A new concept for the Gear Megaminx with one gear per face and one per edge.

Gear Megaminx is a Megaminx-based puzzle with dynamic gears and golden frames.
For the Megaminx, the gear systems that can be established are quite limited, especially if a concept like the Gear Cube is used. The designer avoided that problem by adding the centre gear in addition to the edge and turning-face gears.
Actually, it has the same gear system as the Gear Icosaminx, but a different gear ratio. The gear ratio is 6:10:20, and there's no 'extra tooth' due to the size of the gear.
Because of that, this puzzle somewhat differs in its dynamic characteristics from ordinary gear puzzles.
Simply, there is a 'Skip' in gear rotation. In particular, because of the gear size problem, 'Bump' and 'Collision' also exist in my puzzle.
