Review: An aesthetic indulgence. - So for complicated reasons I am familiar with tungsten. So I knew what I was buying. When I saw the smaller cubes I began purchasing them. The 1", the 2" and now the 3". Everyone has their own aesthetic but if you are intrigued by simple demonstrations of the extreme then you will be gratified when you own any of these cubes. Just looking at them and remembering the last time you picked them up is pleasing. They actually make a 4" cube which is quite expensive but I may actually purchase it. If you can part with the cash I recommend the biggest cube you can afford.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Tungsten is listed at less than 0.7 lb/cu in.  That makes a 9 cu-in cube come in at less than 6.3 lbs.  How can this cube weigh 17.6 lbs?**
A: A cube 3 inches on a side has a volume of 27 cubic inches (3 in high x 3 in wide x 3 in deep), not 9 cubic inches. 18 g/cm^3 x 16.4 cm^3/in^3 x 27 in^3 = 7.97 kg or 17.5 lb.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its an 18.5 lb 3" cube.
*by L***M on July 30, 2018*

Its an 18.5 lb 3" cube. Very nicely done. The stand is nice, but feels like it could be easily crushed by the cube, if you are not careful. I understand the aesthetics. I like the minimalist look. It is perfectly safe in an adult environment. But we have cats. Although it is unlikely they will push it off the stand, if they did the consequences could be serious. It would be great if two stands were provided. An additional larger stand would be more stable for display so the could not be rotated out of the stand as easily.
