Any Skewb Diamond solution thus requires a few additions in order to solve the Skewb Ultimate. Commercial Name: Pyraminx Crystal Geometric shape: Dodecahedron Piece configuration: 3x3x3
The Skewb (/ ˈ s k juː b /) is a combination puzzle and a mechanical puzzle similar to the Rubik's Cube. It was invented by Tony Durham and marketed by Uwe Mèffert .

A common issue while solving this cube is having the entire puzzle complete ...
