Think I can get away with jig-a-loo?

I personally wouldn't. If I did, I'd dismantle it and spray the individual pieces. Then put it back together when it dried.

Disassembly and Jig-a-Loo don't mix. Unless you work it in immediately, it causes your cube to melt together.

no, disassembly and jig-a-loo are perfect. I spray Jig-a-loo, and wait around 5 minutes (only 5). Then I assemble it in and break it in. I think that's the best way

Badmephisto did a little experiment and he found that simply popping out a few pieces is the most convenient and best way though:

...Though I'm sure sweeping could work too, if you want to take the time.

update. The M-slices on the GuHong cube SUCK. They overshoot too much, that I needed to learn R, U algs for them. (for my EPLLs). Also, sticker application is pretty hard, and I don't know why.

that sucks D:

well maybe you should learn to control your M slices =P
hopefully i get used to the slice moves, I hate my JSK because it's still my best cube after so many years D:

unfortunately yes but i'm still grateful it's been faithful to me and not died off. I still hate it because its hard to control when the layers are misaligned after picking the cube up which happens like 1 in 10solves =/

Guys, I need your opinions (personal opinions, now don't start criticizing ppl's opinions lol):

GuHong > Alpha (5) > F-II ? And then comes the Type-C? ;o

[dabmasta]

I want to get a new cube. Should I get a memory or this gu hong? So far I'm hearing to differen't opinions about this, one that it is really good, and another that says it is all hype.

I can't say it sucks, but it's getting worst (IMO) every time I solve it. WAY to fast for my taste, and I'm starting to prefer my old speedcube over this.

Can you make a review on it?

would you like to elaborate on that?

Let me guess. You think that the more hype the cube is, the more it's worth sh**.

 

[dabmasta]

People are scared of change. I haven't personally tried a GuHong, but from what I gather, it is a nice cube, and the people who have said negative things haven't provided with any hard facts.

 

[incessantcheese]

the "way too fast" edit on your review is making me look forward to the cube more, definitely. and wouldn't that make it better for OH? it can't possibly be THAT fast, can it...?

It's like a smooth Memory. <-Sounds cheesy.
With better corner cutting (DUH)
And a wee bit more popping, but perhaps not too much.
