Washington is better than Alaska if you ask me, just the specific town we are in is not appealing.
Learning those sounds awesome bro. I don't even know what they are lol!
I just solve.
Been training hard on 3x3. I am trying to focus on smoother, more accurate turns, so I use the 3x3 stage on 7x7 for that, and for look ahead I train one hand, and that is how I got my 13.70 pb ao5!

I hope you have a great time there.
Conjugates and commutators are tools for creating your own algorithms to solve any puzzle; they’re very powerful if you understand them well.
Wow, you’re making great progress!
It really cheers me up to talk to you again. I also told my partner that you’re in another state and that you’re doing well; she sends regards.

Jared Burkhart

My best regards to you two as well!
Yeah, I missed our chat here. Glad to be back again!

RS_Cube

Thanks! I imagine there must be some great places to eat where you are now—a good local burger, for example.
That one-handed technique is incredible—it must take a lot of practice! I'm glad you're making progress.

Jared Burkhart

Yooo thanks!
The food here is indeed interesting!
I actually enjoyed the Chinese food, I don't remember eating a burger yet haha!
And yes, one hand took about 3 weeks to help me improve, thanks for noticing!
How are your pets doing?

RS_Cube

I'm glad there's good food over there; I like Chinese food, too.
All my pets are doing well! Last night we went to rescue a stray cat that had a wound in its mouth; now they're taking it to an animal shelter.
I didn't know about your YouTube channel. I've already subscribed! I watched your new video! I'm SanjuanElectronics.
Keep it up!

Jared Burkhart

Thank you so much

Jared Burkhart

I think I subbed back yo!
I will check it out when I have time!

RS_Cube

Thanks for subscribing! And it's interesting what you mentioned in the video about the magnetic cube with red dice, haha.
The key is to make sure the large central magnet is strong enough and pivots without the layer coming apart.
With these kinds of puzzles, you can't do fingertricks, which is why I say the face can come apart.
How's it going, bro?

Jared Burkhart

Going fine!
Thnx for asking!
I am going to buy a new cube...but am thinking of changing where I buy from... I don't really appreciate the customer service at the speed cube shop. Amazon does not have the exact inventory that I usually look for...I love the Cubicle, but they are pricy. Looking into Picube and seeing their options...where do you buy from and what do you think about these retailers?

RS_Cube

It's true that Amazon doesn't have a very large selection, but it does have good customer service.
I shop at Chinese stores (Cubezz and CubeIn), as well as some Spanish stores. I once used TheCubicle just to buy stickers.
I have a good opinion of all of them—I haven't had any problems.
Well, fall has officially started here! It's still a little warm, but it's nice.

Jared Burkhart

Washington has a desert and it gets above 80° Fahrenheit.
Love the new area we are in now!(we moved again lol. Soap Lake, WA)

RS_Cube

Wow, that's great! I'm glad you're doing well in your new town.
Be sure to send me some photos!

Jared Burkhart

I sure will!
My camera didn't work half the time so there is not much.

RS_Cube

Well! But whatever it is, it's bound to be great!
On Sunday, I'm heading back to the mountains, where I was in July.

Jared Burkhart

Send some pics as well!
The ones I have are still in my memory card that I have not put in my device yet...but I will get to them!
How long have you been building your cube collection btw? You have an impressive amount of rare ones

RS_Cube

I'll see if I can! Great!
I've been collecting for 10 years; I have some interesting and rare pieces, but not a huge number.
I'm looking for and collecting them little by little—some pieces are a bit expensive.

Jared Burkhart

But they are worth it in the end, and that is what matters to each of us!
(Some ok pics I have recovered)

Jared Burkhart

RS_Cube

Spectacular photos! And with your family—that's the best part.
