2x4x4 master floppy cuboid (v1 prototype.)

thingiverse

I am currently developing an upgraded version that does not rely on the mini 2x2 core puzzle, which may no longer be widely available. This new design adheres to my initial requirement of avoiding a potentially obsolete component. Two basic sticker templates have been added, initially in printable format; I will provide DXF files when feasible. Preliminary testing has shown that this puzzle prints fairly well, though it can sometimes appear slightly rough and may become loose during assembly. The top and bottom surfaces feature a subtle pillow effect to enhance the overall appearance. This puzzle is specifically designed as an extension for a mini 24mm 2x2 core and will not function properly without one in place. When handling the puzzle's components, exercise caution when sanding, as the core parts are relatively thin and can easily break if mishandled. However, once assembled, these components significantly strengthen the overall structure.
