No use of layer 6 whatsoever. Jesting aside, what do you think of this? A cheap way to save up keys or a possible Jack-Stuck factory?

You may want to play it in the editor BTW - I had to restart playing a few times until I reached the money, it is much faster in the editor

Another one of ToyBox's outrageously tricky puzzles. Wow... ToyBox is like just the right nickname for a puzzle maker! Hint?

Not a puzzle, really. I could give this hint: nothing is hidden at all. What you see is all that there is. That's why I allow you to play in the Editor: there's no secret to be given away. Jack only needs swift reflexes.

Now here comes the solution (even though it still remains difficult to carry out): SOLUTION->

Open the first door, then quickly jump onto the bottom part while it is still lowering, and from there jump over the other (closed) door.

<-SOLUTION

I will leave this here for another couple of hours and I will post the answer in proper colour in the evening (German time). Don't waste too much time with this room though.
