    Just playing around with the idea but it seems problematic if the edge and corner pieces were to be attached onto it while also allowing them to rotate. Or do we need some different kind of connecting blocks that has new properties? :confused:

    I almost made it, but the mechanism exceeded the size limit of the level

    Wow! Can you share what you made, though? It would be interesting, even if it's incomplete.

    Haha I think I deleted it already. I used 3x3 free blocks and tried to hold them up with sliders at the bottom, and I use giant rings to rotate each face. I got the bottom level working but I realized I can't have enough space to put the rings for every face.

    In case you guys are interested in the mechanic behind the Rubik's Cube, it seems far away from mekorama. Even if a XYZ cross object could be created, many other stuffes seems impossible to manage (non sticked cubes in the edges ?) :

    At least you can try with paper :D

    @Pikcax DM A gravity block ! What a good idea for a new feature ! :)
