    V6 / V-Cube 6x6x6 Mod thread

    I was wondering if those of you who have tried out various mods on your V-Cube 6x6x6 could post your experiences/times in this thread. On a side note, I personally haven't tried any mods yet, and wanted to see if it was possible to get fast times without modding, or if modding was necessary...

    2x2 - Seeing the whole solve during inspection?

    While there have been many threads on 2x2 methods in the past, I'm not sure if this particular topic has been discussed before. A lot of the more advanced 2x2 methods lend themselves to seeing all but the last step of the solve during inspection, but do any of the current 2x2 methods allow...

    The orange stickers might look closer to pink than orange in the video, but that's just the camera's fault. I'll try to get a sub-1 on video soon :).

    Fingertrick Analyzer

    I recently made a program that, given an algorithm, will analyze it to find the best execution (this is determined by the number of regrips, and which fingers have been specified to turn which sides). In this program, hand positions are defined as follows: "neutral" position (number 0) has the...

    Brain Puzzle Simulator

    As some of you know, I have the UWR for the brain puzzle. I tried to order one for a friend a few months ago, only to find that its production had been stopped. Over the past few days, I made a brain puzzle simulator in Java. It has quite a few neat features, including different solving modes...

    Comparison of DIY Types

    Note to mods: Please move this post into the Beginners Central section if you think that is a more suitable location After doing some searching, I found a few comparisons of types a/b/c, but no formal, detailed comparisons.

    Method Description Page

    Due to the rising number of questions concerning various speedcubing methods, I propose that we create a thread / sticky that has descriptions, links, etc. for all of the commonly known methods and variations, as well as some other lesser know ones. Also, we could do this for puzzles other than...

    "Mirror" Neutrality

    Hi everyone, Within the next few months, I'd like to work on becoming LR "mirror" neutral. By this, I mean being as fast as my right hand with my left hand. At the moment, I am a predominately right hand cuber, as are most sub-20 cubers (my usual average is 14-15). I seldom use my left hand...

    CLL and ELL

    Hey everyone, I decided to learn full CLL and ELL today. It took some time, but I'm quite happy to know 2 separate 2 look LLs now :). As expected, I cannot recognize every case or recall every algorithm instantly, but I do know all of them, so that should just improve with practice. And...

    US Open 2007

    This thread is mainly for those who are planning on attending the US Open 2007 from June 16-17. I was thinking that people who will be attending this competition might be able to stay in one common hotel, so that a mini cube-meeting could be held prior to or after the competition. If anyone...
