The Cube Hybrid Thread

[koreancuber]

Old type A I cubies with cube4you core and centres is amazing !!

I was using that for some time, but the cube itself is too loose in my opinion. If I tighten the screws, the corner cutting ability drops drastically. (I mean really, it can't cut corners) Some good things are that it is VERY smooth, never locks up and is loose (if some people like it).

JSK frame plus C4U cubies= smooth turning and corner cutting but it is poplicious

why would you use C4Y cubies??? they're not very good.....

 

[crazymanjimbo46]

I was experimenting and it turned out good, That was the first time I ever used the cubie's in a hybrid.

PLEASE ANSWER:
What core would go better with TaiYan Hardware and pieces?
a. Type A
b. Type E

 

[~Phoenix Death~]

Prolly Type A.
But try a C4U core. I always wanted to see.

 

[negative_earth]

i'm currently using Rubik's DIY with C4U core...

it's still loose like the original one

but at speed, it doesn't often pop

except you use force to get free from lock-ups

hhmm... yeah... lot's of lock-ups

but i still love it

try C4U core... it has existing screw lines (cmiiw)...

it prevents screws to tilt during the insertion

I tried this and it is the fastest thing I have ever laid hands on.

- Cube4You Core, Screws & Springs (fat end down)
- Type C-II center cubies
- Type A-I everything else.

Amazingly fast, but you have to set it loose. Has a distinct feel to it.

what makes a cube may have a good cutting corner ability?

the center? or the edge?

i'm thinking about doing these set up:

1. - C4U core
- rubik's DIY screws and springs
- rubik' DIY center
- Type A V edges
- Type A III F corners

2. - C4U core, screws and springs
- Type A III F center
- Rubik's DIY edges
- Type A V corners

3. - C4U core, screws and springs
- Type A V center
- Type A III F edges
- Rubik's DIY corners

just some switcharoo

i'll post a report in 2 or 3 days

or maybe upload a video about it (if my internet connection is good ^_^)

btw, have anyone done this combination before?

Type D + old type A core + store cubies = goat

Type D + old type A core + store cubies = goat

goat? slow?

I just tried to use edison cubies with rubik's DIY core and it turns out great!
it even nicer than my sanded edison that was already good enough!
it's smoother and doesn't need to have great cuts corner ability

 

[dillonbladez]

F-II corners + Ghosthand everything else
it really makes the ghost hand alot faster. Not much pops or lockups.

DO NOT TRY
a)
Ghosthand Corners
type C edges
C4Y frame

end result: too slow. no corner cutting. the GH corners are too big.

b) F-II corner
Type C edges
C4Y frame

ok, very fast, not that great corner cutting

LOCKS UP LIKE A DEVIL

Broken in Ghost hand peices (center peices, edges, corners, screws/springs)
Type Alpha II(Tracks) Core (just the yellow thing).

Nothing about the GH has changed, except its a bit faster, and cuts corners A whole peice now.

Ghost Hand core
Edison cubies

 

[cuberkid10]

Cube4YOu DIY core and type C1 cubies. Loosen the core a bit, and its amazing!

 

[stevethecuber]

Old type A core+ Type D cubies
Type C cubies+ C4U core- Tried it..its ok...Better than the above one
Type C itself is what i use and im sticking to it=D
I need to change my signature :/

 

[radmin]

What do you mean by "core"? Are you guys swapping out the center pieces or leaving them?

My definition of core is just that, the core. No center pieces, no screws springs, no other pieces but that thing in the middle.
