13.50 single. Really happy - PB of just over two seconds.

EDIT: For future reference:
  • Method: beginner method
  • Cube: GAN 356M
  • Scramble: U' B2 D R2 D B2 R2 B2 U' L2 F2 D' F' L U2 F U L' D U2 F'

Just got a new PB MO3 and AO5, both on the GAN 11M Pro Mini (pretty much out of the box - no setup), and both using the beginner method. Stuffed up the cross on the fourth solve and had to fix.

1. 18.29 L U L' B2 U R2 U R2 B2 R2 D2 L2 D' U F' U B D L' F' U'
2. (17.73) R2 F R2 B2 R2 U2 B2 F2 U2 F U' F' R F' U L' B' U R'
3. 19.31 B2 R2 F2 U R2 D2 R2 F2 R2 B2 U L2 R' B' R' U F U L' R2 B
4. (24.01) L2 B' U2 R2 U R2 B2 D' U' F2 L2 D' B2 R2 B' L F D L2 R' U'
5. 19.92 U2 R D' L F' U F B D R2 F2 R2 B2 L2 U' L2 B2 L2 D2

MO3: 18.44
AO5: 19.17

Butterflower cube finally solved!!!

After 8-10 hours of trying to get this myself and using a few different methods & strategies I had to watch a walkthrough solve. I was only 1 simple step away from completion; using a twisted corner to 3-cycle and build the final petals. Then it was just 3-cycling to victory!

This was a very rewarding solve and a great puzzle. I might make a video because there are no short concise tutorials out there.

I finally found some time to intuitively solve on the curvy windmill cube, it’s one of the cubes my wife gave me for my birthday many months back that i unboxed blindfolded. It’s just an axis cube with curved cuts. It’s a fun shape mod!

This is definitely good progress. As far as improvement, one size does not fit all. For the time you vs someone else puts in, you will progress slower or faster.
