Just a small message to say hknowstore just ROCKS! They sent me a new core for the 4x4x6 and I just finished assembling the cube and all is fine and dandy now. Cube rotates MUCH smoother and I am very happy indeed

All mine are like that - I reckon it's the lube that has to warm up (Traxxas 50k).

Aha.. yep. I use that in the core and 10k on the cubies.

None of my cubes have that. I fact, when they are cold they are super smooth and fast. When warmed up they get slower. I think it because the silicone expands when it gets warmer..

Cold cubes are not fun to cube with for me.. and I prefer my cubes speeding up instead of slowing down 
I think I'll stick with my regime lol

Maybe it depends how much lube is in it. When cold mine feel slightly gummy. Actually I sometimes find my best solves of the day are early solves, whne my hands and the cube are slower, because I get fewer lockups and fumbles.

There.. all cleaned out. There was a bit of gunk still in the cube after doing a small center mod, and I felt today was a good day to clean it all out.. so.. I did that, nice and clean and relube, and then.. whaddayaknow.. my new cubesmith tiles were in.. okay.. old tiles off, new tiles on. Whole new cube

Congrats! That's what happens when you have a clean cube

Congratulations! I think such a time as first solve of the day is even better than such a time after warming up.
My first solves of the day are in the most cases very bad.
I hope that one day I get a first solve of the day of 20.29 and think that it is a bad time

LOL Marcel!
First solves of the day are usually very bad for me, but not this time
Well.. plan was working the whole day. and then morning client decides to fall and go to the hospital and there I was ringing at her door for naught. So.. afternoon client in the morning and afternoon off
(well.. for me, not so much fun for the morning client of course, poor woman)
But.. I can CUBE now!! (food first though..).

Well, I can jsut say that sub30 seemed to be one of the hardest barriers for me at first. Then I went on vacation without a timer or a good cube (I brought a modded Rubik's brand along) and when I got back I was averaging 27 seconds.
It was weird.
Now I'm stuck on sub-20
