Why Rubiks?

Until my current deployment to Afghanistan, I'd only ever tried to get one side of the cube, as quickly as I could, and only once did I get even two sides at the same time. I had a breakthrough to the next step while I was out here, and there was someone willing to show me the remaining steps to solve the 3x3x3 cube. Once I got the hang of that one, I moved up to a 5x5x5, and learned a couple of new tricks for the larger cubes. I taught myself the 7x7x7, and then started making designs to give a bit of a challenge. Here, for those who wish to take the time to view, are the results. Enjoy! :)

#1

I'd call this one "The Original" but I already used that for the first design I made with a 7x7x7 cube.  So I'll call this one "#1".  It's the first design I made on any cube, long before I ever was able to solve a 7x7x7 cube at all, much less make designs in one.  I thought I'd already posted pictures of this solve, but I guess I hadn't, so here you go.  I've tried some other designs on the small cube since, but it's only served to show me just how little flexibility there is in this cube.
