another batch fresh off the bed. I now have the bottom and middle layer. I threw the pieces on my first speedcube, the Qiyi warrior s.

Well, yea. You have to bury it somewhere, you can't just leave it at the funeral

I wanted to print in white, but I still had a little bit of orange in the tube so as a result, you get a color layering effect. I’m going to paint all the pieces, so it doesn’t really matter. Thx for asking.

Ok, makes sense I gotchu

Only thing left is to print center pieces. I’m supposed to use a qiyi core, so I will have to buy an extra one. Before buying one, I will try to print my own. This hasn’t exactly been done before, and I will try coding one in a 3D modeling software.

After some sanding, it turns better than a Rubiks brand, but it still needs work corner cutting. I think the problem is just with the warrior core pieces I am using. The ones I have to print may fit better.

IMO it looks like a gan.

I've heard of tools where you can scan something and then make a copy of it. I'm curious, if you could find one to borrow, if it's possible to scan the pieces from a cube, and then print everything.

Yes I am aware of 3D scanners. There are apps that can be downloaded on mobile devices that do the exact same thing.

if you wanted to, you could honestly take a Gan center cap and try to make it fit on your cube, to make it a "knockoff" Gan

Maybe i should call it a "Can"

Yo I would literally make custom logos for that haha

You may be interested in checking out the twisty puzzles forum as well. Some people there may have 3d printing advice. They focus more on puzzle mods and the design of new puzzles over there. Some of the bigger names there (such as Oskar van Deventer or Tony Fischer) have created hundreds of puzzles. Its more for the sake of having a new puzzle than for the performance of the puzzle though. And that is not to say don't post here! Especially if its meant to be a speedcube. We'd like to see it. I don't recall. Speedsolving forum having an area for puzzle design many years ago when I was around. If it was there, it wasn't very active. Nice to see its picked up.
