Jing's Pyraminx
thingiverse
This puzzle is inspired by the Rubik's cube and can be bought from Meffert's. However, I designed a smaller version with unique mechanics. The challenge lies in finding the right screw size, or alternatively, using pins that can be glued in place. Split parts allow for printing without support material, requiring only gluing later. Instructions are needed to orient pieces, and an edit clarifies instructions further. If you attempt making this puzzle, I apologize in advance if it's not flawless. Print all included parts first, as edge and corner parts are split into two pieces due to overhang issues. Glue these together before moving on to assembly. Edge pieces are interchangeable, while corner pieces should form a triangular-like prism. Find a screw that fits through the center pieces and secures in designated holes. Assemble by placing centers first, followed by edges between two centers, and corners between three edges - similar to a Rubik's cube. Adding color would make it more fun.
