You're a very patient guy. Not many people can produce these types of puzzles by themselves without losing patience. I know it's your job to do these kind of things but i deeply respect you for your work :) Greetings from France
That puzzle is a work of art.
You always seem so chill and relaxed.
Best regards, Tony, Wow..! This puzzle is surprising and well worth the cost you assign
Can we take a moment to appreciate the effort he has put into that
how long did that take
19:52 NOOOO! NOT LOBOTOMY!!!! ANYTHING BUT THAT!!!!
Why do the pieces need filling?To prevent lockups?

I am changing the shape so if I don't fill them they will just be open.

The mf8 petaminx’s purple and pink stickers look identical
the success you know, the struggle you don't.
Holy cow, he made 2 of these things. Roughly 160 hours of tedious work. I wouldn't even be ably to do a corner section of this thing. Nice job Tony. Keep it up.
What was the piece that didn't need filler? The corner?

I never thought, I would watch the whole video, but I did. This is one of the most amazing demonstrations of craftsmanship and inhuman patience on youtube.
I wouldn't even have the patience to scramble the damn thing, let alone make one. Your determination is stellar.
My son and I just got into cubing recently. We have several different types, but nothing nearly as fancy as the ones you make. I wish I had your talents, or even your patience. We have enjoyed watching your youtube videos. Thank you from both of us for all the time and work you put into creating such amazing puzzles. Very impressive.
looks like tony went BALLS to the wall with this one
I really enjoy the commentary.
Guys I know what his face looks like! Look up the definition of PATIENCE!

Just incredible how much patience this project must have taken. Good job. The petaball looks perfect.
I love how creative you are getting with your shots. It is truly a joy to watch you craft and become better at the craft of making videos at the same time.
I felt just anxious watching you pull it apart each time. Kudos to your determination and persistence!
You must have SERIOUS time on your hands, all these steps and how long it took. I would have stopped two mins into organising and would throw the parts away!

+Tony Fisher So basically you have all the time in the world to do this
This is just amazing. I would never in a million years be able to do that.. Good job Tony!
I can't understand how you can manage such a level of patience for so long. Well done. I applaud you. All I know is that I could never do something like this. Again, amazing job.
Your dedication and patience are admirable. Simply amazing!
This man is an artist, an absolute Genius! Everything he makes is a work of art.
This... Is craftsmanship. Bravo Mr.Fisher, Bravo
Glad to see people like you who spend dedicated time and money to make some of the coolest puzzles i've ever seen, kdep up the good work.
Absolute detication. This must take an enigma to craft such masterpieces, and to solve mind bending puzzles. It truely is art.
Have you ever slipped while cutting a piece and ruined the whole thing? Can you make an extra piece if you screw up cutting something?
This man is the most patient man in the world.
That is some serious dedication to the build, but the result is fantastic.
Wowza pretty unreal, didn't expect to sit through the whole video. Amazing
What talent you have. That was really cool to watch! Thanks for sharing!!!
How you are able to do this is what impresses me. You put so much effort into making your puzzles, and it really pays off!
Wow!! You're a machine!! For the human eye that's a perfect sphere!! I wouldn't be able to do that in my whole life!! Amazing work, and it's really nice that you share the process with us :D
This is very admirable, great work!
that was the most beatiful cube did i see in the world I kneel and I applaud (and suscribe and like)

Awesomely done! U r a very hardworking person.
Putting all the pieces together looks so satisfying, it that came out as a lego type puzzle, I'm gonna buy it
Nice work, the finished puzzle looks amazing.
One word. Dedication. :-) Great job! It turned out amazing!
Hey tony, this video inspired me to make a ball cube of my own. Although a lot easier I have started to makes a megaminx ball. Thanks for the high quality videos!
Thank you for inspiring me to make a teraminx ball. I love teraminxes.

Just saw this and almost had to cry because it looks so great 👍
woow!!! you are crazy. that was amazing. you are very pattient
I like how Tony is laughing in front of the universe using a dremel, petaminxes , milliput, screwdrivers and a knife
Excelent work. Watching this was really enjoyable and with full of admiration. Solution with stickers was a really good choice. Oliver's ones are just great and look even better on your ball. Funniest part? The dremel cam :)
Did you do at different times or all in one go.
citadel paints are available world wide through games workshop. I've got a can or two. its good stuff.
Amazing, that's determination!
I couldnt even re-assemble my 4x4

Nice video, I really like your construction videos.
Excellent video and puzzle!
You Must Be a very Patient Man ,That would Driven Me Mad!
No way... I just got into cubing about a month ago, I knew absolutely nothing... I bought a 4x4 thinking, this is impossible. And then, this, how are you so patient and hard working??? I tried to mod a Dayan 3x3 and failed, and yet here is the awesome Tony Fisher being awesome. I just wanna say, keep up the awesome work and puzzle amazingness. Oh, and how much is a petaball, I want to save up for it!
How are you supposed to grip that?
Tony Fisher is my Bob Ross :)
Absolutely beautiful.

Hi Tony. I find a lot of your videos really interesting and enjoy them immensely. I have a few questions for you, if you don't mind: 1> This project took 2 work weeks plus overtime and a little outsourcing to Oliver. During the time you were doing it, were you in a Zen zone and allowed the sounds of the project to move you forward? Or did you need some background music or otherwise to keep you focused? I find that when I'm doing projects I love, even if it might get tedious at times, I need some music to help me. If so, what do you turn to? 2> Hand mods are amazing, but I always wondered why certain designs never get mass produced. Why do you think this is the case? Even in limited editions, a cast made version of many of your ideas, and many of Oskar's ideas as well, would most likely sell to collectors or aficionados. Is it legality, practicality, or marketability? Cheers!

+Erich w/ an h Thanks. It varies depending on when I am working and what task I am doing. Mostly though I have the TV on and watch / listen to a program or film that doesn't require full attention. For example I have just rewatched the box set of Lost including all the bonus material. I have also gone through old shows like Rescue Me, Aufweidsein Pet, Lexx, Farscape plus endless repeats of The Big Bang Theory currently on UK TV. The royalties associated with mass produced puzzles are typically very low. This is because usually only a few thousand are likely to sell and injection moulding set-up costs are very high. In most cases it is better for me to sell my own custom made versions.

+Tony Fisher Thanks for the reply 8^) 2> That makes a lot of sense, thank you kindly 8^) 1> Good picks! Might I suggest any episode of Wossy featuring Tim Minchin, or Wossy hosting Penn & Teller Fool Us (series 1 UK, because series 2 US was a bit... watered down, despite not being bad)? They help me a bunch in the background. Cheers again! ~Erich w/ an h
That looks REALLY, REALLY difficult at 23:00. I can't imagine how you got this done without giving up. Anyway, great job!
Wow! Beautiful...
Well done, I know you may never sell it, but if you did how much would you put it up for ? And also have you lubed it or are you planning to lube it ?
Have you considered getting custom printed vinyl sheets for the corners? It seems like that would be more practical than cutting the stickers that small.

Yes that was an option but to ensure the colours matched I think every sticker would have to be printed. I was a bit worried about the durability of such stickers and whether the colours would be as nice.
is perfect oooww, is very impressive, impresionant work
it's a crazy work !!
How long did it take to assemble?
Kudos to you man.
superb!
does it move smoothly?
Whats the most time consuming process of turning this puzzle into a ball?
Wow I had fun watching it!!
