6 Piece Interlocking Cubic Puzzle

This puzzle is 4x4x4 interlocking cube and is assembled using six parts. This means that it can only be assembled in one sequence and will not fall apart if moved. Once put together, all pieces become immobile except for the last puzzle piece in the sequence, making it the first piece to be removed when taking the puzzle apart. Our model demonstrates a few key mathematical concepts, specifically, sequences, proof by exhaustion, problem solving, and different geometries. As mentioned before, interlocking cubes only have one sequence for assembly. Due to the way the pieces interlock, the assembly requires specific motions and maneuvering of pieces for the cube to come to formation. The creation of these types of puzzles is fairly popular in the puzzle world, however, creating a new type of puzzle is very difficult. Often, the creation of a new interlocking puzzles has to be done by exhaustion, and they are typically fairly large as smaller puzzles have already been created. The use of lo
