No copyright violations as long as you don't try to sell it. Merge cube actually has a printable paper version of their cube for free on their website.
Am I correct that the only limiting factor of size is how big the size of the copies are? For example if I wanted to double the size of your cube I would make each size two A4's? I realize I would have to split each side when copying? Great video I can see many educational aspects. Also in theory is there any way to project movies even if just in 2D???
Hi Stephen. Thanks for watching! You are correct, indeed. The only limit is the size of the copies made. At my school, we've got an industrial sized banner printer, so I've been considering making a massive, MASSIVE cube. ...But, that'd be a big undertaking. Haha! I'm picturing some really cool suspended art installation in the courtyard. Anyway, I'm excited to see your SUPER GIANT Merge Cube when it's finished! Let me know how it goes! As far as projecting movies, I don't know of any way to do it with full length features, but there are a couple apps that project 2D video files in augmented reality that I like to use. Check out Roar (costs money, but really cool tech), and HP Reveal (Free, but can be difficult to learn). Let me know if you want any more info! -Gabe

I LOVE this and plan to make one for my library this summer. Did you use a color or black and white copier? Does it matter? Wondering if the silver is important for tablets and phones to read the cube.
Liz Ralston thanks! :) :) :) I used a black and white copier. The silver doesn't matter when trying to pickup the image. I wondered the same thing at first. Thanks for watching, and let me know when you end up making one!!!
Justine Driver I custom made it. I had to carefully photocopy each face of the MERGE Cube, then blow them up. Thanks for watching! Are you gonna make one!? :) Let me know if you have any other questions!
Hello! The original version of the Merge Cube is 7cm x 7cm x 7cm (printable template for papercraft found here: ww.gabehaydu.com). The Giant Merge Cube that I made was approximately 40cm x 40cm x 40cm. Are you going to make one!? Let me know how it goes or if you need any help or ideas. I'd love to know! :)
Michael Fricano II I used A4 sized paper, but really you could use any size. I cut the cardboard to fit the size of the photocopies I made. Thanks for watching! Let me know if you have any other questions or if you end up making one! :)
Downloadable template can be found on the resources page of my website: www.gabehaydu.com

I love this, but do you know if this violates copyright?

How can you record?
Que ótimo! Eu estava procurando um vídeo sobre como fazer em escala maior e esse vídeo veio na hora certa, obrigada! 😊
This is brilliant. I want to try making this too, I can't see well & a giant merge cube would be so awesome and easier to see things.

Mr. Haydu my first time watching this made me feel like playing m.r body on it
before I saw this I got three more merge cubes but instead I wanted to make a GIANT MERGE CUBE
Where did you get the template from to photocopy/enlarge onto the card please? This looks fantastic!
Justine Driver I custom made it. I had to carefully photocopy each face of the MERGE Cube, then blow them up. Thanks for watching! Are you gonna make one!? :) Let me know if you have any other questions!

Awesome!!!
Thanks, Kim!
What size paper and box did you work with in this video?
