We had that problem a few times when we were testing it, so I'm gonna crack it open to adjust it again. It's kind of a scorpion. How does it know where to put the magnet? It doesn't, that's the thing. We had to calculate it correctly. It was really hard. It's a triangle is what it is. Let's just hope this works. Your eyeball looks pretty good when you set it up. That's pretty good. It took about, I don't know, how many days to get involved? 3 days. Yeah, it took very long. Really? Yep. Why is it starting? What if I can't turn it off? Oh no! Is this dead reckoning? Um, yes. I hope we didn't go too far. Oh, sweet! Let's get that. Sweet! Yes! Yes, my turn! Mission accomplished!
