It's been stated already, but clearly the threaded hole in the bottom of the box (after open) is for the foot and a false bottom. Here's to hoping Chris reads this and gets his playing cards :D
@@joegiotta7580 Chris unscrews one of the feet @ 11:25 that has a threaded rod attached... they are saying that you'd screw that foot into the threaded hole you can see inside the open box @ 25:38 , which would open the final hidden spot.
I'm betting that the letters on the bottom of that 3rd drawer were to give the orientation of the cogs when they were placed. It almost seems like Chris just lucked into the correct orientation.
I'm still tryna imagine how that is rigged up. like how the magnets were deactivated by (I'm guessing) a command on an arduino control board. they aren't electromagnets, just regular ones. obviously they are spring loaded drawers, but it's so clever how they activate. maybe held in place (or pushed away from the magnet) by tiny levers? but that'd be a bunch of tiny motors and levers inside very little space and I can't really picture that working, unless it's like super fine clockwork. it didn't sound like any motors moving. just a slight bit of latency as the code responds to the circuits being completed in order, and then out it pops (the last one was the most intense). I know how they were held in place, and that springs launched them, but not how the magnets are disengaged so the spring can decompress. maybe a tiny solenoid repurposed to give the drawer a nudge away from the magnetic bond. or lego pneumatics from an old mindstorm kit? lol, nah that'd never fit. really awesome engineering.
With all the magnets in the drawer maybe the drawers are just launched out by repelling one another and once the prerequisites are met the latches in back of the boxes are realeased and bingo boxes are "yeeted"
Me too but none of the things he did in this were intuitive. He just knew that he was supposed to add the numbers. Then he kept trying the knobs over and over, like he already knew but it just wasn't working for some reason. Then it looks like he "accidentally" got the correct orientation of the cogs on the first try. He usually tries harder to pretend he doesn't already know the solution but he was lazy/sloppy in this video.
I've watched quite a few of your puzzle videos and this one is tops. I can't believe this came off Etsy, you just wouldn't think something of this complexity and quality would come off there. Dunno just my take on it. This puzzle was amazing. The only let down was the box was empty. They should fix that. Perhaps put a $100 bill or something in it.
He got to the part where he was just reading numbers and I immediately thought of the meme of the woman looking confused with mathematical equations floating around. 😂
TBH, as a long-time subscriber, I never think any of your video titles are clickbait...you always deliver what you promise! No BS! BTW, I would lose my mind if I had to solve even one of those puzzle boxes! I am sincerely impressed by your clever intellectual sensibilities! BRAVO!
Chris, I could watch these puzzle videos for days. You have the patience of a saint and the skill of a wizard when it comes to these things! Simply the best my man!! 👍
Looked like there was a false bottom when you opened the lid. Screw in the center you could use the magnet on, maybe? Great video. Amazing intro! Thanks!
I've just found your channel, and I've got to say that I absolutely LOVE it!!! You've got a 15 year old Chinese girl hyped to solve some puzzles! I've never been much interested in puzzles, but the way you passionately talk about them makes them seem so fun. I'm probably going to start solving puzzles soon XD My TH-cam recommendations are finally recommending me good stuff
Tuned in to see how to crack an impossible box, Eric? Some people say to throw money at it, others say to spit game, but honestly, if you make it laugh it should open right up
When it's almost 2am but Chris Ramsay posts a 30 minute puzzle video. Guess who's staying awake. Didn't even feel like 30 minutes, damn you make good videos. Loved it as well. I think that code is where the cogs are meant to start, like with those letters touching the dots to in the order of the cogs to make sure they are in correct orientation.. IDK though.
Chris has a huge knowledge bank from doing 100s of puzzles. I've have some of the puzzles he has shown and they are hard! I get there but he is just so quick.
I have to agree but my first thought was "perhaps that wasn't the end? Perhaps it was a way to fool the person doing it. There were still other mini boxes unused. Perhaps it was one of those that needed to open" But then I thought "that'd be such an awesome way to hide things that are meaningful to me and have nobody be able to figure it out" so ig he got himself a treasure chest to hide his treasure 😂
@@sin3358 He claimed there was nothing in the box without even tapping on the bottom - or unscrewing that screw in the bottom panel. I think he jumped to his conclusion far too quickly.
@@morganfondse6181 I was thinking the same thing, it has that little metal disc right in the middle of the bottom, I kept thinking "try the magnet knob on it and pull!" it did kinda look like a false bottom but then ofc all the electronics have to be somewhere (I thought this was all analog at first but now I'm pretty convinced he used an arduino or something for the sequential circuits).
@@kirkgolembiewski7220 not the magnet part the screw in part that you have to undo to start the puzzle there is a hole with screw threading in the base after the lid opens that looks like the screw on the end of the foot should fit
me in the background, screaming that there's gotta be a secret compartment, puzzle box craftsmen, do NOT go through all that painstaking hard labor to give you an empty box, DO NOT TELL ME IT'S JUST FOR THE THRILL, it's called the impossible box, with a name like that there's gotta be a big relief at the end, like this if you think he should go back to this box and double check!
Looks like there was another drawer on the front. You can see it at 25:42. It could just be where the electrical components are tucked away, but I don't think so. It also looked like there was a metal peg in the middle of the empty box. Maybe pulling on that with the magnet would release it?
Good idea! (I'll hide my USB stick in a puzzle so the feds have to solve it to get at my stash. (Ofc the puzzle is made of only the highest quality/strength materials. Try to break in? It will ruin what's inside.)
This one where electric but plenty of them are not and as such could have been made in ancient times. Now imagine archeologists finding and old box fill with stuff just to troll people.
my first thought when I saw the little metal circle right in the centre of the bottom. could also just be how the innards are accessed. hopefully he'll try it and update us if it's something
I wonder if there’s a false bottom inside-with that metal dot at the bottom that he didn’t use a magnet on. But he messaged the creator and it didn’t come up. I guess I’m just so used to playing cards being in each puzzle box.
I thought the same. there has to be a false bottom to house the electronics etc, but still could be something there (even if it's just a peak inside the guts of this clever marvel).
This has to be one of my fav puzzles you’ve done! Different gizmos, satisfying feedback when it shoots the trays out, and none of the steps felt cheap. Great puzzle and another entertaining solve, Chris!
I have a feeling that you skipped a number of steps by trying out all those letter combinations, lighting up the leds, and ultimately giving you the key. Looks like there are still a few small drawers around the sides, and also a trap door under the main box. But in any case, you did solve it, and it was fun to watch! Oh, and lol, that missing leg making it not standing stable hit a nerve with me :)
@@vamborala You're assuming that he uncovered every possible element of the box and therefore didn't have a tool to unscrew it.. For example, the end of the leg that he unscrewed was never examined, how do you know it didn't have a screwdriver end that he missed? Pardon the pun, but your inability to think outside of the box is what's wrong with your comment..
What I like most about this gut is that it produces quality. He does such a dqmn good job on what he chooses to do how he does it.the editing the he speaks qnd things he speaks about. Idk just a cool guy
EBFG at the bottom of the box, were keys as to what letter a cog should line up with. Also curious if the circle at the bottom inside was another magnet release?
yeah I think the "ALPHa" logo is a clue for the same thing, since that seemed to work as well for the cog orientation, like maybe the developer thought it was too subtle cuz people might just see it as nothing more than the product label. so there's a backup clue that is harder to find but clearer in purpose. but yeah a lil confusing if you find both clues cuz it makes one seem possibly unknown. and yeah I deff immediately thought "magnet key!" there's obviously a false bottom to house the electronics to there could be more room in there (like for a pack of cards). or maybe it lets you peek at the brilliant engineering. or maybe it's just meant to be a really cool box to out stuff in/"the destination was the journey" kind of thing.
this has got to be one of my favorite puzzles that I've seen on here. Looks like a secret object from the 70s or somthing. The analog electronics are awesome.
20:45 - Realizing as I watch for the first time, that the dots at the bottom of each cog are probably to line up the cogs in the correct orientation. So if the code is ALPH like he was thinking, then each letter should correspond to that mark on the lid.
I looked so crazy pointing at the TV and say I KNOW HIM!!! IM ONE OF HIS SUBSCRIBERS!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!….then my wife goes you don’t really know him -_-. And I look at her like YES…I…DO. His name is Chris Ramsey watch……seee…magic!!!
I think E B F G were the alignment you were supposed to place the cogs on the top in . The layout matches the cog posts on top, and the letters E B F G are probably supposed to be pointing to the markers.
Like the play over of your rehearsing the number sequences... could listen again and again. Great fun, which you are masterful at...a "beautiful mind!"
I was thinking putting the foot back on and it standing would open another door or drawer after reattaching it once the drawer was out, a possible connection not there when the drawer was in place- I feel like there is more to the box still but I couldn’t have had this patience level and box creator is great! What an amazing job! Kudos!
I really liked this one a lot. I like the electronic aspect of it. It kind of reminds me of an old vintage radio, or maybe even an electronic instrument of some sort.
I had an idea for you too create your own puzzle that incorporates a magic trick to solve. Since a lot of magic props are created by the magician to look like ordinary items while having a secret function to pull off the illusion, I think it would be cool to have that hidden function as a solution to a puzzle. Not only would the person get the satisfaction of solving a puzzle, they get to learn a magic trick they could use on other people. I'm not sure if something like that exist but I think combining your magic with puzzles would be very popular.
When the magnets are put on the numbers in which you add the two digits to get the code for the knobs...An advanced design idea is to make the positive attractive magnets an add digits together solution and the negative magnets a subtract digits solution as the magnets tried on the back of the box revealed different poles (+/-) on the end of the little plastic pawn knobs.
Is it me or does anyone else watches Chris’s video to fall asleep? It’s not boring to be clear but it’s soooooo good to fall asleep…
Omg me too, I thought I was the only one. His videos are just so relaxing ^^

Just said the same, great minds..
1st thing i thought too ...one year later came to see if others thought the same
I just commented asking what that metal circle was and quick it was over as soon as he opened the top he didn't check the inside much.

The numbers above the letters are what he used to align the cogs. The numbers matched the number of spokes in the cogs.

I was watching and yelling to myself, Chris screw back that damn leg ! XD
What a cool and fun puzzle box .
Chris! When you had the box open, did you try using the big magnet on the metal plug in the bottom wooden plate?!
I thought the same, don't think the puzzle is done!!
Me to i think there is a hidden compartment in the bottom
20:45 - Realizing as I watch for the first time, that the dots at the bottom of each cog are probably to line up the cogs in the correct orientation. So if the code is ALPH like he was thinking, then each letter should correspond to that mark on the lid.
who also could not handle the box tilting because he did not screw back the fourth leg ?
This is definitely one of the most fun ones to watch.
A moment of silence for Chris’s excitement when the box revealed no hidden surprise 🥴
I really enjoy watching you solve these puzzles! Thank God! I do not have the patience to even try to solve these puzzles!
I looked so crazy pointing at the TV and say I KNOW HIM!!! IM ONE OF HIS SUBSCRIBERS!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!….then my wife goes you don’t really know him -_-. And I look at her like YES…I…DO. His name is Chris Ramsey watch……seee…magic!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think E B F G were the alignment you were supposed to place the cogs on the top in . The layout matches the cog posts on top, and the letters E B F G are probably supposed to be pointing to the markers.
there was a magnet at the bottom of the puzzle that could lead to a prize
Yes hope chis try that
I've been watching you for years and just realized you're Canadian. Awesome!
It's weird that this sounds like a voice over recording.
You solved it in 30 minutes. I would solve that in 30 days hopefully!!
Well done!!
Why do i feel so let down that there wasn't cards inside
Fan Tas Tic puzzle! seriously i enjoyed watching and probably i love to solve something like this!
Like the play over of your rehearsing the number sequences... could listen again and again. Great fun, which you are masterful at...a "beautiful mind!"
I was thinking putting the foot back on and it standing would open another door or drawer after reattaching it once the drawer was out, a possible connection not there when the drawer was in place- I feel like there is more to the box still but I couldn’t have had this patience level and box creator is great! What an amazing job! Kudos!
I really liked this one a lot. I like the electronic aspect of it. It kind of reminds me of an old vintage radio, or maybe even an electronic instrument of some sort.
I had an idea for you too create your own puzzle that incorporates a magic trick to solve. Since a lot of magic props are created by the magician to look like ordinary items while having a secret function to pull off the illusion, I think it would be cool to have that hidden function as a solution to a puzzle. Not only would the person get the satisfaction of solving a puzzle, they get to learn a magic trick they could use on other people. I'm not sure if something like that exist but I think combining your magic with puzzles would be very popular.
The ending though 😂😂😂 Chris ive seen most of your videos bud! Love working and watching these puzzles and chill music
Best puzzle I’ve seen
Chris Videos always soothes my heart 💜
You solved it! I'm impressed!
When the magnets are put on the numbers in which you add the two digits to get the code for the knobs...An advanced design idea is to make the positive attractive magnets an add digits together solution and the negative magnets a subtract digits solution as the magnets tried on the back of the box revealed different poles (+/-) on the end of the little plastic pawn knobs.
