PackTIC (or PackTIC #1 since I have several others now...) is a rotational packing interlocking cube type puzzle. It will require several rotations to solve! I would rate the assembly of this puzzle as medium difficulty and the disassembly of this puzzle as easy but enjoyable. This is a Turning Interlocking Cube puzzle which I designed with the aid of a computer program I wrote. The name of the puzzle is printed into one of the faces of the pieces.
It requires no supports and has snap together joints to create the more complex pieces. The joints should lock tightly and permanently. Sometimes a small clamp can aid in getting the pieces to snap together if they are a little too snug, or a gel based super glue can be used to take up any looseness of the joint. My current settings with these STL files requires a small clamp to push the snap joint together, and the joint is permanent.
