Click a thumbnail to see its larger version and description.
A Tangram Cube with additional stored cuts. A bandaged hexagonal prism in shape of a cube.

The original Tangram cube is a pentahedron in shape of a cube. Best of all was that is preserves its shape while scrambling.
The extreme Tangram Cube has the same cuts as the original ones but has some more. These cuts enable the top an bottom layers of the prism (here placed at two opposing corners) to be turned by 60� instead of 120�. The puzzle is not a hexagonal prism since the middle layer allows only three turns. Therefore it can be viewed as hexagonal prism with bandaged middle layers. Since this bandaging is symmetrical the puzzle behave doctrinaire. Unlike the predecessor the puzzle changes its shape.
