    @jon-nyc Is the video sped up? The writing says "30 seconds" but the video is only 15 seconds.

    Even so, still impressive!!!!!

          Presumably it's Scotch whisky.

                        The average temperature of Venus's atmosphere at the surface is around 462 degrees Celsius (864 degrees Fahrenheit), making it the hottest planet in our solar system due to a strong greenhouse effect caused by its thick carbon dioxide atmosphere; this temperature remains relatively consistent day and night.

                            The two bottom ones don't do anything.

                              Yeah they do but it took me a minute. Those flat metal pieces go through a slot in the bottom horizontal bar. If you slide either of them out you can slide the bar out. Both locks need to be secured to prevent sliding them out.

                                ... and you can spin the shaft to slide the bar out.

                                  So it would seem, but you can't slide the bar out from the bottom. The hasp is in the way. So again, the bottom two don't do anything.
