CUBE PUZZLE

This puzzle consists of eight multicoloured pieces which are to be fitted together to form a cube. When completed each face of the cube will have one of six different colours. The pieces can be made from cardboard using the patterns provided.

Thin card, approx 250 gsm

Glue ( quick drying preferred )

Print each of the patterns in the file Cube Puzzle.pdf on suitable card. ( Note that pieces F and G are in two parts which must be joined as indicated. The thick black lines indicate where additional cuts are needed. ) Cut out the patterns and crease along the horizontal & vertical fold lines. An old ball point pen in which all of its ink has been used up is ideal for this purpose. Each of the eight pieces A to H is illustrated in 3D views in the file, these should be followed to assemble each piece correctly.

The solution to the puzzle is given in the file. ( Note that there is only one solution which produces a cube having each face entirely the same colour. )
