Six Cubes (Posted on 2004-08-08) Difficulty: 4 of 5
Take six identical cubes and place them on the table in such a way that each cube touches each of the other five cubes with some part of its side (touching only along edges or at corners doesn't count).

The solution to this problem relies on stacking two three-cube answers on top of one another. Arrange three cubes in a plane such that they all touch one another, then make a copy of this orientation with the other three cubes. Now lift one 3-set and place on top of the other 3-set and rotate as required to produce the desired orientation.
