Cubic Dissection first released a wooden version of Slump Cube back in 2010 and Eric had this to say about it:
"This puzzle was inspired by the 3x3x3 dovetailed cube that Wayne produced a few years ago. With permission and a little advice I decided to look into reproducing the design. I quickly realized how many possibilities existed in the 3x3 format, and decided to start with a 2x2. I brought Ronald in because his burrtools kung fu is far superior to mine...lucky for me he was in a design slump, so he picked up my gauntlet and ran with it. The result is this optimized level three beauty. The four pairs of identical pieces come together in a somewhat unexpected way. While not terribly difficult, it's a fun puzzle to solve and manipulate, and it displays very well."
This new edition builds on that heritage and is made of precision-machined aluminum with a nice sandblasted finish. It had to go through a few iterations of prototyping and material tests before the sweet spot for tolerance and fit was found, resulting in pieces that slide so smoothly that you'll be hesitant to put this puzzle down and that will look great sitting on your desk, table, or shelf once you do.
Slump Cube ships in an assembled configuration.
Designed by: Wayne Daniel, Ronald Kint-Bruynseels, & Eric Fuller
