Music Box - Vintage Style 3D Puzzle

[@Il0vescarecrow]

Epic, I may buy one now as a christmas project

[@sandyathomas1]

This will be my one and only RoboTime project! NEVER AGAIN!!

[@wooverwoods]

Thank you for this. Your video was more helpful than the instructions that came with it. Mine won't play correctly after some misaligned gears and a few pieces of wood broke but all in all its a pretty piece for the bookshelf.

[@victor-bi8gy]

you are just dumb👊😒🙄

[@hecate5861]

Thank you so much, I got stuck and this really helped

[@Savannah98709]

How did you get the gears to actually line up and work? Mine won’t rotate when all the panels around it are in place

[@ianwiskle812]

Did you got it to work?

[@wooverwoods]

I have the same issue. At least it looks pretty and I refuse to take it apart to fix it lol

[@thequietbuilder714]

usually it's a snug fit, wax helps a lot

[@sirapatkotipapa1404]

Too much fiction, mine got stuck too

[@MossyMozart]

@@sirapatkotipapa1404 - Wax wherever things touch. Make sure you haven't pressed things together too tightly.

Your video was very well done except for, I believe, one omission. At 12:15 you should have installed E7 pins into the six C1 slots which protrude through A8. See the first drawing in step 8 of the instructions (E7 x 6). This locks the bottom assembly to the top. Without this step one could not keep the box assembled if it is lifted from the top of the box. I don't know how yours worked without this step unless you went back to correct it off camera. Nevertheless, very nice presentation and photography. Thank you for posting this.

[@notveggie.]

when u press down the center to close it, how do u make it stay closed? I kept pressing down and twisted it like the instructions told me to but it keeps springing back up.

[@marilynmoore2566]

Thank you for your help. I cant get the gears to mesh on the panels that have rotating circles on them. I will watch this again.

[@MossyMozart]

Did you try waxing the gear teeth and the flat surfaces where they overlap?

[@Lilithly]

11:33 how is the plastic ring not constantly falling out? It sits way too loose for me :/

[@ElisabethPailloux]

hello I have the same problem as you

[@Lilithly]

@@ElisabethPailloux hi ^^ so I managed to get around that problem by gluing the wooden pillars from the lower part of the music box into the holes so they don't constantly move and fall out (wasn't able to glue the plastic ring to the sides so I went for the pillars). Then I turned the thing upside down and it was quite easy to finally put the two parts together.

[@rosemartasgaminghoard]

Spent hours today putting all the side panels together and in place only to have the gears not work. Its aligned alright as far as I can see but it just gets stuck and wont work. I am so worried about it breaking. I read through some of the comments and maybe I didnt wax the middle wheels enough. Guess I will take them out tomorrow and see if that helps. I really want this to work properly, I've always wanted a music box just like this one.

[@lorenznolfi368]

For everyone experiencing the same problem, I found out why. One of the sidewalls is wrongly cut, so the wheel is about 1mm to low and it gets stuck.

[@rosemartasgaminghoard]

@@lorenznolfi368 I noticed this too! I thought I put it together wrong.

[@sandrajimenez4771]

the central shaft flips to the side and stops working. I don't know why it happens, any ideas?

[@bolomaxyt]

Hello, I also just bought it and the same problem happens to me, could you solve it in any way?

[@sharyncanobie2644]

Isn't it better to just get all the pieces for each section rather than the whole lot, to me that would be confusing. I just built the Magic Cello and did it with the illustrations as the writing was in Chinese.

[@elemileTLDR]

Hi. Mine did't come with the wax. Do you know which brand should I use?

[@thequietbuilder714]

I just used normal candle wax.

[@MossyMozart]

@elemileTLDR - According to their site, customs won't allow the kits to ship with wax. They say to use ordinary wax, bees wax, or just candles.

[@ilidanhunter9726]

Does anyone know if one could change the song of the musicbox , as in .. replacing the rotating cilinder ?

[@XaunPark]

No matter how much you lubricate the gears, the gears won't work. The best I did to get all 6 gears working, was to cut more than half of each pinion. I did and succeeded.

[@minimentos3776]

I’m having the same problem. How did you cut it?

[@dream_land69]

Hi. We have some problem, that music box actually is not working. Its look like is stuck, but we didn't see anything to do

[@rosegoldbutterflies3086]

Aw man, this project is super frustrating! Having a hard time getting the gears to work, but I’ll figure it out, I don’t think I’ll end up buying this brand again tho.

[@Justbecause3571]

Where is the first part

[@oxee2188]

LOL this must have been severely edited. You have to do a lot of modification to the parts to get them to fit right mostly around the main drive meeting up with the little gears.

[@thequietbuilder714]

more on re-takes 😅

[@Savannah98709]

How did you modify it please? I’m very stuck on that part. Can’t get it to work

[@testxy5555]

I love this kind of stuff and thank you for making this video! I wonder if there is a thing like the game of throne opening (all the moving mechanics of castles)? If you know, please let me know. I am dying to know :)

[@thequietbuilder714]

I will make more. Real life work just got in the way :)

[@testxy5555]

@@thequietbuilder714 appreciate it ❤

[@HaraldHagenaars]

Which rotating plate are you using?

[@thequietbuilder714]

rotating plate came with the package

[@caitlinpoppenger6979]

This thing is the worst thing I've ever done, it's impossible to get it to actually be functional

[@thequietbuilder714]

it is difficult, sand paper helps, plus wax. It took me a lot of tries before I get it to work properly
