“Since we began selling the cube we have constantly asked ourselves, 'What is the right size?', and 'Would anyone buy a bigger cube?' Only recently has anyone asked us, or have we asked ourselves, 'What is the biggest cube we can make?' We have an answer that creates a bit of a problem. The answer is 14" and 1,784 lbs (809 kg). The problem is, what do with it if we make it. Shipping and receiving can be a problem,” the company wrote in a blog post.

To get around the issues inherent in creating such a massively heavy object for sale, Midwest Tungsten has put some restrictions on the sale of the cube, which will be kept at the company’s HQ:

“One visit to see/photograph/touch the cube per calendar year will be allowed and scheduled with a Midwest Tungsten Service representative,” the NFT listing reads. “Subsequent owners of the NFT cannot visit the cube in a year in which the cube has already been visited. The cube will not be available to view until 10 weeks after the first sale.”

Touch Cube - Description

Description

Touch cube investigates our ability to interpret information through only our sense of touch. It does this by eliminating any chance of using memory to know the correct location; with consistent texture on all sides, a range of possibilities for orientation, different locations for the correct block on each face and by limiting you to only the sense of touch. The only sensory feedback is touch based with vibration upon finding and pressing the correct square to let you know you were right. It gives people insight into the importance of our senses and makes them appreciate them more when they can’t use them. It also allows people to focus on, develop and appreciate their sense of touch. Touch cube is skill based and will be solved more easily by people with a refined sense of touch.  

Instructions

Pick up the cube and then close your eyes. Now spin the cube around to a random face. Using only your sense of touch, scan one of the faces feeling for the unique Lego block with four protruding circles. When you think you have found it press down, if you are right the cube will vibrate. Without looking, try doing another face of the cube and seeing how fast you can find the correct square.
