Description: Adds an additional level of complexity to Rubik's cubes by adding custom art and other images.
Kristin's Customized Cubes Back in the early 80's I was big time into the Rubik's cube. Not only was I , but I was also into making custom cubes by pealing off the boring stickers that come with the cube and making interesting new ones to stick on in their place. You can't quite see it in the picture, but this rainbow cube (I was big time into rainbows at the time too) has a background made from paper that says KRIS WUNDERLICH all over it... another project I was into at the time from a graphic arts class in high school. Anyway, the stickers were made by putting clear contact paper on top and double sided tape on the back, and cutting them into sticker sized shapes by hand with a pair of scissors. It was a huge amount of work, but made for some awesome custom cubes... and 17 years later the stickers are still stuck solid onto the cube... thanks 3M for the excellent double sided tape. I was working for Ideal Toys at the time... demonstrating Rubik's cubes in shopping malls on weekends for $20 an hour... not a bad gig for a 16 year old kid... and when they started talking about making a 4x4 cube I got really excited about it.
