Really fun puzzle box if you come up with your own solutions

UPDATE* 1/22: I found a cheaper box at over 50% off with blocks of the same quality. Don't buy this overpriced. I got the cheaper one and it's literally the same blocks and it comes in two colors in one pack; which is a plus for me. The base is also wider when standing. What makes it interesting is the search for new solutions. There is more than one solution. The key to finding a new solution is to keep the following points in mind: 1. Your first level should not be higher than two block levels. You cannot stack one or more parts vertically. (Actually, you can create and repeat levels 1-3 as the puzzle has 6 levels, but the third level must be completely flat with no voids. It's a bit harder but more fun to challenge yourself this way.) 2 .Your second layer must be perfectly flat and free of voids.3. Repeat levels 1 and 2 one by one until you run out of blocks. See my attached photos for my first and second layers. I came up with this solution myself and it differs from what is written in the book. In fact, I threw away the pamphlet and lost the original solution and had to post the first solution that appeared in the book on YouTube. If you keep using the same solution, you'll get bored. Follow the steps above for more solutions to get the most out of this puzzle and keep your brain on track. I hope they release more puzzles like this one.
