My printer doesn't need them and this leaves a nicer corner. * For the 7A+1B puzzle, print 7 copies of the 'A' piece and 1 copy of the 'B' piece --- #### Coming Soon * Skyscraper * Cube Libre * Offroad cube * Big wafers * Small wafers * Jags and hooks * O’Beirne’s cube * Simitler New puzzle cubes will be added periodically here so feel free to watch this thing. Any more? *I welcome suggestions for additional cube puzzles in the comments!* --- #### Acknowledgments * Designed using [Chamfered primitives](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1305888) Reference material: * [Abraxis](http://www.hutter1.net/puzzles/plastic.htm) * [Bedlam](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedlam_cube) * [Big Wafers](https://diypuzzles.wordpress.com/2015/01/30/big-wafers/) * [Coffin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diabolical_cube) * [Half Cubes](https://diypuzzles.wordpress.com/2015/03/20/half-cubes/) * [Offroad Cube](https://diypuzzles.wordpress.com/2015/01/13/offroad-cube/) * [Small Wafers[(https://diypuzzles.wordpress.com/2015/01/30/small-wafers/) * [Soma Plus](https://www.fam-bundgaard.dk/SOMA/NOTATION.HTM) This collection was inspired by many other cube puzzles here on Thingiverse including: * [Pseudo Tricubes](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2152640) * [Coffin's Half Hour Cube](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:23685) * [Cube Libre](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:21042) * [Cube Puzzle Quartet](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1565383)
