  Smallest cube ever!?
 
As per this challenge way back 3 years ago ( (URL) ), I present the 2x2x2 cube. No gap this time from the technic half pin. It doesn't fit quite tight but usually will not fall apart when picked up either. This is inspired by (URL) . (2 URLs) (18 years ago, 22-Feb-07, to lugnet.build.schleim, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)
