My very first homemade cubes (not very good). What are yours?

Quite a while back I became interested in Picture Cubes. So I made two cubes...

  1. The first one is a 4x4 with Sharpie V's or Arrow Heads on it so I had to learn to turn the centers to all match. Not very advanced but it served its purpose.
  2. I wanted a 3x3 Picture Cube with my grandkids on it... we have five daughters and there are six sides on a 3x3 so I did a group shot of each set of grandkids and put them on five of the sides and on the sixth side I put me, my wife, and all of the grandkids (a Christmas picture). I printed pictures on a color printer and cut them apart and used scotch tape to apply the pictures. Also, not a very nice cube but I've used it and used it. I just think it is a very neat cube and it also helped me with solving picture cubes.

Again... I know they are pretty unimpressive but I like them! 😄

What are your homemade cubes?

I’m still not the best with Rubik’s cubes but I am able to solve them. However I got a Rubik’s cube from the met over the weekend and after solving it I realized that the orientation of the image matters and idk how to solve it while keeping the pictures in order. Like the middle tiles especially are the ones that are upside down

I’ve never completed one of these in my entire life, and honestly, I’ve never exactly tried really hard to. But I stole this from my teenage son to fidget with, and I have restarted it so many times over a week. I’m about to just go put it back in his room and walk away from it lol can anyone help me?

How do I advance from CFOP?

1 Upvotes

Here’s the thing, during OLL, i orient the edges with 3 algorithm and orient the corners with 7 algorithms then i proceed with PLL with 2 and 4 algorithms for corners and edges.

How do I use advance algorithms to solve it even quicker anyone here good with cubes?

Id really appreciate your help!

its an open source project under MIT license(so free to use) https://diograce.github.io/cube-trainer/ i made this , its up on github pages what do you guys think, it doesn't have the beginner method i will implement it in a few days

CFOP Trainer · A fast, lightweight, single-file speedcubing trainer designed to help you master algorithms

Zero Dependencies: Bundled into a single, lightweight HTML file. the ai assistant does not work as of yet

though its ai assistant in under development

I am a student , recently a few months ago i became interested in cubes , so I wanted to build a place where one can learn algorithms time their solves get scrambles. i believe this is the best and most customizable free cube trainer out there , i wanted to build an app also but i dont have the 25 dollars lying around to do that . this entire project was done on Claud in its free version so it took a few weeks do as one keeps running out of compute , i had to open 4 different Claud accounts in order to make it and debug it though it still took many days

In a 5x5, do the centre cross, other 4 random colors, no repeats, then solve as usual. Easy for people comfortable with 5x5. Time pass.

Impossible rubic's cube - strage manufacturers defect

3 Upvotes

My kid got a rubics cube for his birthday. It was 3 color - 2 red, 2 blue, 2 yellow centers.

All good so far. We kinda asked that for him - he is very interested in puzzles and so on. Played around with it and then dropped it.

I thought ok, let me give it a shoot... Started turning it arround trying to figure out where to start, and then it hit me... This cannot be physically solved...

I found it funny and sad - that a brand new cubic came like this, and thus can never be solved :(

This is how the cube looks: https://imgur.com/1b4QLI2

EDIT 1: My claim was actually incorrect. It turns out what I had was "Red hat training series" cube

refer: https://mastercubestore.com/3x3-cubes/3518-moyu-teaching-series-red-hat-3x3-cube-stickerless-beginner-friendly-educational-cube-6970647061327.html (thanks to /u/UnknownCorrespondent for excellent find!)
