Blind Rubik's Cube 2


I decided after getting slagged for my incredibly girly last cube to do something a bit less pink. So I went to the craft shop. Where I did not look in anyway out of place amongst all the girls buying glitter and sparkles.

The materials I had to choose from were clockwise from top left
Tire Rubber, paper, foam, felt,velcro hooks, velcro, canvas, ribbon and mesh. I also got black sandpaper later.



I removed the stickers. I then washed off the residual stickiness with glue. I sandpapered 5 of the faces. After some thought I went for foam, velcro hooks, canvas, sandpaper, mesh and clear.

  3. That's totally awesome - and if you're aiming for anti-girliness, making something for the blind based entirely on sandpapering their fingers is bang on.

    Also bang on for: being a bastard, being a total bastard, and the "Makes Crippled Kids Cry" award.

    To dally with seriousness though: great project!
