Second aircraft in Cube 21 flight diverting into RAF Lakenheath. A flight of six was returning from Poland to Alaska after a deployment when their tankers failed to launch. The 3rd Wing marked on the tail is the operating unit at Elmendorf AFB.
Paper: 7 cm
Modules: 6
Assembly: grey one is glued
Model: Tomoko Fuse
Book: Unit Origami Essence p. 58-59 and p.60
Fuses Book contains three variants with different width of the strip. I haven't folded the one with the smallest strip yet.
The grey cube may be made by two different modules, I used the ones on p. 60. Since the modules fell apart at the beginning, I used glue for some modules. As often with cubes, it's stable in the end, so probably only a matter of patience (and perhaps cloth pins or thelike) to arrive at a glueless model.
Cube made from my new unit, Woven Slit Module (WSM).
This model uses 24 units made from 2:1 paper. Connection method is such that a hole is created in the middle of each face. Slits and unit connections are on the inside of the cube, in contrast to this model. This gives the model its woven appearance.
For a similar effect achieved with only a single unit for each face, see my Square Weave Cube.
Very strange cube house in an older neighborhood here in Los Angeles. It’s a little darker than usual here because it had just been raining

The Cube has 6 different colourful mosaics on its sides and combines a lot of the things that I love: Lego (obviously), geometric shapes, colours, mosaics and patterns and finally some logic and maths.

It was a very fun and satisfying build and it makes me so happy just looking at it.

From rests of other projects - a nice cube with a nice symmetry of the units. No glue.
Edit: Replace photo by a better one.

A Rubik's cube with a continuous longline pattern on the outside. A real challenge for jaded cube solvers, impossible to solve for normal humans, I'm afraid.

It took me a while to understand the diagrams, sometimes not being able to grasp anything from japanese descriptions doesn't make it easier. When I had understood that I basically had to sink the corners of a windmill base it was fun to fold and assemble.
Assembly reminds me of Meenakshi Mukerjis cube from 24 pieces from Origami Inspirations in the sense of having two flaps on any edge. But these are only 6 face modules.
Glued it for tidiness, absolutely stable without.

Cube Houses built in Rotterdam, designed by architect Piet Blom.
This model only requires 44 rods and 21 balls. Each cube vertex is made up by two balls: the outer holds the cube edges, the inner holds its diagonals. The balls remain strongly attached each other because of magnetic fields: the result is a very rigid and stable model!
A striking image of the Cube Houses in Rotterdam, designed by Piet Blom. These unique structures are known for their innovative and tilted design.
