Hi Everyone,

I'm pleased to say that I have fully redesigned my Pentamid Puzzle for the Shapeways process, and it is now available for sale in my shop.

The Pentamid puzzle is based on the geometry of the pentagonal dipyramid. It turns on the five edges around the equator of the puzzle, as well as on the two polar vertices. Each vertex can turn in increments of 72 degrees, while the edges are limited to 180 degree turns. The Pentamid puzzle becomes scrambled fairly quickly with just a few turns. Here's the video.

Here are a few pictures of the new version:
Enjoy!

Awesome, mate!

Thank you. Now I can replace the images with white body.

Very nice looking puzzle, a great balance of piece sizes.

Beautiful the penta-cap can't turn?( I imagine to corner turn octahedron)

Correct, the five-sided tips cannot rotate independently.

Thanks for all the kind comments!
