The pin in the drawer, which comes out when you turn it upside down does make sense because when you turn the whole box upside down all the pins would be in the "solution position" (flush with the top of the box). The pin in the drawer then comes out and prevents you from pulling the drawer out. It's basically an anti-cheat pin.

Now we know how it works. Wonder if we could hack it by sliding a piece of paper to cover the drawer pin and just flip the box and slide it out.

10:48 It very much makes sense, because if the 5th pin was not there all you would have to do to open the box is turn it upside down. The 5th pin stops that from happening. When you turn it upside down all 4 pins retract, but the 5th pin engages, so it doesn't open.

Think that pin was there so you can't open it by flipping it upside down, setting the other pins, but u setting the safety

That pin that comes out when you turn upside down stops you from cheating.

I would prefer to not have a membership version of your channel, but maybe a second channel for behind-the-scenes stuff. Like it would be neat to see your displayed collection, filming equipment, how you edit, any other items that aren't puzzle related or too big to show on these vids, that sort of thing

The pin on the drawer is there because otherwise you could just turn it upside down and open the drawer. An anti-tampering mechanism basically.

hopefully that pin in not magnetic, because then you would only need 1 magnet to open the box or a tricky way of holding it, so the top pins slide but the bottom one doesn't

Did no one else notice that the correct magnetic positions have very faint circular marks on that brass plate? Not that it matters that much for there are only 6 positions but still.

Only to be helpful, at 2:36 it’s "cast metal", not "casted metal".

Looks like that extra pin is there to prevent you from opening it by turning it upside down (my guess)

Good to see you back so soon! 😀 Cool looking puzzle.

The 5th pin keeps the box locked when it's turned upside down.

When you found the first magnet, it made sense to me how to solve it. And just like the other pins, the front pin in the pull-out drawer is to prevent the unaware from flipping it upside down and opening it without first solving it. It also helps that I've watched enough Chris Ramsay videos to know what to expect from certain puzzle designs

Oh wow! Mr. Puzzle that's wonderful news I love your content so I am super excited to hear that we're going to get a lot more puzzles solved. But I mostly love your enthusiasm and excitement in your voice when you're solving them. And yes of course I watched your video right to the very end

The outside knob should have had a hole 3/4 of the way through it for the 'latch pin' to slide into so that if the pin were holding the box closed when upside down, rotating the hole in the front knob would 'lock' the box no matter which way you turned it. Unlocking would require not only finding the magnetic pieces and putting them in place but also rotating the front knob to release the 'latch pin' into that hole.

@Mr.Puzzle

The extra pin is to stop the draw from opening when you turn it upside down. i.e. If you turn it upside down the locking pins will slide into the open state and the draw would be able to be opened. But, with the fifth pin when you turn it upside down it will fall into the locking state and prevent you from opening the draw. BTW: Thank you. I always enjoy watching you solve all these puzzles that I cannot afford to buy myself.

The extra pin does make sense, given it’s from the inner piece it’s action would be so that when you flip the box (and the pins coming from the outer box retract) that extra pin drops out stopping you from accidentally opening the draw by flipping the box 👍🏻

10:42 from what I gather that pin is to keep you from bumping it open since if you turn it upside down the other pits would open but that 1 pin would keep in closed

have you ever got so frustrated with a puzzle box that you throw it against a wall and the hidden object falls out :)

Another banger from Mr Puzzle

Great job Mr. Puzzle ! 👍

5th pin is so you don't turn the thing over and just pull the drawer out

Could you do a Mr. Puzzle library of puzzles tour some time? I would be fascinated by your museum.

That would be sneaky! But I think it was maybe meant as a red herring. Because it is over the knob, someone might think it is important to make sure one is over that spot to hear the click!

Always a fan of puzzle boxes. Or anything really but my favorites are the boxes. Though sadly I don't have any specific recommendations as your videos tend to introduce me to puzzles.

looks sick!

I think that extra pin is to lock it when the box is upside down. As soon as I saw how the other pins worked, I wondered what was stopping it from unlocking when upside down. I think that’s the purpose of that additional pin.

regarding the pin in the front that you did not understand what was it for. The 4 magnetic pin when not magnetized they are probably free to move, meaning that if you flip the box upside down they all flip out of the way. The front pin act as the lock when the box is upside down so that you cannot bypass the mecanism.

This puzzle looks awesome! I also get that videogame vibe from it, puzzle/quest games love things ike that. P.S. As a regular viewer of the channel I'm honestly pretty happy with what I see, so I don't think I'd want something else.

I think the 4th pin is their so that the box doesn't open if you turn it upside down. Pretty clever.

That 5th pin is so you can't open it upside down.

watching you move the magnets and making extra steps for yourself gave me anxiety lol

No the fifth pin is so if u turn it up side down the other four pins would release and beable to open but the fifth pin stops that from happening.

The fifth pin drops when turned upside down to lock the puzzle as the magnetic pins unlock.

This ones very cool

Christian, think about the pin in front of the drawer... There is a purpose to it why it engages when the box is flipped around 😉

10:33 If that pin wasn't there, the difficulty of this puzzle would be lower: flip over the puzzle and volia... you can open it.

@FirstLast-gw5mg

Spring loading the pins would also be a way to avoid the flipping it over solution. Might be a little bit more fiddly though as the springs would need to be tensioned properly so the magnet could retract the pin but gravity didn't.

very nice one!

The puzzle could be more difficult if some pawns had repelling magnets with a spring loaded pin, so you have to pull some pins and push others

The "upside-down"-pin is VERY important and can´t be on the other side. It protects the whole system from opening just when turning it upside down. If it would not be there, you could always open the drawer as soon as it is upside down.

Keeps you from opening the box just by turning it upside down

I think the pin is to block ppl from turning it upside to open the draw. That way the 4 pins will be in the unlock position but the pin in the fifth spot will now be in the locked position

Maybe they could make a box that connected to a chessboard and the function of the box is to give random stats on the pieces or een additional joined board

Chess Chest! ........ Surely!

I think the fifth pin is for keeping the drawer in the box if you turn it upside down

Call it the Pawn Shop

i bet you the extra pin is magnetic, and when you smacked it it came down with out notice.

The 1 pin on the bottom keeps you from turning it upside down and opening it instead of using the magnets

Chess puzzle is now literal

This intro is reminiscent of a Chris Ramsey video. And I'm here for it.

Heh heh. "It fits a deck of cards" 👌

Very clever box and fun to see you solving it. I'm not really a fan of a membership version.👍

That pin is there so you can't cheat it. If you turn it upside-down to release the four pins the pin in the door will drop preventing you from opening it.

Put money in it and tell a kid if they can open it they can keep the.money thats inside. This way the kids learn and get rewarded for doing so..

This puzzle looks like something straight out of "The Room" series (escape room games for PC).

Der eine "komische" Pin ist dafür da, damit man das Puzzel nicht einfach auf den Kopf stellt.

It would be awesome if they made a harder version. Where there would be an up-side down pin randomly on the playing field. So when a magnet went over it, the pin would lock into place. Giving the person trying to solve it sort of a red herring.

The front pin is so that you can't just open it up by turning it upside down. All of the pins are subject to gravity, and turning the puzzle upside down would release all of the pins expect the front one, which would lock the drawer instead.

The front pin is an anti-bump pin.

Puzzles in India? Impressive!

if those pins are movable with gravity, then that last pin is there so that you can't open it when its upside-down and unsolved. Might be able to jiggle it open when its on its side, but why would you do that to such a satisfying puzzle.

That pin is to keep you from going around the solution by lifting the pins when it’s upside down.

I like the ancient look of the puzzle but for 170 bucks they could have at least put something inside - and if its just a paper that says congratulations. They could put a discount voucher inside for the next puzzle which would make both the puzzle maker and the customer happy. Or put an old looking chess king in there or something like that.
