Cube in a Cube in a Cube?

[Rick Cicciarelli]

I have seen how to do the Cube-in-a-cube project...but how do you take it one step further to make the cube-in-a-cube-in-a-cube?

Always break the innermost cube free first, then work outwards...

Thanks...I was thinking about it some more after I posted this and that was going to be the approach I was going to try if no one suggested any other tricks I might be missing. We'll see how it turns out

My uncle made cube inside a cube inside a cube but he used aluminum, he's a brilliant metal worker. Once he finished he destroyed several jigs so it couldn't be reproduced. Pretty cool to play with.

This was the first time I heard about this, so I had to see what it was all about. I found this doing a GIS

I saw one that was 4 deep. Couldn't tell if it was a bigger square to start with or the guy was just very meticulous.

Not sure why he went to the trouble to destroy the jogs, as making them isn't a state secret. In fact, many students are given the assignment to make a double or triple cube as a project.



Roger, the best I've seen is 8 levels out of aluminum.... tiny little bugger in the middle.
