Markus Split

Description

Markus Split is a four-piece cube puzzle. The puzzle is a 2x2x2 cube, where diagonally opposite cubies are connected. The puzzle-design challenge was to find a design with this property. This is my solution to this design challenge. It is based on a design by Markus Goetz, where each of his pieces are again split into two identical pieces. So the puzzle has four identical pieces.

The puzzle requires twenty-four 3x3-mm cylindrical magnets to keep the puzzle together in its solved state.
