I'm thinking that I should try Megaminx first. I havn't got around to buying/trying one of those yet.

 

[Ethan Rosen]

O lol
yea you can't really do this unless you can solve a megaminx
the Url for the megaminx simulator is

[Daniel Wu]

Cool. Thanks.

Would it be possible to build a phisical version of one of these?

well of course it's possible, it'd just be extraordinarily obnoxious.

I think the middle edges would fall out.

 

[deco122392]

Why? They seem stable to me.(Based on what I see)

It's possible to build a physical version of anything
I obviously can't though. I can't even imagine what the structure of this would look like.

Anything? how about a non pillowed 7x7?

I can. I'm thinking of something similar to a 5x5 with tredges and such for the edges and center.... Blah blah blah... I'm sure oyu understand what i mean.

 

[ConnorCuber]

Yes, there's already one made.

Hasnt this already been done?
If I can remember rite, it just wasn't suitable for speed solving.


Someone want to find the link for me please?

Oh, I thought I read on the wiki that it was impossible. Nevermind!

Umm no I don't. If you mean what I can only assume that you might mean, keep in mind that this puzzle is not a gigaminx (which has of course, been done.) This puzzle is incredibly similar to a gigaminx, however the way it slices makes it slightly different.

 

[trying-to-speedcube...]

Hmm... That's cool

I think the centers shouldn't be too hard, same as gigaminx, but the edge pairing... That might get a little tricky... I'll try when I get back from school.

 

[qqwref]

Not to steal your thunder Ethan, but I didn't feel like making a new topic, so here's a Gigaminx video

Trust me, this looks WAY better in high quality. Try it.

Yea the centers are exactly the same as on a gigaminx, and the edges are really similar as well. I can't really explain this in text, but the way that the puzzle slices sort of requires you to solve the edges in the opposite way that you would on a gigaminx.
