 The old cube is not compatible with the current design and currently isn't shown anywhere in the repository.
 
+#### Other versions
+Have we tried other designs? Sure, we have. The cubes are nice to play with and nice for planning a setup but the design is mechanically over-determined. We tried to put the cube on [3-point connection](./CAD/ALTERNATIVE_DESIGN/UC2_with_3-holes-cubes) and use the [hexagonal building blocks](./CAD/ALTERNATIVE_DESIGN/UC2_with_Hexagonal_Block). Have a look at the attempts and issues to see why we stick with the cubes as they are.

 ### Concept of the cube
 
 The cube is the cornerstone of UC2 framework. Its purpose is to create a bridge between the toolbox and any external component. The cube itself is universal and thanks to the modular design of the inserts, it can be adapted for any application.
