[@bsjeffrey]

don't think it was a bottle, probably a 'weight' for the scale.

[@ChrisRamsay52]

ah, you're probably right!

[@bigmaddrongo]

yeah, exactly this, it's a representation of the old-fashioned brass weights that used to be used.

[@TheSpikeStoryMobile]

Actually back in the day they weighed things in bottles, I weigh approximately 248 half full bottles

[@bigmandennis9121]

I was going to say the same. It's a way to measure the weight of something. One side the weights have like gram markings on and on the other side would be the item ur weighing.

Thank you Chris for always bringing humility , humor and magic to the interwebs . BTW I'm about to make 8 months clean and sober , I say that because watching you solve puzzles got me into trying it which has helped me cope with some tough times and also enjoy the feeling of accomplishment. Thank you💯💥

With Angry Lion there is a lip on the inside of the inner box that the "nose/mouth piece locks into. Reason you need to move it up while pressing on the brow section. Very cool and clever design!

Your intros are so incredible. People do not understand the amount of work you put into those. As a videographer, I appreciate it

[@RatonLavee]

In French, we have the expression "lion's wrinkle" for the wrinkle that appears in the middle of the forehead when you frown. It goes well with the angry lion puzzle 🦁

[@bfg1637]

Im making a magic the gathering deck case right now that's modular from 3d printed parts. Getting the 5 compartments to lock together is proving hard. Ive been watching your puzzle vids for a long while now and am currently rewatching your wood puzzles to find inspiration to solve my problem. those makers are next level and like you said have mastered the simplicity of connections, which is exactly what I'm trying to find. thanks for your content.

[@joesladovich9257]

Hi Chris. The sliding panel puzzle. I think it’s interned to be a little table. So fold the two panels out, then turn it over and lift the cover off the compartment Leaving the contents displayed?…. Just a thought. Keep it up, love the videos. Joe

[@matthewramos2777]

Chris, you need to figure out how to plan a trip to the place they make these things in Japan. I’m fascinated by the wood, is there just a giant communal pile they grab from?Miyazaki-esque puzzle drawings on the walls? Do they collaborate? Is it a puzzle office space? Do they have dope little saws and tools and little magnifying ocular Ben Franklin glasses things? Get to Japan, do a vlog. 😂 you’re awesome, keep up the cool stuff brotha.

[@angdej1234]

Yeap still on a Chris Ramsay binge lol. Both channels have me hypnotized and I am just enjoying it. Also, in love with magic videos. Can not do it to save my life, but I love watching it and the behind the scenes of it. Thank you for just existing lol

Beautiful craftsmanship as always! I enjoy all puzzles that could potentially be useful. Like these(and most other Karakuri puzzles) you can hide your things inside them if you wanted to. It gives puzzles more of a point rather than solving them just to solve them. However, I love all puzzles either way

[@gottloserdjango9406]

Isn't the Lions nose on the inside holding onto a notch in the box? It pushes up when you put it back in, doesn't look like it detaches the magnet.

[@Fynelol]

Correct, there’s a notch on the inside bottom and if you raise it too high it gets caught on his brow. The magnet just helps hold it in place so you have to push the brow to open it otherwise it would just fall out. You just have to raise the nose up past the bottom row of teeth like the lion is snarling :)

[@gruntopolouski5919]

Grats on the bicycle collaboration! Huge!!!

[@ukshreya]

What a dream! You earned a collab with Bicycle! Congrats!!

Congrats on the Bicycle collab!

[@Sylencer1982]

I'm wondering if the "red herrings" on the scale one was what you'd use to access the mechanism for assembly or maintenance...

[@EnjoyPA]

I was thinking it was a way to engage a mechanism to open the less obvious panel on the opposite side, possibly by tipping the scale the other way.

Dear mr. Ramsay, I would be really happy if you could share some information about the velvety mat/cushion thingy that you are solving puzzles on, in the video description

[@taylorg121]

That’s strange. I also have the balance puzzle but there’s no sliding panels on the side. Wonder if they changed the design or maybe I bought an imitation? I did buy it off eBay so who knows.

[@Klamageddon]

Those sliding panels that you slide sideways then down are very typical of traditional puzzle boxes from Hakone. (I was getting a bit frustrated watching that he 'didnt' try pushing them down as well at first, because it's just such a common technique!) I think if it was included, it could either have been that it was a little red herring / joke (because, it's so common that you'd think, ahh, this again, but then it's unrelated) OR, possibly Chris's was from an early prototype, that had been built from an existing box? Not sure. Very strange!

[@gruntopolouski5919]

“Slide down Slide up Flip it around There we go” Sounds like song lyrics!

[@terryqueen3233]

I believe the scale is my favorite but my second favorite is the second one you did but on the scale you called that little button to the left a bottle I believe that would represent a weight that you put on one side if the scale really work. I have seen real scales that do this except for the drawer in the front and they have a small set of different sized weights that looks similar to what's on that scale puzzle. Very interesting. I see these as putting your stash in actually. Thanks for the video. Stay vigilant! PS actually sense I subscribe to this channel this is the first long video that I've seen besides the shorts

[@granth4561]
