Hey, it's Aaron.
And today we'll be going through the solution for the Two In One Box.
This puzzle is a level eight on the Puzzle Master difficulty scale. This puzzle,
and many others are available at puzzlemaster.ca.
So just kind of looking through the box: kind of a standard box, has some holes here
and there.
We'll get into that. The main piece of this box is the sliding puzzle at the
top. And this is roughly how you should get it. I'm not...
It's a sliding puzzle. Of course, if it goes through the mail, it might be a,
in a jumble. It's, a whole thing,
I'm not going to worry too much about. Roughly, you want to be at this point.
So
Now we have these grooves in this acrylic,
so we can kind of hold pieces and move them around,
without having to move an entire row, as I am poorly
demonstrating.
Okay.
So this is the first piece that's going to accept a marble.
It's just the only one that actually is capable.
Sorry about the glare too. It's just, you know, it's a sliding puzzle.
I can't really help it.
Okay.
So we moved this one underneath this piece and we don't want to break this
organization we have, or how you've done this.
So we're just going to rotate
that over.
And then we can get our first marble.
Now we can't be greedy and take both of them at the same time.
These pieces just won't move with two marbles in play.
So now we're going to undo what we just did with our sliding blocks
and get it back to that starting position.
And then we're just gonna
rotate them around,
until we're here. Now we can transfer this ball up here.
No, I don't want to do that.
So we're more or less just going in a circle with these pieces.
So now we'll drop this marble down. We will attempt to keep it down there.
Now,
the reason why I have to keep shaking it is there's just a little piece of wood
that's sticking up. It's not the end of the world.
It's just this one puzzle I have is like that.
I don't even know if it's like that for all of them.
So we have it out.
Now put this somewhere safe where it doesn't roll into the couch or wherever.
I think I have a lens cap here, I'll just put it in. Ah, why not show it
right there. Anyway,
we'll just quickly get this second marble, as you get to watch the shaky
camera.
Yeah.
I should have maybe, like, cherry picked one of these.
Made sure it wasn't one of the ones that needs to be shaken. But then again,
it's a sliding puzzle and its wood on acrylic. I mean, what do you expect.
So like before we transferred that piece to there.
And the reason why you have to put it in this,
this one piece, is just because it's offset; it lines up with that hole.
It's the only piece that does. So we got both balls out.
Now this is the part where I think a lot of people are going to screw up because
you have all these holes in the sides and some of them are blocked. Like that
one's blocked, this one's blocked, this one isn't and this one isn't.
And you can put the ball bearings into these holes, as well.
And then you're going to need an external tool and I'll show you what I mean
here shortly. One thing I don't like about that puzzle,
they should really block those holes. So we want this hole here. So it's
this corner. You should be able to extrapolate which hole it is from here.
It's always the same.
And we're going to put our two ball bearings in there and we're going to press
down and that's more or less just a latch that we're pushing
up against.
So it's open now and that's, as far as it opens.
It's not a very...
Not a very big opening. Can't really... You could hide stuff in it,
I guess, but there's your latch. Now,
if you put these in the side, which you can. I mean...
I'm going to...
You can push those in the side and then it's just trapped in the box.
And there's a little bit of friction on these two holes.
So there's really no way to get it out of the box until it's open.
So what you'd do is you'd probably just get a pen and just depress it,
so you can get into your box and you don't have to try to disassemble the whole
thing. So yeah,
luckily resetting super fast on this puzzle, which I like a lot.
They give you one of those cool laser etched or lasered out grooves that you can push
the ball bearings into.
And then if you're evil, you can mix this up way more than,
what it comes as. Yeah. Two In One.
