Cubeforyou cubic 3x3x5

At my last competition i actuallly traded for a great 3x3x5 ff. surprisingly it is shape shifting and it can be made out of a 3x3x4 very easily. So i am not gonna buy it and i would include the pics but i dont know how. :(
 
Where i can find a good tutorial for making the 3x3x5 from the c4y 3x3x4? maybe my age is betraying me but what "ff" stands for? :o

FF means fully functional. The C4Y 3x3x4 is fully functional, because all the sides and layers can be turned. This isn't because one of the layers is basically just glued on, which means it is 'extended,' and so it shapeshifts. A fully functional, non-cubic 3x3x5 shapeshits too (as far as I know... lol), but because all the sides can do quarter turns. The FF non-cubic 3x4x4 can't shapeshift because only the top and bottom sides can do quarter turns.

Thank you. I know what means fully functional. I own a 3x3x5 extended and 2 c4y "ff" 3x3x4 (now i can use this acronym because of your kindness). I want to try to make an 3x3x5 from a c4y 3x3x4, anyone?

I found this thread using Google. It's basically just a picture of the 3x3x5 and later in the thread it has a little explanation of how it's made. I'll get the stuff from Popbuying when I make my next order, and try it out.
 
I will try to make a tutorial soon since it is the only one i have ever heard of. but it is very simple because all you have to do is.

1. get a 3x3x4

2. seperate all of the inner edges and cornerrs.( not the edge pieces that are curved)

3. cut off the parts of the inner edges and corners that cover the 3x3x4 centers.

4. replace the curved edge pieces with normal 3x3 edges

5. assemble the puzzle and cut the stickers in half for all for all the pieces you cut.

6. give credit to the inventor of this mod Will Ulmer (youtube=ulmboy556)

7. Enjoy ur brand new FF 3x3x5!!! :)

( i will include pics if some one can message me on how to do it :) )

Sounds very reasonable but i think i will wait for your tutorial. I dont want to mess up the puzzle because only have one for trying this mod.

Can it shape shift?
 
BUMP!

It is still listed as out of stock but the price is up now.

It looks like it will be $19.99. Not so bad.
