In this tutorial you'll learn how to make the origami SOMA Cube Puzzle step by step.
The SOMA Cube is a puzzle invented by Piet Hein in 1933. It has seven different pieces made from cube units that must be assembled into a 3x3x3 cube (and a variety of other shapes).
My origami version of this puzzle is a modular model and each cube is made from a square sheet of paper and connected without glue nor tape.
