Jumble Prism

Buy at http://www.shapeways.com/model/31866/jumble_prism.html Copyright (c) Bram Cohen & Oskar van Deventer. JumblePrism is an idea by Bram Cohen. It is a twisty puzzle like Rubik's Cube, but using the geometry of a triangular prism. Because of this odd geometry, the pieces get very "jumbled", as Bram calls it.

For the experts:
-The puzzle is "jumbled" as the six faces turn by non-integer fractions of 360 degrees.
-The puzzle is "bandaged" as some pieces can mathematically be considered a composition of more elementary pieces.

For the non-experts:
-This is a very difficult and highly confusing puzzle.

For how much would you sell the original design prototype (the one all the way to left) ?

[OskarPuzzle]

@CeeDelTV Please contact me on that privately. E.g. by leaving your email address in a private message.

so it's just a basic skewb?

[OskarPuzzle]

@DaMusicFreak101 No, this one is not even related to the Skewb

[emmanuelfrance06]

Why it's so expensive?...original puzzle!

[OskarPuzzle]

@emmanuelfrance06 Thanks. The cost is from 3D printing, where you pay per volume.

@DaMusicFreak101 a skewb has 4 centers, this puzzle has 6

OH crap i hadn"t seen this and just finished the design! :P could i make a dino triangular Prism (looks like the 1st one)

[Adman234videos]

It's crazy how many different 6-axis puzzles have been made, yet with totally different symmetry. It was cool to see your first ever prototype Oskar, we all gotta learn some way!

That is very very clever.
