Freezing a cube?

[CubesOfTheWorld]

I have a few spare storeboughts, and i was considering putting them in the freezer for a day. This could possibly make the cube smoother, but I also run the risk of ruining it. Will freezing a cube really do anything?

see what happens.
I hear freezing 4x4 pieces help, so why not?

Umm, why?

Don't do it.

lmao this reminds me of disney on ice for some reason.

its as unthinkable as putting your cube in the microwave.

It might mess with springs a little bit but I doubt anything really bad would happen.

i would just use a storebought, so the springs dont matter

Let me tell you what happens when you do
It smells like ****, and ruins the cube. at least when I had faith in Vasaline.

depends what storebought you have though.. rubik's brand has springs and a few dollar store cubes do too.

well, the springs make barely any difference in storeboughts

i agree

I thought storeboughts had rivets instead of springs...

I just stuck one in the freezer I will post if it is better in the morning.

Wow, is ANYONE going to say ANYTHING about the Rubik's Ice Cube? That was quite a failure of a 2x2, who knows what will happen to a 3x3?

You've got your parts confused =/
Storeboughts have Rivets and Springs
Diys have Screws and Springs

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Kind of uncalled for dude >:T

Ive actually put a cube in the freezer (don't ask). Does nothing. The cube will be slower for like 30 seconds but then it'll be back to normal. What gave you the idea it will make it smoother?

When I first got a Rubik's Cube, I tried everything to make it better like those on YouTube (I didn't know about DIY's) Part of lubing method that I was doing included soaking the cube in water (o.o) soaking a piece of cloth paper in water, wrapping the cube with the paper, and putting in in the fridge. A few hours later, when the paper was pretty crisp, I took the cube out and it turned considerably smoother and faster. So I am not sure if this could be the same as freezing the cube, but I hope it helps in some way. O.o

That made me feel much better.

I dunno. i thought it would make it smoother because... well, i dunno

Sorry. I didn't mean to come by as mean. I just thought it was a funny mistake. My apologies.

 

[infringement153]

Yes, I do admit rivets are far ways from being applied as springs...

I thought that storeboughts had just the rivets, no spring nor screw. I have never felt any "springy" action in a storebought....must not be very noticeable.

Never mind, now.
