The small version of the Rubik Cube



Hope you all like it

Good work! I think that’s as small as it can go (with 3x3x3 studs the 2:5 ratio doesn’t hold). Great minds think alike - good to see some careful use of paper - my cube would never have existed with out it!

I was curious to see that the cube starts to “explode” when being tipped over. I’m guessing this is a result of the corner pieces not “locking” with their neigbouring pieces. Note sure how it could be done - but I’m thinking!

Well done on miniturising again

Martin

P.S. thanks for the comments on your site
