Is it possible to remove ten unit cubes from a 3 by 3 by 3 cube made from 27 unit cubes so that the surface area of the remaining solid is the same as the surface area of the original 3 by 3 by 3 cube? In how many different ways can this be done?

I removed all eight corners, leaving the total area unchanged.

I removed the central cube of the top surface obtaining an increase of the surface area with four units.

I removed one cube from the middle of an edge at the top (any of the four remaining) and I arrived at a figure with ten cubes less then the original one but with the same surface area.
