I have the V4. Fasttech has the V3 SS4 and SSS5 in one package. I do not know how the V3 is. My V4 is perfect. I am thinking about buying an extra V4 to do the mod that Cubyx recently did (as seen on his facebook).

Yeah I was thinking of doing that to to mine. First I have other things to shave off (like ice in my freezer, everything content wise is now outside LOLOL!)

 

[MarcelP]

Yeah, pretty cold here too. It's -8 celcius in my garden.

That's why I love Brazil, it's never that cold here. Today is 20ºC, and that is a cold day for us lol.

 

[Kattenvriendin]

LOL at least this weather is handy for these kinds of jobs that I am doing. Throw sh*t outside, clean, throw back in freezer.

It's not something I'd do in the summer

LOL 20ºC cold? Last winter I was skating with my son and it was -22 at 11 o clock in the morning. Still the sun was shining and it felt ok.

Today a Ao100 color neutral. I thought it going very bad. Lot's of 30+ solves. But when I finished I looked up when I had my first sub 32 Ao100 and that was just December 14th.. But then I think I had quite a few white crosses in there. The Ao12 of 26.61 must have been 80% white crosses. So all in all, not bad..

 

[MarcelP]

Aaarggghhh. Nobody told me before I signed on to this hobby that I was going to have to deal with this kind of stuff..

What brand is that 6x6? And yes; all even numbered cubes are a nightmare to repair; mainly because of all the internal pieces. I found that out when my Shengshou 4x4 popped before I had to go play golf.

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Oh that is not that bad. You can get it back in order Just tighten it a bit more, that should sort that out.

What happened to cause that?

 

[MarcelP]

Just a normal turn caused that. I tried to fix it for 15 minutes and then threw it out in the trash does this happen to shengshou also? If yes, I will stick with 4 x 4 and 5 x 5 then.

 

[Kattenvriendin]

Aw geez.. pick it out please and send it to me in an envelope or something? (not kidding)

You threw it to the trash :0? Why didn't you look for a YouTube tutorial on how to fix it?

[Kattenvriendin]

Green is next, but I might learn a new PLL algo first.



I'd say do pick it out still.. poor cube. I know I can get it back together

Eastsheen? I know their 4x4 and 5x5 used to suck, have they improved anything on their cubes recently?
If you can't fix a popped cube, just keep them in a bag and bring them to a competition, there's always crazy people (like me) willing to fix them for you

I am sorry, it was not an Eatsheen but Diansheng. I will bring it with me to the next comp.
