Hypercube (Tesseract)

A 6 cm cube with a smaller cube inside, joined at the corners: the shadow of a four-dimensional cube in our three dimensions, just as a drawing of a cube is its shadow on paper.

1. Print without supports; long edges may sag a little.
2. Build the pattern: a point, a line, a square, a cube. Count vertices and edges each time (1, 2, 4, 8…).
3. Predict the tesseract's vertices (16) and edges (32), then count them on the model.
