3x3x3 Cube Mods

[littlejkim]

I have four cubes, Old Type A I DIY, Type C I DIY, Type F II NIB, C4U DIY cube, and a Rubik's brand storebought cube. Do you guys have any mods that I could use? Thanks

saimese is very easy and pretty fun. extended takes a bit more work, but you don't have to learn anything new and can impress people with your cbue with juts =)

I love siamese though (mostly cuz I figured out my own method) I'd say go for that

... and a 1x1x1 while you're at it. everyone should have one. lol

is there a good way to make this? I made one but it was very loose and hardly felt like a well-put-together project... maybe I just did horrible.

you could drill the hore by taping the 1x1x2 and use a handdrill. make sureit's taped tightly.

ah ok I think I understand. Did you have to resize peices? like make grooves in them and such? or did you just sand them down to even cubies?

what do you mean by grooves? i just simply make a 1x1x2 and shave down the cap alittle, and then drill the hole and put modded plastic buttons on the other 4 pieces.

ah ok I understand this now. Sorry, I had a noob moment, the grooves were in the 2x2x3 I was trying to make. totally different.

Is there a vid on making this or did you just do it? cuz now I wanna try again tonight and not fail

link doesn't work. malformed video ID... bad time to throw out the L2 xP

Edit: also, when asking someone for a video, I'm more asking for a good video... because there are a lot of poor ones now. Maybe I should be more specific... or go watch them all myself, but I'm at work and can't, so I asked a fellow cuber instead =)

 

[iSpinz]

Ummm.. Its really easy though. I made one.

my fault was that I was thinking of the wrong cube in my head. I do agree the discussed cube is easy to make, and I had a noob moment. =(
