An offset Skewb with the mechanism of the Gear Pyraminx
This puzzle was suggested to me by Werner Schachinger from Austria. It is a Skewb (a little offset) whose faces have circles that may turn with their 6 segments. If you turn it like a normal Skewb, 3 circles rotate by 5/6 turn and 3 others exchange their segments. Of course, hexagon and 2 other parts of the face area always have the same colour, being not connected physically.
The mechanism is based of gears. Interesting, The inventor did not have to design the gear layer - He just copied it from his Gear Pyraminx, because it works the same way that is needed for Rotoskewb. If you have a Gear Pyraminx, you can try to apply shift to 3 edge gears around one corner and you'll see how this puzzle works.
