For many years cubers have asked me to make a video tutorial for the Rubik's Cube solution I devised in 1980. I previously made one explaining how I invented the solution but not an actual tutorial for it....until now. I am also setting a challenge which is explained at the end.
This is an...
What happens when a person with a 28 second PB (from 1980) and who loves the stickered original Rubik's Cubes attempts to make a video of a world class modern speed cube? Here's the answer.

I am a massive climbing fan so it was great to see Allison Vest (a world class Canadian climber) hanging on a Beastmaker (hangboard for training) middle edge (22mm deep) doing a 2x2x2 Rubik's Cube one handed.

The loss of 5 lives on the Titan submersible was incredibly sad. Today I discovered the youngest person on board was a 19 year old cuber called Suleman Dawood. According to his mother he took his Rubik's Cube everywhere and was planning to solve it during the dive in the hope it would be the...
I have always been fascinated by the idea of having a reversed Rubik's Cube where the colours are on the inside. I have explored the subject previously with similar concepts- Open Crazy Comet plus I am sure I did something with one of my giant cubes but can't seem to find it now. There's...
I know this was talked about before release but couldn't find any other mention. The DianSheng Googol 348mm is the world's largest mass produced Rubik's Cube.
The puzzle pudding works though it definitely needed some lube as you will see at the end of the video. It was too soft / unstable to even attempt a solve so I showed it moving in all dimensions instead. A construction video will be added later.
Over the coming weeks I will be posting photos, videos and information on my new puzzle project. It all starts on Saturday 14th August with a YouTube premiere where I reveal the project and show the start of design and construction. A premiere means it is displayed similar to a livestream so you...
I propose a new challenge to find the minimum number of moves required to go through every permutation of a standard Rubik's Cube. I suspect we are many years away from having the computing power to even get close though maybe there's huge shortcuts that could be employed.
Just to be clear, I...
I know that some speedcubers use GoPros and wondered if someone with 240fps capabilty could supply a short sample for me, literally 5 seconds or so. I am not asking for slow motion footage, I am asked for the original file that was stored on the camera. I want to see if my laptop can deal with...
I have recreated Yusheng Du's world record solve on my 2.022m cube. I went as fast as I could though I had to be careful making the actual moves in order not to damage the cube. I'm not sure if this would be a reconstruction or recreation. I guess technically the reconstruction is the act of...
Here is my video that shows how to cure puzzles afflicated with stickerlessness. So annoying these days how black with stickers is becoming increasingly rare. I really don't want to own something that looks like a toddler's toy but invariably am forced to. Yuk!!!!
(I guess in 2020 I should point...
