Description
Geometry:
The X-Box Cube is a corner turning puzzle with 8 axes of rotation. Solving-wise, the puzzle is the same as my previous Circle X Cube. The new style of contour cuts give this puzzle its' distinctive X-in-a-box pattern on the faces.
Other Items Needed:
Dye: If you want the puzzle to be black, you'll need to dye the pieces with a nylon dye such as RIT or Dylon.
Stickers: Please contact me if you want the sticker template. If you want professionally cut stickers, I recommend Oliver’s Stickers or Chewie's Custom Stickers.
Screws: Eight 12mm M3 pan head screws required, available in hardware stores or on the web.
Springs: 8 springs needed, available in web puzzle shops. I get mine from HK Now Store.
Degree of Difficulty:
Assembly: Easy to assemble.
Solving: Easy to solve.
Playability:
The X-Box Cube turns easily, and the mechanism is stable.
Have fun!
Pitcher Puzzles
Welcome! My goal when designing puzzles is to create geometries that are visually striking and have a complexity belied by their apparent simplicity. Many of my puzzles use odd axis systems, and exhibit strange properties such as jumbling and shape-shifting. Enjoy!
