Combinations of Objects

How many combinations are actually desired?

For instance, 6 objects whose size, shape, and material all differ will yield 20 different possible combinations of 3.

Taking this further, pulling 6 objects whose size, shape, and material all differ from the intermediate and difficult sets would equate to 6 easy objects with 20 possible combinations.

Combinations of Objects If we take this route, we would need to

know the number of desired combinations of objects for a given set

Planning the objects in this way would reduce the number of objects to be created (and thus their overall cost), while not limiting the flexibility for the experiment.
