3D model description

Seven Cube, Six Cube, Five Cube, Unit Cube: 7^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 5^3 +6^3
This is irresistible, especially when you have a 3D printer. A 7-cube is the sum of one 6-cube, one 5-cube, and two unit cubes, namely, 7^3 = 1^3 + 1^3 + 5^3 +6^3. The 6-cube is sliced into six 6-squares, which wrap around the 5-cube, only to leave two corners for the two unit cubes to fit in! Here you see the beautiful connections between arithmetic and geometric symmetries!

Each unit cube is 10 mm ^3. You need two unit cubes, a 5-cube, and six 6-squares to play around.

Please consider using โ€œvase modeโ€ when printing, to save time and filament.
