Nested Cube is a Hollow-Cube-style puzzle with a hollow spherical 2x2x2 turning inside a hollow 2x2x2. At two places, a corner of the inner 2x2x2 is connected to a corner of the outer 2x2x2. So some sides of the inner 2x2x2 can turn independently of the outer 2x2x2, but other not. Oskar would call this "inside-out bandaging".

The concept of inside-out bandaging was independently developed by Katsuhiko Okamoto as well. Okamoto built an octahedrally-modded cubic 3x3x3 inside his famous Void Cube. He connected three inner edges to three outer edges, while the other edges turn independently. The result is Okamoto's "Kepler Cube".
