In this project, we had to create a puzzle cube that consisted of five pieces. Each piece had to be no smaller than three 1 inch cubes ; and no larger than 6 cubes. All together, it had to create a 3 x 3 x 3 cube.  We were only required to create one puzzle, but I did two.

First, we were required to sketch ten different possibilities for the puzzle pieces.

Next, we selected 5 pieces to use for our cube and sketched them. We were only required to use two of the ten original sketches.

Cube #2

After the sketching, we sketched the cube pieces in Inventor, and show steps for assembly.

Lastly, we built working prototypes of the cubes.
