PSA: If you get stuck/trapped in the Sawmill
Reference picture: http://i.imgur.com/my4YuUf.png

(Take a look at the image above before reading)

What happens?

You have moved the ramp to position 6 by solving the puzzle on the panel so that the 6th yellow shape gets erased by the white symbol

This means you seem "trapped" on the platform with no seemable way to get past the metal bars, or get down from the platform.

Oh no...I'm trapped!

You may seem "trapped" or "stuck" but you aren't at all.

Think about how you moved the platform in the first place.

So what do I do?!

Again look at this reference image: http://i.imgur.com/my4YuUf.png

If you solve the puzzle panel so the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th yellow shape gets erased by the white symbol then you will be able to recover the platform. You can them move the platform to the last position and simply hop on.

Video of being "stuck" or "trapped"

In the video just ignore the fact that the metal bars are raised. I re-enact the scenario as if the metal bars are down and blocking your way.
