Description
The five pieces of Truncated Octahedral are made of 14 cubic blocks with their eight corners sawn off just enough to create regular hexagonal faces and thus space-filling solids. Joined together different ways, they pack snugly into a square-bottomed box. The 12 page booklet that came with this puzzle shows 18 other entertaining problems, such as constructing a square pyramid that fits snuggly onto the bottom of the inverted box.
