- Lee.
I want you to verify that all the cards are different.
- [Lee] Yeah.
- Yes? - Yes.
- Uh cut the deck anywhere in half.
Have a look at that card.
Alright, remember that card, put the cards back.
I have no idea what card you cut to.
It could have been any one of these.
Try and read your mind Lee. Alright? Here we go.
(spitting)
I'm gonna try and write a prediction here, okay?
- (Lee) Alright.
(upbeat music)
(Lee laughs)
- Did I get it?
- [Lee] No.
- Really? Oh. Hold on.
Actually, a box of cards. You see?
And your card is actually...
- [Lee] What!?
How? What the hell?
How are you doing that?
- In that box, Lee, your card
the three of diamonds.
- [Lee] No way.
What?
- Yeah boy! (mumbles)
What's up guys? Welcome back!
Bonus video for your Saturday.
Hope you guys are having a good weekend.
On the bonus Saturday, we're looking at
a little puzzle. I thought it'd be nice
to check out a little Hanayama puzzle.
This is the Cast Dial.
This is the produced by Hanayama, a little metal trinket.
The middle part of this, actually spins around,
it's kind of weird.
Reminds me of that UFO puzzle that
we solved not to long ago.
And yeah, this is considered a level four out of six,
which makes it roughly a level eight or nine.
Hanayama puzzles are always a little bit more tricky
and always very tactile.
Get your fingers ready.
Guys, without further ado. I don't have much to say
about this puzzle other than:
I don't know what's going to happen.
Let's get right into it.
(whooshes)
Look at this little guy. So cute. It's so cute.
(laughs) You thought I would. (beeping)
Here's the interesting thing about this puzzle, watch this.
This thing rotates.
And it goes around. But also, these two dials,
also separately (groans) little bit of grease here,
oh, yes they do, they rotate. So those rotate.
Also, this black piece is made of two pieces.
Not exactly sure how they come apart.
And looks like it just doesn't. But I'm sure it does.
We're gonna put, we're gonna take all this apart,
and put it back together.
We can maybe, something's here.
Well that shimmies a little bit.
Should we try the one move?
(metal clanking)
Oh. That did something. It did absolutely nothing, okay.
So, let's try to figure this out.
We see the inside of this?
Not really, there's just two parts on the inside.
And that's caught there, so,
maybe these slide apart somehow.
(metal clanking)
Or maybe this just...
maybe this just comes apart, very easily.
Watch this. Watch!
(grunts)
Nope. Not happening.
Oh, this seems to move just a little bit.
I bet this slides out somehow.
(metal clanking)
Thing is with the Hanayama, everything's so precise,
that you need to get it in the exact position
in order to unlock it.
I don't know what that position is just yet.
Dial. Why would it be called a dial?
Obviously cause it has a dial. Hmm.
See? This kind of moves freely here.
(metal clanking)
Let's see here.
I'm trying to force the side here to, like,
slip by rotating this.
(metal clanking)
I feel like it wants to come apart.
Keep trying different combinations of the dial.
If I keep turning the dial just a little bit,
and try different combinations here.
(metal clanking)
(metal thuds)
Oh.
Oh, it feels like it wants to come apart.
Like there's a tiny bit of give here.
You can kinda see.
The smallest amount of give.
(metal clanking)
Hmm.
Hmm. You see that? Look, that's the smallest amount
of give right there.
And that's kinda how it has to come apart.
I'm thinking the middle part slides with this part.
I just have to find the correct orientation,
I guess, of the dials.
(metal clanking)
I see something on the inside of this, you see those
little metal pins? Yeah, they're pretty much
lined up, I think.
Guess not.
(metal clanking)
Grr.
Something's happening. Oh! It's split
a little more right now.
I'm keeping that orientation. Just split ever so lightly.
You hear that?
(metal clicks)
There's like, it's coming apart, I can't, look.
(metal clicking)
It's coming apart in the middle here, somewhere.
Okay, one of these is also larger than
the other one for some reason.
I feel like I'm getting somewhere, but I'm also
feeling like I'm getting nowhere at the same time.
(relaxing jazz music)
(metal clanking)
Alright so, cause this one is larger, this side's larger
than that side. I'm betting that there's a thinner side
and a thicker side down there too that looks like
the thinner side is on top, where the dial is.
So, I bet that it has to be like this for it
to come apart, now I just have to find the proper
orientation. The only clue I could find so far.
(relaxing jazz music) (metal clinking)
Oh! Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!
Here we go!
Finally did something, yay!
Alright, look at that.
So it's split in half. I'm guessing I need to
rotate this dial, or the bottom one, to get it out
completely. Top one seems to be locked in place.
And this one can move, so. Maybe I'll just...
keep turning the gizmo here. It's kind of locked here.
(metal clanking)
(metal jingling)
Just slowly trying to find the proper,
cause the other one doesn't turn anymore, the other one
is stuck completely. So, I guess I only have
to turn this one.
(metal clanking)
No! No! Oh nooooo!
Should have remembered the orientation
of these two things before...
(metal clanking)
It feels like it wants to open up again.
(metal clanking)
Boom.
(metal clanking)
I can't see any of the mechanics on the inside
to know what's going on. This is the only moving part
right now, is this.
I feel like, all I have to do is just keep trying to
figure out where that latch or hole is
that this falls through.
That the two pieces separate.
(metal clanking)
It's stuck right about here.
Feel like each side has to be correctly oriented.
So, I just kinda lucked out, I think, on the first bit.
(metal clicks)
(thud) (sighs)
Okay, so I found the way to get this out.
Is that, this, needs to point to the Hanayama symbol.
Right about there.
And then that is unlocked. Now this one gets stuck.
So only this one can move now.
(metal clanking)
Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, come on.
(metal clanks and thuds) Boom!
Alright. (sighs)
Alright, well that's half of the battle.
Look at the inside of that.
(exhales) That was something else.
Oh, so it goes in and then it rotates in. (whoosh)
(metal clanking)
I'm guessing that has to go with this.
Inside, inside.
(metal clanking)
I guess I just put them in individually.
Oh, I see why they have to be lined up. Oh.
(metal clanking)
Well, how does that go back in? Oh, I see.
It's gotta be this way.
How does that fit in?
(metal clanking)
There's the two prongs...
(metal clanking)
Okay, you know what?
(metal clanking)
What if I just..
Drop it in the hole?
(relaxing music)
(metal clicks)
If I hold it up straight...
Ooh yeah, that's right.
I'm just holding it up straight and kinda turning this
one and it's falling into place.
When'll this move, now I go back to here, go to the dial.
(metal clanking)
Ooh! Got it.
(metal clanking) Oh my god, get out of my life. (sighs)
Here we go, boom. An hour an seven minutes.
Cast Dial, actually really difficult.
Not that easy at all. You soften the inside,
it takes a precise amount of movements,
and not only do you have to dial it in,
once you dial in, you have to turn the other side,
dial out, come back in, and then open and bit of a headache,
but, the inner mazes, I guess with trial and error,
easy enough to figure out after an hour.
If you spend enough time with it, you'll probably
figure it out.
Hope you enjoyed that! It was a bit strenuous,
still a lot of fun, I like these little puzzles,
they're fun to play with. I got a little bowl that
I keep all these puzzles in for when my friends
come over and they kinda have fun toying around with them.
Anyways, left a link below to this puzzle if you guys
are interested, you can check it out. That's all for me,
have a good weekend, we'll see you on Monday.
