About the Design
Fascinated by paleontology? Attracted to abstract art? "Rubix-O-Saurus" is your kind of dinosaur. The viewer stands transfixed, mentally reconstructing a Tyrannosaurus rex from the pieces.

The frame is constructed of extruded aluminum tubing (1 inch sq.) and MIG-welded. The cover panels are 3/8" clear Lexan® fastened with 3/8"x1" stainless steel screws and sealed with a latex caulking. Overall size is 96Sold!"x32" (each cube being 32 inches square). There are 3/8" aluminum angle brackets welded to the base for mounting. This Rubik’s Cube puzzle of a dinosaur will provide years of fascination.
