SS 4x4 solution to internal lock-ups

[Konsta]

Hey.

Trying to restart my cubing again and got couple new cubes, shengshou 4x4 v3 was one of them

I made the normal edge and center mods to my cube, but had similar internal lock-up problems as many seem to have. Didn't find any solution for it from this site or youtube, so I decided to figure it out myself.

Modded all internal parts like in the pictures:

So it's all the "first-contact" parts between bigger and smaller internal parts that I rounded up.
Bigger part has 8 spots modded and smaller one has 4 spots modded.

After that I basically have no lock-ups anymore with this cube.
I hope this helps.

Cool, Russians are usually very effective in these kinds of things, you people will probably find improvements to this mod I'm sure

When I just finished Florian's mod on my ss4x4 and finished assembling it...
Typical...

Haha, don't worry. I've taken this cube apart and assembled it so many times I lost count
Test out the Florian's mod before trying this to see how much it makes difference.

Yep, I have also modded Dayan+MF8 4x4, but it still pops sometimes, therefore I prefer using SS, even tho I like the turning more on Dayan.

I think I'll have to try it due to the amount of positive feedback.

Thanks in advance.

While we're on the topic of the SS 4x4 tell me. does anyone think it would pop more if you sanded down the flares on the bottom of the center piece? oh. and i also did florians mod on my SS 4x4 and at first it popped a lot. but it sort of broke itself in afterwards. i had to tighten it, but it was definitely worth it in the end.

heh... I didn't now this cube locked up internally... It just needs to eat more fibrous foods.

Thanks for sharing this mod.
