Tungsten Cube Metal Density Cubes Pure Metal High Density Element Cube for Element Collections Lab Experiment Material Hobbies Heavy Small Objects Experience (Carbon, 1 Inch)

The edges are too sharp. A little roundness would be good for safety and usability, considering how dense tungsten is.

This little cube is very cool and funny. A little sharp around the edges, but has a heart of gold, figuratively speaking. In reality it has a heart of copper, which isn’t bad 🛁. Copper’s very conductive, so I’m sure there’s a metaphor somewhere in there.

The accuracy to which the cube is machined is perfect. Right on the dot at 1.500 inches, maybe 0.0001 - 0.0002 inches oversized. At this resolution, simply holding the cube in your hand for a few minutes and warming it up will change the dimensions. Weight is 1062 grams on my kitchen scale. Obviously my kitchen scale doesn't have a NIST-traceable calibration, and I don't mind that it's slightly overweight. The flimsy, thin plastic storage box that it came in was completely destroyed in shipping. Dear manufacturer / seller: if you're reading this, please include a much sturdier box, or none at all. It's simply a waste of resources (i.e. my money) to use the one you currently do. The price... Well, it's certainly much cheaper than some other identical offerings here on Amazon, and I looked thoroughly, both here and off-site. This was the best deal I could get, but I still have buyer's remorse. It's a lot of money for a cube that sits on your desk and does nothing, especially considering the bulk price of tungsten is about $30/kg.

My kids are getting into chemistry and love to listen to metal. What better gift than heavy metal? Highly recommended, much safer and less expensive than more dense metals such as Plutonium (toxic to human health, radioactive) or Iridium (1 cubic centimetre costs over $10,000). It is sitting in a place of honour on the shelf in our toy room. Warning: Do not drop on the floor. It is heavy and WILL leave marks.

The Cube Density High Density Tungsten Cube is an impressive addition to my element collection. As someone fascinated by the properties of different elements, this 1-inch cube of tungsten is incredibly dense and heavy, which makes it both educational and captivating. The cube is machined to perfection, with smooth edges and a flawless finish, allowing it to stand out in any collection or display. Handling it is a unique experience due to its extreme weight relative to its small size. It's a fantastic conversation starter and a must-have for anyone interested in material sciences or elements. In terms of practicality, this tungsten cube is perfect for lab experiments or demonstrations. The high density of tungsten provides a tangible way to explore the properties of elements, and the cube is durable enough to withstand repeated handling. It’s not just a great teaching tool, but also a fascinating object to keep on your desk or in your collection. The compact size makes it easy to store or display, and its weight always impresses when you hand it to someone for the first time. Highly recommended for collectors, educators, or anyone looking to experience the density of tungsten firsthand! Pros: - Incredibly dense and heavy for its size - High-quality machining with smooth edges and a flawless finish - Perfect for element collections or educational demonstrations - Compact yet durable, great for handling or display - Unique and fascinating object for material science enthusiasts Cons: - Higher cost due to the material

Pretty cool
