Making a 3x3 (Need ideas)

[Cubing_Marmot]

I will give an update of my progress every week (most of the time)

 

[Thom S.]

edges which have torpedos like the zhanchi cube

Not sure what you mean. From what I have seen, newer cubes still have torpedos and the design for them never really changed.

I just remembered, I think the old Zhanchi had the removable tornadoes.

Hey!
Speedcube design is something I've done for a while now, and I have a lot of experience with it.

It's exciting to see more speedcube designers from the west, so feel free to reach out if you need any help and advice in developing your product!!

Edit:

If you decide to use OnShape, I have made some resources available so you could go straight into designing and not try to worry too much about the general part structure.

This last one is quite cool! Thanks!

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone!

Thank you for all of your responses. I am almost finished with the core. I will show a picture when I am done with the core.

Cool idea! You are 12 and build a cube? Good work!

 

[Thom S.]

Which is odd because I didn't have Technical Drawing class until 7th Grade, where you are mostly 13

Dang, smart kid. All As, 2+2 4, theory of relatively, etc?

the stuff's hard indeed. how would you remember?

I skiped one class. It is not that hard

 

[DuckubingCuber347]

Alfred William Yankovic started 9th grade at 12 and began getting his major in architecture at the age of 16.

It is not that hard.

 

[Thom S.]

Skipping grades might be hard, might not be.
I don't know because I've only ever seen america do it.
Might be because it's not that good of an idea psychosocially.

Make a classic name and use a colour in chinese or an adjective + long

I liked the names of Weilong, Meilong, Huanlong, Huanglong and the like way more than whatever they have currently.

The word “huang” of yuxin huanglong actually means the colour yellow in Chinese. Yuxin used to name their cubes with different colours like yuxin white 2x2, yuxin blue 4x4, yuxin purple 5x5, yuxin red 6x6…
And the word “long” actually means dragon in Chinese.

Hello! I am currently designing a 3x3 and would like to know if any of you had any ideas for different hardware and features inside the 3x3.

are you modifying a cube or making your own from scratch

 

[Fukuoka Kengo James]

The word “huang” of yuxin huanglong actually means the colour yellow in Chinese. Yuxin used to name their cubes with different colours like yuxin white 2x2, yuxin blue 4x4, yuxin purple 5x5, yuxin red 6x6…
And the word “long” actually means dragon in Chinese.

I would suggest naming the cube as “yinlong” or “jinlong” as “yin” means silver while “jin” means gold, which are very cool.
