Master Skewb (Shim's version)

Hi!

I wanted to have a Master Skewb so I made myself one.
It is very slightly pillowed and has the same size as a simple Skewb.

Не игрушка, а призведение искуства.
Насчет молодчины - целиком согласен!!!

I like it.

I like the Master Skewb but I prefer it non-pillowed. I think that a slight pillowing looks quite unusual, but I still like it.

I would prefer it if the pieces weren't completely hollowed out like that (I would prefer if it was hollowed but closed).

Beautiful. And the fact that it's somewhat less pillowed is awesome! Nice turning as well. Simply amazing.

Hollowing the most frequent pieces let me about 10% volume off. I'll make them all closed for the Shapeways version

You should ask okamoto and drewseph before selling this on shapeways.

Why should he have to do this? Its an obvious puzzle to build.

Does this puzzle still have a rightful owner? Five years since 2003 have passed and Okamoto didn't ask about prolongation as he doesn't produce it. If I understand the forum rules right, selling this puzzle is open since 2008, isn't it?

IDK, drew seemed upset that there was no asking going on.

There has been an Ebay auction for a Master Skewb a few days ago http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie ... K:MEWAX:IT
(ended August 15th). Neither Okamoto nor Drewseph have been referenced. Nobody made a comment about it, as far as I am aware.
I do not recollect the member name who made this auction, though.

Awesome! I love the Master Skewb, It looks so beautiful, and if I may, how much to print?
