Hi everyone, have the pleasure to present my first design of 2025, the Vitrail Cube!
 - Vitrail Cube
 - Top View
 - 1 Axis turn
 - 2 Axis turn
 - Cycle of 3 small group of pieces
 - Jumbling big group of pieces
 - Several jumbling turns
It's a cubic-shaped triakis octahedron with 24 axes of rotation, similar to the Trifurcation Cube, but with a deeper turning, which makes 2 new types of pieces appear.
It is also the missing link between the Trifurcation Cube and the Rosette, having a depth of turning between both puzzles.
As a peculiarity, I must say that the size of this cube is the largest among those I have designed, reaching 80mm on each side, although it is still smaller than its little brother, the Trifurcation. That's because of the small triangles you see around the centers, which are the only part that sticks out from the rotation axes that are hidden internally in the first layer, and so that it could be connected I had to increase the size of the puzzle.

I hope you like it

Edge length : 80 mm
Weight: 300 grams

The only downside I find is that the models you make are so good that they make me wonder if I should continue with the design, doing only botched jobs.
Please don't say things like that, what's really important in the end is the concept of the puzzle, not just the aesthetics, even if this is the first thing that catches the eye.
All new puzzles are welcome!
