- What happens when you combine the familiar turning mechanism of a Megaminx with the striking geometry of an icosahedron? You get the Icosaminx, a puzzle that brings a different kind of visual challenge to the world of twisty puzzles.My version takes this concept in a colorful new direction. Instead of using traditional stickers, I wanted to create a stickerless Icosaminx using different colors of PLA filament. To make this possible, I 3D-printed each side in its own color and carefully joined the parts together with super glue. It took a different approach to construction, but the result gives the puzzle a clean, vibrant look without relying on stickers.I am not the original inventor of the Icosahedron Megaminx concept. My contribution is creating this stickerless version, bringing together colorful 3D printing and the distinctive geometry of the puzzle. For twisty puzzle collectors and 3D-printing enthusiasts, the Stickerless Icosaminx is an interesting example of how a familiar puzzle design can be reimagined through hands-on experimentation.
