I got this for my son for Christmas. He figured out how to take it apart. But didn’t pay attention enough so he could get it back together and asked me to do it. Thanks for you help!!
Awesome vidoe...I sat for about 30 minutes trying to figure it out....then finally said....I bet there is a RU-vid video and sure enough, you rescued me 😂
Thank you so much, had the barrel bamboo puzzle, wasn't sure your step for the ball would work...received this last Christmas and now it's back together. I DID IT... with your help. Merci
Thank you. I use to do this and other puzzles many times over. Unfortunately due to the aging process my memory betrays me at times. A novel idea naming the pieces, which surprisingly to me, helped a bit. ✌🏼🇺🇸
Thank you so much for doing this video. The instructions that came with the ball were very difficult to follow. Your way was much easier. Now I can enjoy taking the puzzle apart and putting it back together. Thanks again!
When I tried taking it apart I got the first 2 pieces out and then couldn’t figure out the rest turns out one of my puzzles pieces was a little to big and was stuck together but with some force it came out I can to this video and figured that out
OMGGGGG....I felt like throwing this thing though the window lol. I finally got everything slotted but I can't get the last piece go flush with the ball, so the end of the wrench is sticking out...ugggggggg. Thanks for the video though. It truly helped. Once I get this solved, it is NEVER coming apart again LOL.
Congrats on putting it together!! Maybe you could try taking it apart and building it again, so the part goes flush? Anyway, hope you get it solved. Anyone who does this puzzle deserves a medal 🥇😊
@@Jojikiba I FINALLY GOT IT AND IT'S A BALL LOL....Thank you for this video...I can't wait to trick someone else into opening the magic ball. Now, on to the next mind-numbing activity lol.
Grazie. Finalmente dopo mesi che i pezzi se ne stavano sparpagliati in giro per casa si sono ritrovati. Ora la palla di legno è stata chiusa al sicuro e non potra più fare male a nessuno.
This happened to me but with the two pieces that slide at 3:23. So I had to break the cage it was in, hammer the pieces till they came free (just hitting the back of a screwdriver resting on the stuck pieces with another screwdriver on different areas and angles), and then put it back, fix the cage, and work from there. From my quick google search, I think it has something to do with the clear-coat not drying properly before it was assembled.
Helped with the names you gave them, only took me 3 attempts. Some of the puzzles, the cross-bow piece is glued or manufactured as one piece rather than two. Otherwise essentially the same.
i used force and now mine is locked in a state in which it cant be disassembled with some pieces still out edit: i disassembled it with force and managed not to break it After seeing how the first two pieces should be put on the two biggest pieces (like you can see at 7:39) i solved this puzzle easily. But first i thought they had to go somewhere else (i thought those E pieces had to go into the big pieces like that), and this small misconception led me on a long path of frustration, seemingly almost completing the puzzle with one or two pieces out multiple times, and thinking this puzzle might be some troll puzzle that cant be solved. I never even got the idea that this incorrect inital placement of those pieces, which seems so fundamental, can still produce something that looks like you just got some minor step wrong, and therefore keep you on your wrong path.
I hated this puzzle so much!! It frustrated me a lot!! There are so many ways and in the end one piece won’t fit or had to be first. You can also combine pieces or shift them and turn them around. Also the way you need to handle it and keeping pieces together! Crazy one. Edit: Looks like I was on the right track but did miss some steps. My god
Ahhh... Couldn’t work out the last piece before putting the ‘crossbow’ in. No matter which way I assembled it, I always couldn’t get ‘the last’ piece in. Cheers
Jojikiba it was the third piece removed. The one that had to come out at the same time as the other. I got it. It was just stuck I had to use a bit of force to get it to slide out. It was the first time taking it apart so I’m assuming it was just stuck from being assembled first
