Crazy bad cubers how to make a vcube great or something like that. I expect it to work on a Rubik's brand cube

Hellraiser Cube mod.

Hi, could not find one so decided to make my own Rubiks cubes based on the Hellraiser pussle box.
I used blank rubiks cubes and printed stickers with transparent overlay stickers to keep them from fading.

These are available for pre-order but US only.

I have a SS 4x4 and 5x5, both aren't in use anymore. Since there are summer holidays for me now, I have quite a lot of free time What mods can you recommend doing? I don't have a lot of experiences with modding, so which puzzles are easy and fun to make?

Tools I have are: dremel, sandpaper, hacksaw, file, (spray paint?)

2x4x4 and 3x5x5

Use the same concept as the video above to do the 2x4x4

Im planning on ordering around 100 cheap 3x3s for modding purposes, which would you recommend?

Qiyi Sail has a fantastic mechanism for modding and can be cut down very deeply and is very cheap

So as the title states I would like to get started 3D printing puzzles and eventually start designing some, but first I need a 3D printer and the materials. Does anyone have good suggestions for a reliable 3D printer and what sort of plastics I should use? Any help and/or suggestions would be nice

A cheap one would be the ender 3 https://www.amazon.com/Comgrow-Crea...ie=UTF8&qid=1545829516&sr=8-3&keywords=ender3 the best one would be a prusa https://www.prusa3d.com/ and i mostly print in pla https://www.amazon.com/HATCHBOX-3D-...al&ie=UTF8&qid=1545829739&sr=1-4&keywords=pla

Best to use a service like Shapeways or I.materalise since the quality is far higher. As far as I know even Oskar van Deventer doesn't have a printer.

Yes,but printing your own would be cheaper

And may not work.

Hello.
I am a beginner cube modder from Sweden, and there is only one major cube shop here.

I am interested in making a 5x5 barrel modification, I looked around on YouTube and figured out that people use the Shengshou 5x5 for this mod. Only problem is that my local cube shop doesn’t sell that puzzle.

I was wondering if the Cyclone Boys works instead? Or if not, what other 5x5 could work except the YJ?

Thanks!

I was wondering what 3x3s are the best for making mods. I want to make a barrel mod. I have a QiYi Thunderclap that I am considering using but I have heard that the QiYi Sail is a good puzzle for mods. The issue is I can't find a sticker set for the QiYi sail on thecubicle. I have not made mods before so any help is appreciated!

how could I start learning to design pieces and such?

I just want to share with you my Coronavirus Cube:

IDK whether to laugh, to like, or to angry

(Not sure if it's good thread for this question)
What are great projects to start modding? I want to start with something easy, without 3D printed extensions etc. I thought that I may do some Siamense Cubes, Fused cubes and (maybe) Square-0.

 

[PetrusQuber]

I’d say bandaged cubes are really easy and good

Does anyone know good 3x3s for modding? I know the sail was good but that was discontinued.
