Cube Slices

The pieces can be combined to build two cubes.

This is not difficult, but it is interesting to have a close look: Cutting a cube into slices may lead to peculiar pieces.

For example, if a cube is cut into halves perpendicular to its largest diagonal, then the cross-section is a regular hexagon.
