Click a thumbnail to see its larger version and description.
A tetrahedral 3x3x3 "axised" within its solid.

This puzzle is part of a series of five. All five puzzles are 3x3x3s with the shape of a platonic solid. Compared with the already existing 3x3x3s of the respective shape these puzzles are "axised". That means their axis system is rotated within the solid.
The cube-version of this series is the wellknown "Axis Cube". The octahedron version has been built under the name "Octahedron Axis".
All three new members were completely 3D printed including the mechanism. No extensions were used. A 57 mm-sized cube can be placed exactly inside each shape.
Edge length: 240 mm
Weight: 413 grams
