The goal of this puzzle is to make a cube with bevelled edges using all nine pieces.

The puzzle was designed by Juno back in 2019.
The puzzles were produced to go to an IPP but then Covid hit. Brian promptly forgot all about them.  He only discovered them in the shed under a dust sheet in early 2024; just in time to sign up for the IPP Exchange in Houston.

It was never made commercially but written about on the ZenPuzzler blog back then.  Do not click through to this blog site if you do not want to read or see any spoiler information:  https://www.zenpuzzler.com/2019/06/a-puzzle-with-no-name-yukaris-cube.html 
“Probably, most puzzle enthusiasts may think that this puzzle is easy. Well, that is partially right. This is not very difficult, but I say there is something a little tricky. If someone is not used to playing with a puzzle, he/she might struggle to find the solution. I am sorry, I cannot say what it is.”

The puzzle is made from Tasmanian Oak.

Size: 60mm x 60mm x 60mm. (assembled with bevelled corners)  Packaged: 60mm x 40mm x 100mm.
Packaged in a zip lock bag with a sticker to describe the goal and a printed solution.
