This is my custom-casted and designed 1x2x7 puzzle. It is non-proportional for extra sturdiness, and looks pretty high quality to me. Ebay link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0316958517

The starting bid is 99c, so happy bidding!

I would like to design a V2 of this puzzle, it was very fun to make, a second copy should be released soon and possibly go for a buy it now price!

Plastic could still be a bit soft in that video causing the squeaking due to increased friction

I remember the night it was being designed. We based it off the same idea of the cubic 3x3x5 where the outer layers are split into 3. Squeak is annoying, but the puzzle itself looks awesome!

Hmmm it does indeed have a horrible sqeaking noise. Could silicone solve that problem?

Very nice build btw, I love how its unproportional the way it looks is beautiful :)
