While making Pizza, I noticed that there was a tiny bit of dough left. As I don't like to waste food, I decided to make an extra Pizza as amuse-gueule.

| Lunch Time! Mini Pizza made from a tiny piece of leftover dough. | |
This was a very improvised setup, because it was not planned at all. I should have put the cube with green-white-red on front. The improvised "plate" is a large coffee cup upside down. If the 10mm cube would be a regular size, the Pizza would be about 20cm in Diameter.

While trying to match cubes and open end wrenches, I realized that cubes can fit nicely in the 12-point box end of combination wrenches. But only stickerless cubes will give the funny look, so I started with a list of my stickerless cubes sorted by size, and gave it a try. The aim was to find four or five good matches, but when combining metric and imperial wrench sizes, the number of matches increases. After an initial search I realized that the set of five ~30mm to ~50mm gives an acceptable fit, I chose a regular size cube from the same manufacturer to get a set of six matches having the same colors. Four metric wrenches, two imperial ones. For two of the cubes it took some force to push them in, one was a bit loose, but still OK.

The materials used for the Japanese Cube are quite remarkable: The nubby tiles are made of silicone, not plastic. What looks like fur is really super soft and super fluffy. I just wonder how long it lasts.
