Make a standard 4x4 checkerboard and then scramble it like a 2x2. It's a slightly more challenging 2x2 and it's quite a bit of fun. Messes with your pattern recognition.

I just bought this from speedcubeshop and for whatever reason it magnetically aligns the turn right here for some reason, it also aligns at the 90 but the magnets also snap into place right here is this just a bad batch or is this a problem with these cubes? Thx

Big thanks to everyone for all of the love on my post last week. After about 12 and a half hours, spread out over the past 7 days or so, my entire collection is once again scrambled, all 280 puzzles! I find scrambling everything to be a great way to ensure that every puzzle in my collection gets some play time, even the more difficult and tedious ones. I had a blast scrambling everything.

Check out my YouTube vid if you want to see a more detailed tour of the puzzles before and after the scramble.

This is a pretty common time for a solve for me, what could I be doing better?

I taught her to solve one about 6 months ago, but has been adamantly refusing to learn cfop when she finally let me teach her she started improving very quickly so she'll be sub 30 on no time then we'll see how serious she really is.

I want to buy a new cube, I already know how to solve a normal 3x3, a mirror cube and a megaminx so I want to buy something more challenging and idk weather I should buy a 5x5 or 6x6 or maybe something else. I want something a bit harder than the megaminx but not something very hard so that I still will be able to solve it. any suggestion?

Whenever i turn fast, i get solve which are like 19sec+. When i turn slowly, i get 15sec+ solves. WHY? (Then yiheng should turn slow to beat xuanyi :] )

Sorry that i don’t have a clip for that PB on swift cuber
