This video is really great. It is one of the only livestreams I ever watched entirely. And it is a video that I like to get back to every time I feel like learning a new mechanism again. You explained everything really well. I also like to rewatch you answering my comments because 9 months later I did exactly the opposite of what you suggested. I bought my self a FDM-printer and started this channel. Still, I have to say that I'm happy with that purchase. Through a salery I was agble to get half of the investment back so that I theoretically payed ony around 200€ for the machine and all the puzzles I've created so far. Of course it can't offer the quality you got on your SLS prints but for somebody who doesn't have the 5000€ it is quite a good toy to play around with. Especially as you can test things out and improve your designs without having to wait a long time or pay a fortune. And I've been able to print some better puzzles than the 1x2x3 I was talking of. I was actually surprised of how well FDM works as I hadn't expect it to be useful for puzzles. Now, I'll try to use your video to learn a bit more about shell mechanisms and finally test the limits of that printer. Btw, did you drop your plan of buying an SLS-printer? It would have been useful for your recent 33x33x33 project. Dario

52:40 details of the three layer design. starminx edges (6) fused with inner pyraminx crystal edges (6). pyraminx crystal corners (6) fused with inner megaminx corners (6). The 'floating' megaminx corners are held in by the megaminx centres. The pyraminx crystal edges held in by the pyraminx crystal/megaminx corners. The starminx star triangles (corners?) held in by the starminx/pc edges (as is the starminx centre presumably)

Great stream, Greg! I definitely learned some new things watching this. It was very cool to see how a much more experienced designer works. I can't wait to see this puzzle finished!

About 43 minutes in, you mention that you can make curvy cuts. Can you please show, how to do that on a 3x3? :)

Hey Greg! Please, can you do a tutorial on your trihedron cube? The one based on the void mechanism but with only 3 sides.

I've been looking to start designing puzzles for myself but I find the concept of shells confusing - how is it that you get a sense for where to place each layer's cuts relative to each other?

From someone who has no experience in puzzle designing but would love to start, would you consider showing us a full design tutorial of a 3x3 and a 5x5. I followed the 3x3 mechanism in this video but I don't know where to go from there. I know the 5x5 is just an extended 3x3 with the added 5x5 parts but I don't know how to construct them. I would really appreciate if you could as I can't find anything similar online.

So how is it assembled and/or can we have an assembly video?. Will the outer pieces squeeze onto the complete inner, or would you have to leave one or more megaminx center loose till the end (then would need a hole in the starminx center to tighten the screw).

In the next stream could you possibly show us the complete outside of the 33x33, I'd like to see what that many cubies look like :D

Just a thing: you should name this puzzle "Crazy Starminx", the puzzles that have a circle in the faces are named "crazy". I not speak english very good, but I can understand a 60% of this video, and is amazing see how you design a new and original puzzle. I love it. P.S.: Can you activate the subs?
@GregMakesThings
@GregMakesThings 7 жыл бұрын
Actually, the original name for puzzles with a circle that doesn't turn is "circle xxxxx". Mf8 named their series "crazy xxxxx" because some faces turn and some don't but they are not even close to being the inventors of the concept :) So Circle Starminx is will be ! As for the subs, normally you can use automatic subtitles, and you can also translate them in real time, but I don't know if KZbin does that for live broadcasts :/

Obviously you've done this enough that you just know, but how would one calculate how many copies of each piece, or figure out which ones are unique? Follow up video/s? Maybe talking about each process in a bit more detail? (Including a bit more about how to use the software?)

Oh, I guess I should have kept watching a bit. The question about the unique pieces probably still stands tho...

I would love to own a Cross Megaminx (Like a Cross Cube). The Cross Cube is one, if not the, favourite puzzle in my collection. Looks mental but the solve is (somewhat) simple. Hope the same is true for the CrossMinx :D
