This 3X3 puzzle cube features snap-in coloured face plates and hidden magnets that give it a smoother motion and snappy alignment. It can still be printed and assembled without the magnets, but the turning performance will be much sloppier. Uses 48, 4 mm diameter by 2 mm thick neodymium magnets. No glue required. I intend to release another cube in the future with some new ideas and higher end components so let me know if there are some improvements you'd like to see. Build NotesMake sure your build plate is clean and has good adhesion. This model has lots of small pieces with small contact areas. Brim or support shouldn't be needed if you have good plate adhesion. I recommend using the smooth high temp plate or cool tack plate and washing it with soap and hot water.Be very careful with magnet alignment. There are 48 opportunities to install one backwards. Edges should repel other edges and corners should repel other corners, but edges and corners should attract each other.The
