3D model description

Cube Puzzle: 5 x 5 x 5, Five-Piece Dissection
This is a classic five-piece dissection of a cube that is 5 x 5 x 5. I made an effort to highlight the unit cubes. Each unit cube is 12mm ^ 3.

While this stands as a puzzle on its own, it is also part of forthcoming dissection of a 6x6x6 cube into three cubes, each of which is 3^3, 4^3, and 5^3.

There are five pieces:

2^3 units
3x2x1 units
30 units
40 units
41 units
