I remember buying this as my first hanayama puzzle when I was 14 and learning how to take it apart and back together, I took it with me everywhere and repeated the puzzle and its still my favorite.
I’ve had this puzzle sitting in my room all messed up cause I could not for the life of me solve it. It had probably been around 5~6 years of sitting there with me trying time and time again after disassembling it. After looking at this video and following it step by step, I can now say that it is properly assembled. Thank you!
THANK YOU. I placed this puzzle in a drawer durring a move across country, and it rattled itself into an incoherent mess! You helped me disassemble and reassemble it so I can have a go at it myself!
한국,Korea: 감사드립니다! 이 영상을 처음에 보고는 뭐지? 하고 계속 봤는데 이제 이해가 돼네요!정말로 감사합니다! 영어,English:Thank you so much! What was the first thing you saw when you saw this video? I kept watching and now I get it! Thank you so much!
It took me a few days to disassemble it, but I don’t count that as “solving”. To me, solving is disassemble and reassemble and understanding it so that I can consistently redo the process. It took me three months to reassemble it and understand how it worked. Three months.
Vortex is one of the most difficult Hanayama puzzles. 3 month is a good result. Took me a lot of time to understand hot to solve it as well.
You got more patience than me. I took it apart and refuse to attempt to put it back together. I can't do it
Tough one! Couldn't do it without your video, tnx..
Can't believe it I been working on this for almost 3 days too and I just dropped it and it came apart lol
Now the most difficult part, put it back together. And you can't do it by dropping the puzzle 😆
Bullshit...
Bullshit
@@user-jz3vc9kd2j no - it comes apart pretty easily
i was trying to take it apart then dropped it then it fixed to its normal state.. w h a t
I got it to the part where everything was out of their mini loops, and just needed to get them out now, fidgeted with it and eventually found a movement that flowed way to well, then got the one piece out easily, but literally struggled so hard on getting the last two separated that I got the two restuck in the mini loop, that was really stupid but eventually I got em lined up and damn that movement for the final separation was really satisfying, doesn’t look like it would work but beautiful craftsmanship…. Great puzzle! Solved in maybe an hour-90 minutes and not bad for only my second puzzle.
Thank you! I have to admit this was the first Hanayama puzzle that defeated me, so I am grateful for this video to allow me to reassemble it!
You are not alone. This is one of the most difficult Hanayama puzzles.
@@Puzzleguy I have about 20 Hanayama puzzles, and I’ve figured them all out by myself - except for this one. My favourite is called “Infinity” and it took me about four or five hours to solve.
@@OldManLink I like the Baroq puzzle. It is one of my favorite from Hanayama. The solution is as elegant as the puzzle itself.
I DID IT!!!🎉🎊🎉🎉🎉
🥳🍾🎉
Two days to disassemble it (last part while not watching it and without knowing how) and never reassembled until following your instructions. This puzzle is insane!
Yes, it is in top 3 difficult Hanayama puzzles. I'm sure i can't solve it now without instructions or it will take me hours to find solution again.
I agree 100% with the title. This is the hardest Hanayama puzzle I've done too! Took me three days to take apart.
And one week to assemble it again 😄
Mine was stuck for a while as well. But i managed to solve it at last
3 days is a long time,, considering you solved the level 4 cylinder in 22 seconds
Just got this puzzle not looking at the difficulty level was stuck for a few hours 😬 thank you for your video!!!!!!
Your reassemble is by far the easiest on the internet to follow! Thank You again for all the help!
I just solved it in 25 minutes... Now I need to put it back together Dx. I love these puzzles!!!!
First puzzle I ever got, somehow took it apart but forgot how to put it back together so it's been sitting on my desk halfway assembled for years. Idk why I bought a difficulty 6 puzzle for my first but oof
First puzzle and you managed to take it apart? That is impressive 😜
My 7 th but my first was a level 5
Solved in 7 mins
I have this beauty and it is a devil lock 1st class. Taking it appart is not that big of a problem but i only managed to put it together once while looking at what i was doing. All the rest times i managed to put ut together was going all the way to the last step and placed it in my hand and kept playing/turning it in my palm without looking while my hand found the right way and shape and it suddenly fit together on its own.
This was one of my first and I took it apart in a few minutes. It was left unassembled for multiple years but I have reignited my puzzle interest and managed to get it together in less than 2 days. Took around 90-120 minutes I would say
The odd shape of the 3 pieces makes it extremely hard to visual what part should move whatever way and it could drive you crazy. The designers at hanayama are sadistic af for making this insane puzzle. Looks cool sitting on the shelf with all the other metal hanayama puzzles. They look like little alien devices in my opinion 😂
This puzzle was driving me crazy until I watched this. You’re such a big help. Great video, great job. Keep up the good work!
Cast Vortex is one of the most difficult Hanamaya puzzles. Glad my video was helpful. Like, subscribe, share and leave comment. I have a lot more cool puzzles on my channel.
So my 2 year old asked for this and pulled the thing apart in the back seat on a 10 min drive home. I’ve been trying to put it back together ever sense😂
I've had this puzzle for years, I solved the cylinder easily, and there was another I did easy but I forgot the name. I just found this puzzle in a box of my old stuff and now I need to solve it xD
4:53 the hanayama curve ended up on top of the vortex curve. Any way to fix that?
I agree this is by far the toughest (although padlock is just as fiddly albeit with less steps required). I struggled to keep up with this video. There is another that takes 40 minutes plus and I only just managed to follow that one. Extremely clever puzzle. How do they come up with these?!
Puzzle designers are insanely clever. Watch Hanayama Hourglass video. It is the most difficult Hanayama puzzle so far.
@@Puzzleguy Thanks for the recommendation! I really enjoy the Hanayama puzzles and not yet tried Hourglass...looks very tough! I often solve by intuition then end up watching your videos to understand what it was I actually did! Any other manufacturers you particularly recommend also?
@@liamburford3264 There are a lot of amazing puzzles out there. All depends on how much money do you want to spend on a puzzle and if you have any preference. Yuu Asaka's puzzles are awesome. Jigsaw 29, Jigsaw 19. I have both of them solved on my channel. Most of the puzzles made by Jean Claude Constantine and Siebenstein-Spiele are great. Watch my latest video where i solve 3d Wooden Sudoku cube. Great puzzle in my opinion. If you like high quality wooden puzzles, watch my videos about puzzles made by Pelikan.
@@Puzzleguy Thanks! Will be sure to check out your website. Keep up your great work :-)
I have eventually mastered this puzzle. I can take it apart and rebuild it in less than a minute. Now I’m looking for another hard puzzle. Any suggestions
I took it apart in minutes, and it took me a year to get it back together
This one actually looks like it's pretty quick to put together.
It took me a couple hours to take it apart, but putting together is so difficult. (I haven't figured it out)
You made that look too easy, I'm afraid to take mine apart now!
I still can't get it.. The ay piece is Infront of the hanayama piece and I watched the video a lot to go through steps but I can't figure it out
Vortex is the most difficult Hanayama puzzle. It took me a lot of time to understand how to solve it. Put puzzle back together to it's assembled state and start from the very begin. Do exactly as i do on video. Repeat all the moves i do.
Thank you, I solved it :D
@@Puzzleguy How do you put it back together if it's in the middle??
@@charlesjacobs3280 That is quite difficult to understand where it is in the middle. Find in my video exact look of your part and try to follow my steps
@@Puzzleguy Ok, I will do so, thank you.
Very good😊😊
I just wondering is this harder puzzle than hourglass for you and so far hardest hanayama puzzle I solve is Rotor and I will try hour glass and vortex next week and I also want to know what is your top three hardest hanayama puzzle so I can some idea and challenge it
You named all puzzles from my top 3. Hourglass is the hardest. Vortex is next and Rotor is the 3rd.
@@Puzzleguy thank you and that’s very fast reply!
I bought this today lol my first one! I already solved it with no tutorials
I just did it in 8 minutes.. I can’t believe it!!!
thk u so much omg it so difficult
It is one of the most difficult Hanayama puzzles.
Hard but solved it in my head
you are genius! 😄
From where I can get this
There are two links in video description. Or you can find nearest puzzle store, Hanayama puzzles are very popular all around the world.
Puzzle guy thank you
Help! My puzzle is stuck in some werid crease and I can’t get it to get back on track to get untangled... i made it more tangled and don’t know what to do
Send me 2-3 pictures of your stuck puzzle, I'll try to help you.
Puzzle guy how do you want me to send them to you? Can
Facebook, twitter, Instagram, or e-mail. kzhead.infoabout
와...이 영상덕분에 볼텍스 풀었습니다...
I'm so glad there is google translate :)
This puzzle cost me over $50k ,, First I threw the puzzle and broke the TV, I lost my job and I am getting divorced and need to pay child support, but I almost disassembled the puzzle. Only 18 more steps
Prepare yourself to spend more. That is only half of the job. Next you have to assemble it. 😱
@@Puzzleguy Is the Hanayama Radix much easier, because that is the one I am working on now
Radix is difficult as well, but not as complicated as Vortex.
@@Puzzleguy thank you for the great videos,, I have the cylinder, and radix,, can you suggest another great puzzle
You have only Hanayama puzzles, do you want to stick to Hanayama. or try something else?
Ok i got this one for Christmas, first puzzle ever, I don't understand anything, my sister tried something so now I have it in mess and I don't know how to put I back or how to finish it XD, still don't want to get the solution, I'll try these days
You've got one of the most difficult puzzles by Hanayama. Don't be upset if you can't solve it yourself. It is very hard. Tip - check all grooves, cutouts and protrusions.
@@Puzzleguy I will, thank you. Btw merry Christmas
Thank you and Merry Christmas 😉
So I'm not as bad at this one as I thought cause at one point I watched the first few steps just to get started, and ended up doing what I was supposed to. Almost anyhow.
literally solveda puzzle I had for 3 years that had lost interest in because how complicated it is in 5 mins, it was very easy tearing apart (just play with it randomly) but oh man I didn't solve it until today...
Same but i accidentally solved it cant put it back together though
Which is harder, Hourglass or Vortex
I would say Hourglass since solution requires much more steps to solve it
Around 8:00 it starts getting frustrating to figure out what to do, which I hope wouldn't happen.
Took me 30min to solve it but putting it back together ....that's another story
I accidentally solved my vortex puzzle by putting it in my pocket and just fiddling with it rather when I try to put it back together... I was seven weeks in So I resorted to this video
Put it back in your pocket and say put it back the way u found it. It will magically put it back together😁
I solved the infinity puzzle quickly but this thing is kicking my ass
It is in top 3 hardest Hanayama puzzles
@@Puzzleguy I can definitely tell I will get it eventually
I think somehow, a piece mightve moved how it wasn't supposed to and I might be stuck sadly
we gift Hanayama Puzzles to our Son (18yo) - this puzzle took weeks , yes it is the hardest so far.
U and u next please I need help assembling it again
I have it solved on my channel kzhead.info/sun/pMWAhdN9a5ipp3k/bejne.html
I normally love your content, but this is by far the weakest and even more infuriating than the puzzle itself. I just ended up throwing this thing away. For complex puzzles like this, slowing down the steps (each step you did is less than 2 seconds before moving to the next one) and different camera angles are needed
Your tutorial needs a tutorial
After solving this, it was annoying to have to keep looking at the detailed notes I made. I therefore offer the following mnemonics: Linking the first linear chain: Alex Van Halen Linking the chain into a circle: AH! Threading the three needles: A**Hole, ViagrA, Hi-Vis If you understand all that, you're welcome :)
I bought it today at walmart. Same company but the difficulty level says 5 out of 6
If you go to Hanayama site, you will find it is level 6 there. www.hanayamatoys.co.jp/product/category/puzzle/huzzle.html Probably somebody made a mistake, while printing boxes. This puzzle can't be level 5, it is the most difficult Hanayama puzzle.
very hard
it was given to me when I was little and I mixed it up all over the place, now I can't do it or undo it, I don't understand it at all 😭😭
Ohhh, you are doomed. This is one of the hardest Hanayama puzzles. 😁
Hi my hanyama tail got stuck in AY head idk how, any one who can maybe help me?
it will be very difficult to help you without seen your puzzle since it is one of the most difficult Hanayama puzzles.
Puzzle guy i did it somehow, i took it apart and when i wanted to put it back together it got stuck nvm it s ok now thanks anyway
Make a photo of your puzzle and show me. Maybe i will be able to help.
Puzzle guy no no it s ok now i solved it
That is even better than my help 👍
I literally put this video in 0.25x speed and I still can't do it
Totally understand you. This puzzle is extremely difficult.
Go to 3:39 for solve.
It looks like a harder ripple
Un the last movement that snot i cant get It throgh
Watch my video and try again. Probably you are doing something wrong.
I hace tried again but still cant get that knot pasa. Just información case os theknot pf a.Y that has to pass through hanayama little loop?
Assemble your puzzle to it's original state and start again following all the steps in video. Do exactly as i do on video.
Ok thank you i got it
Bought this puzzle at a local bookstore a while back, and it says it is 5 out of 6 difficulty on the box. Not sure why I bought one so difficult, as I do not do puzzles as a hobby or anything of that sort. I wanted a challenge I guess, plus it was shiny. :)I was able to get it apart, but had no luck putting it back together. It sat in three pieces on my desk at work for a year or so, and several others tried but also failed.I watched this video, going slow, and I somehow messed it up (I think). I *think* I was able to successfully get the AY into the Hanayama (around 6:30 in the video). But then the video says to put the tail of AY into the small loop of Hanayama, and says it is easy. But this is where I fail. Vortex is just always in my way. I'm wondering if I messed up when putting the AY into the Hanayama.Right now I'd be satisfied if I could just get everything apart and start over, but not having much luck with that. I'm wondering if boltcutters might not be the way to go here.
I jammed it while trying to put it back together
take apart in 1 hour， but it's so difficult to assemble
Actual solve starts at 3:34 you are welcome.
its level 10 now on puzzle master
Puzzle Master and Hanayama have different difficulty scales. Hanayama 1-6 PuzzleMaster 5-10 Hanayama's level 1 is equal to Puzzlemaster's level 6. Hanayama's level 6 is equal to Puzzlemaster's level 10.
heych vous m "as vais foutut, dans la merde avec votre truc quand meme , MDR
Solve it in minutes for me the best is the cast chain
I got it apart easy enough, but it just doesnt want to go back tofether
I've slowed your video down and i still can't do it
Solved it with no walkthrough in 7 minutes
😲 is it possible at all?
Puzzle guy yep
Haven’t put it back together and it was my 7th hanayama but I am only 11 years old
Watch kzhead.info/sun/nJWHosd_f1-jn3k/bejne.html for proof o solved it but sadly I didn’t record the solving process
Easy
😆 great joke.
Mine literally wont even do the first step 😂
This puzzle destroy my brain
To easy
Too smart
Hi Siri we are going to solve this puzzle Step one okyougottodothisthingandthingthingandthenthisandthat I hope this video helps bye
Don’t waste describes the item, just solve it asap
Echo
Breh mine got stuck on the first move 😂😂😂
Mine got stuck :/
It happens sometimes. :(
this puzzle to me makes absolutely no sense. It's like trying to explain who made the elder scrolls, which would take a month to explain why that very question doesn't even make sense.
AIE AIE COMMENT FAIRE ???????????
I thought this was a level 5?
@@samanthamatthews781 Odd my package had showed 5. And the site
@@samanthamatthews781 Well no matter. I might have gotten it from a different seller or something perhaps.
This took you two days? My dad gave it to me and I clicked on this video to he,p me solve it.. while it was still in the box I managed to do it.. my first try too! XD
You move too fast, i cant see what youre doing
You can slow down the video using the setting button at the bottom right corner of the video, or pause video until you do the move.
This video was more helpful kzhead.info/sun/g5ywmdqvnnWHa68/bejne.html
Glad you found the way how to solve it. Really difficult puzzle.
@@Puzzleguy thanks, i had to use three different videos
If you like difficult puzzles, you have to try new Hanayama puzzle, Hourglass kzhead.info/sun/mLSeZZZ9jICAnp8/bejne.html
Jk lol
Not a fan of puzzles that are just a long series of arbitrary steps with no trick, pattern, or system to the solution.
This puzzle is not so difficult for me and carson
I DIDNT UNDERSTAND A FUCKING WORD HE WAS SAYING WHEN HE WAS DISASSEMBLING IT
In 20 minutes
It is easy
Great joke. Still laughing 😄
so. ezzy
"ezzy" in Korean means "extremely hard puzzle"? 😀
I solved it in 40 minutes
That is impressive.
impossible a refaire c de la merde
You might as well just fiddle with your finger while talking about it. Completely unusable to help solve the thing
im 12 and finished it in 5 min
I'm 12 too, but I can't it😂
Terrible instructions
Lando-Mcfly I took it apart and put it back together without any difficulty. They are very good instructions. Maybe this puzzle isn’t for you.
Can you instead say the names of the pieces instead of “this piece” ugh
