    POP Method (BLD Method)

    First off, Amazing quality of production. But honestly, i don't think this method is better than Original OP for these reasons. 1. Complications in setup moves, adding thinking time 2. memo fluidity is destroyed and made very complicated (compared to normal memo), also adding thinking time. 3...

    What is your BLD method?

Force the cube to cut a ridiculous amount which should never really be all that necessary. And then finish it up with a summary of "It's pretty good" or "It's not that...

    [Help Thread] Lubrication Thread

    Normally when we add the lube it is just a thin layer allowing the pieces to glide over the other pieces. adding more increases the size of the layer, allowing the lubricant to move at will with the other pieces then making a counter productive effect of added resistance whilst still giving the...
