A rhombic dodecahedron with four sets of cuts that combine the Coin TRD, the Coin Rhombic Dodecahedron and the Rhomdo Transformer.

The idea of this puzzle was to add Skewb cuts to the Coin Rhombic Dodecahedron (see the separate entry), so that the Coin Rhombic Dodecahedron and the Coin TRD (see the separate entry) are merged into one puzzle.
Although the face turns are the shallowest possible cuts, the special jumbling turns of this axis system explained by the Rhomdo Transformer already appear. It is quite interesting to see how those inscribed curvy rhombus centers and kite centers appear and disappear.
The mechanism of this puzzle is actually quite straightforward: just replacing the Coin Rhombic Dodecahedron core with a skewb ball, and then splitting the centers. However, it is not a very stable mechanism. Also the tolerance setting and printing quality didn't meet my expectations, which makes the puzzle a bit too loose.
