.

[@KCML82]

Very nice ;puzzle. I liked how you showed the reset aswell.

[@robiniseli1857]

Love all your puzzles!!!

[@spaceDJ_11]

Loved it.... *paper tear.... Paper tear...... Paper tear......*

Awesome puzzle! I really enjoyed watching this solve! 😊

[@arcticfire232]

Haven't watched your vids in couple months. I paused the video right at the start to comment on it. Ill let you know if i like the video in an hour. Simple yet complicated. Another banger video. love your content bro.

[@HexnHammer]

You crank that shaft, puzzle boy!

[@MichaelDuncan-jw6zd]

I would love to see someone make a puzzle using @Chris Ramsay’s tattoos as hints and guides 😂

More of these please!!

[@mattbay9246]

$12 each x 52 cards $624 for a deck of cards! 😂 Are the jokers free? 😂 love watching your channel!

[@NelielSugiura]

Now the real question... how many times did you say "shaft" in this vid? Giggity. ;p

[@jsharik2466]

19:08 all of sudden captions appear! Magic! How did you do that? lol

[@MichaelDuncan-jw6zd]

Also @Chris where could I find cool puzzles like this?

[@Y.A.A.E.G._Games]

Take a drink everytime he says shaft lmao

[@MrKadzima]

I keep seeing Cartman behind the tinted glass. 😂

[@Emjaystalkroom]

Calming voice ❤ I love every bit of your voice and it keeps me watching ❤

[@JD_Mortal]

He should have made that longer screw from the handle go into the light, poking through the metal plate that lifted-up... So screwing the light back in, it would protrude and unlock the "slide" ability of the light or some other new step. (Unless that wasn't actually intended to come out of the handle.) He could have also made the handle press into the bushing, so it pushes a bearing in the bushing. That could have added another step. I think the logo was there, intentionally, to make you think, "I gotta remove this handle, so it doesn't keep hitting the logo." Though he should have purposely made the logo protrude more, so it impeded the lever from spinning around completely, for a more obvious "I must remove this". That's the biggest flaw in most wooden "slide" puzzle-boxes. Humidity expansion and contraction. Too much humidity and it locks things in place, too little humidity and it exposes all the "loose" things. That's why they invented plastic and wood-oils and wood-waxes and leaf-springs, to help keep things tight, but still be movable. V2 Will be better, I am sure. This one looked fun, to watch it make you go mad!

[@pabloestafez6830]

🤔This puzzle is a metaphor for my life....day after day of constant shafting, being manipulated, pushed poked and prodded around....always going one step forward and two steps back, always feeling like your left with more questions, always hoping for that jackpot🙆🤦😜

[@bearlaw6807]

Wow this one is absolute genius design... What a cool puzzle.

[@n8nate]

It's such a shame that builders sometimes think of aesthetics instead of functionality. The wood was a problem that made them extra money and made the puzzle more beautiful.... But wasn't needed. It nearly broke it. I really, really enjoyed watching you figure it out though.
