The title should explain itself.
I know it is rather trivial, but after this

I was thinking how it's a puzzle since it's just a 1x1x2, then I realized the middle circle. :lol:

Anyways, I like it!

I LIKE THAT.

Wish I'd thought of that one.

EXCELLENT.

Does the center turn? If not, how do you scramble it?

Of course, yes. I believe it works same as Puck (because it made from Puck). :wink:

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Did you mention that it's shamefully easy to solve?

Nice creation, was it made by extending the Puck or cutting down the parts, and then bandaging? (like a bandaged Square-puck)

I'd bet it's a bandaged two layer square one. It's an easier mod then cutting down a puck.

Only if you buy a 2 layer super square-1. Making and bandaging a 2 layer super square-1 would be more difficult I think.

I never completely mastered my square-one, so this one looks pretty trick actually.

Hey Andreas,

really a cool one. Nice work. And still three puzzles to go..

And as I just had a look on SmaZ's Crazy 2x3x3 aside on my desk, I think the Crazy puzzle variations could also need a Crazy 1x3x3. What do you think?

What about a crazy Square-1?

I'm calling Puck mod on this one. The edges are markedly sharper (less beveling) that the Square One parts. Also, if you look very closely at the top photo, there is an extremely feint seam in one of the 60 degree pieces. I had to tilt my LCD monitor to see it clearly. As far as it's simplicity, I don't consider it a con at all. My fiance was overjoyed when she solved the (original) Floppy cube. I gave her a 25th anniversary metalized Pyraminx in 2007 and she can't even do that one. She loves to scramble my puzzles (only when I hand them to her), but she's not a solver like I am. And even I can't solve most puzzles higher than a Pyraminx, without using algorithms :scrambled:

Thank you for all the comment.
And it is indeed a bandaged, truncated and extended Puck.

Stop reading my mind! Okay. It is quite obvious. Anyway: I want to finish that other waste of Apoxie first...7and sticker the other dozen variants...

Sounds good. But I think, that would be SmaZ's job.

The UNSCRAMBLED puzzle in Oskar's shop is basically like this, but it's a bandaged 22-piece puck, which is an extremely difficult thing to solve.
