Video: Think You Can Solve Rubik’s Cube? Try 3D Printed X-Cube
Dane Christianson, a student at the Illinois Institute of Technology, used CAD and 3D printing to create X-Cube, a version of Rubik’s Cube for serious puzzle experts. Dane comments on his creation.
I created this using CAD and 3D printing. It’s a Rubik’s type puzzle with fully functional additional layers on four of the faces of a typical Rubik’s Cube.
This project was completed through the Idea Shop at the Illinois Institute of Technology.
Watch the video below to see the mega-puzzle in motion.

Video: BBC Reports on the Growth of 3D Printing
From toys to cars – what will you make on a 3D printer? BBC reporter Dan Simmons looks into the amazing world of 3D printing.
Around 200 years ago the industrial revolution changed the way we create things. Today nearly everything we own is mass produced in factories but that could all be about to change again.
Just as consumer tech has helped many of us become photographers, DJs and even journalists – could it be about to remove the barriers to production itself.
In the video below, Simmons reports on MakerBot, Anarkik3D, the 3D Print Show, and more.
