cube4you diys?

[dolphyfan]

Hey,
I have three type a cube4you diys for about 4 months nowand i am still having a popping problem with them. I was a bit reluctant to ask this question because I figured the problem would go away eventually. From my experience with the cubes i have noticed that the plastic in which the peices are made out of bends too easily and as a result the cubes pop.........ALOT. So is there anyway to get rid of or make my situation a little better? Also in there anyone going to the kearny comp that has a two spare old type rubiks 4x4 centers? Thanks
-Tony

Try tightening the cube and then loosen it to how you like it. I did that with mine, and it rarely pops now. Hope that helps.

Tighten the screws and lube it if it feels too tight.

..i never had any problems with poping. i don't know how so many compplain about this thing...maybe i like the cubes to be more tight than loose.

so ..tighten it up. imo, i have also better control on a tight cube. don't understand now that i have some stiff cube ..

Lube it, and then tigthen it.

I thought people would figure out that it needs to be tighter when it pops...

Forgot to mention this in my question, I already have the screws very tight.

I had the same exact prob.!
but I tightened mine ALOT, make sure it's same length when tightened
