Hi guys, I want to produce a few 3D cube images in various solved states. I used to have a little program that let you set up any state but I've lost it and can't remember the name. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

One of these?

Where can I buy an Edison Cube Square-1?
(Is there a better square-1? If so, where can I get that too?)

I would suggest Calvin's at hknowstore or MF8.

Cheers Renslay it was VisualCube. I'll try the others though, thanks again.

Roux - Is there a tutorial on how to make the first and second block by attaching a pair to a center, then inserting an edge etc?

just use intuition: you should be able to figure that out if you play around with the concept of blockbuilding a bit

I'm learning algs for last two tredges on 5x5. Some of the algs have notation with 2 W's. Like Rww or Lww. What does this mean?

For Rww: R+inner right layer+center/middle layer
For Lww: L+inner left layer+center/middle layer
A "w" adds another layer. Just like in 4x4 notation a Rw is the right layer+right inner layer

I had a feeling it was that. I still couldn't get the alg to work. I'll have to check my x and x' then! Thank you.

No because you shouldn't have a fixed way to do it, and I don't see why you'd need a tutorial for a specific strategy...

Also, centre edge pair while making corner edge pair then inserting is a better way imo because you don't guarantee a 3 move insertion

1. If I insert an F2L pair without the center-edge piece at the bottom, how do I insert the center-edge piece later in fewer moves?
2. On the second block, if I've placed the RDF corner and RD edge in the correct location. How should I insert the RF edge?
3. What method would this be:

Solve 3 edges of L layer
Solve 4 corners of L layer
Solve 4 corners of R layer
Solve 3 edges or R layer
Solve LSE

Ordered a black wittwo type C, now I want tiles for them and all cubesmith has for Wittwo are stickers.

I read elsewhere from someone who bought Eastsheen that they were a little too small (each Eastheen 2x2x2 tile measures 2.1 cm), but just wondering how MUCH too small?

Can someone give me the size of the surface of a wittwo type C cubie that the sticker goes on?

1: lul you need to be more specific
2: RU:M and friends
3: Waterman but not really

±2.4cm

Alrighty. thanks

If you really wanted tiles you could cut your own from uncut material http://cubesmith.com/uncut_tiles.htm
It would be a pain to do but that the only other option

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Ordered already Wait and see.

1. by storing the pair in a place where you can easily insert it afterwards
2. figure it out intuitively. hint: try dumping the pair on U, insert the edge and then try to reinsert the pair
3. a very shitty method

F2L intuitive

How do you make the F2l intuitive in CFOP?
Any manners?

I will to speed up with it, because I do 1min20 for only F2L

I learned it from this tutorial:

Its by far the easiest to understand
