Click a thumbnail to see its larger version and description.
A Gear Pyraminx truncated into a shape resembling an archimedean solid.

This is a straightforward shape transformation. Tony Fisher truncated a mass produced Gear Pyraminx from Mefferts on its four tips.
The puzzle was named after its original puzzle and the Tetraminx, which is a Pyraminx with all four tips chopped of. The Tetraminx has the shape of a true truncated tetrahedron, an archimedean solid. However, Gear Tetraminx does not match the conditions this solid has to meet because it has different relative edge lengths.
Edge length: 30 mm (short edge)
Edge length: 42 mm (long edge)
Weight: 90 grams
