Ok, you might be thinking: 'Are you ******* crazy?!!!???!?!!!?'. But it's true guys. 
Please tell friends by PM or e-mail etc. Of this thread, because you will find it very exciting.
Things in this thread.
-ORACAL VINYL, CubeSmith replacement.
-New (possibly better) Memory type
-BONUS LUBIX=not 100% silicone, a cheaper alternative to LUBIX.
-2ND BONUS What MARU lube is made of.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CubeSmith Replacement, ORACAL Vinyl.
CubeSmith uses ORACAL VINYL stickers (www.oracal.com or www.orafol.de), this kind of stickers is the EXACT SAME as what LynxShop and MARU is using. There is many selection of color available in a hardware shop near my place, but the problem is you have to cut it yourself. I have an edrely friend who can produce all kind of variations of this stickers (1x1 up to any puzzles), he have a BIG adn EXPENSIVE printing and cutting machine for these stickers. I plan to make MARU, V-Cube (5x5 6x6 7x7), Rubik's new type, Rubik's OddzOn, and Rubik's studio logo (I probably will sell them to my club but only a SLIM chance of that happening). anyway it won't de-color in bright sun, water-resistant, and scratch-resistant. Just like CubeSmith's.
PS: Maru Standard non-glow or trans is Oracal Vinyl.
If you would like to order, you can use whitelynx_nivla's site: www.LynxShop.net (international order now available), bank transfer seems the only way to pay, altough there a 'PayPal' logo underneath the ShoutMix.
If you want to order contact [email protected], and say: Where you are, wht language you're using etc.
If you want to order at their website (www.LynxShop.net) please use GOOGLE TRANSLATE or A FRIEND WHO TRANSLATES FROM INDONESIAN-ENGLISH (The friend translator seems to be more effective)
Also cubes on LynxShop have the most cheapest price (not incl. shipping)
anyway, here's some pic. (Please be patient as many pics is loading, THIS IS IMPORTANT, some of their product is not produced by CubeSmith)
BUT FIRST
RECTANGULAR EDGES STICKERS, YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Matte 3x3
3x3 Trans
Rubik's 2x2 Size
ES 2x2 size
If you want to see more go to: http://www.lynxshop.net/index.php?route=product/manufacturer&manufacturer_id=27

Here's the new Memory type, IMO it should be called Lynx Memory
OMEGA-1
Translation of item description
Original Indonesian:
Memperkenalkan : Omega Cube - Cube that ends the rest.
Ini adalah project custom cube pertama dari LynxShop yang kami dipublikasikan.
Custom cube ini berbahan dasar Guo Jia Alpha (V) yang dimodifikasi. Modifikasi ini bermula dari eksperimen kami mencoba apa yang dilakukan oleh Mr Haiyan Zhuang saat menciptakan Haiyan Memory Cube. Namun sejalan dengan waktu kami menyadari, bahwa hal tersebut masih dapat dimaksimalkan lagi.
Sebagai tambahan, kami memberanikan diri untuk menyediakannya dalam keadaan sudah terakit dengan core kuning Guo Jia Alpha. Dan juga dengan menggunakan sticker Oracal Vinyl khusus untuk ukuran Guo Jia Alpha.
Karena ini adalah project manual yang dikerjakan dengan tangan yang membutuhkan ketelitian dan tenanga, maka stok kami sangat tergantung dari ketersediaan waktu luang kami (dan juga stok dari Guo Jia Alpha (V))
Thanks kepada Fendy Santoso untuk ide nama custom cube kami.
English translation (I edited some because Google Translate isn't very reliable):
Introducing: Omega Cube - Cube That ends the rest.
This is the first project of LynxShop custom cube that we published.
This cube-based Custom Guo Jia Alpha (V) is modified. This modification stems from our experiments to try what is being done by Mr. Zhuang when creating Haiyan Haiyan Memory Cube. But over time we realized, that it can still be maximized again.
In addition, we make bold to make it available in a state already assembled with yellow cores Guo Jia Alpha. And also by using Oracal Vinyl sticker size Guo Jia specifically for Alpha.
Since this is a project done manually with a hand that requires precision and tenanga, then our stock depends on the availability of our spare time (and stock from Alpha Jia Guo (V))
Thanks to the Fendy Santoso for the name idea to our custom cube.
Here's some pictures
I've included more picture of the white base because it will be more easier to see the modification.
Base on what I see, the Edges (and probably centers) is sanded down too.
So by logic, the perormance is going to be better than the Haiyan Memory.
It costs about 21$ (not incl. shipping), the total MAY be more same or more expensive then the Haiyan Memory, but you will get a better performing cube.
Please contact [email protected] if you have any question OR PM whitelynx_nivla for info on the cube.

adit: salah satu dari beratus referensi yang menurut saya lebih bisa dipercaya
18.09.2010 01:28 #
adit: @TK 421 ini barusan saya iseng cari di google. link (http://www.mii.org/Minerals/photosil.html)
18.09.2010 01:28 #
adit: @TK421 koloid = campuran 2 atau lebih zat tapi tidak bisa dipisahkan secara fisik (tidak mengendap atau menggumpal)
18.09.2010 01:26 #
adit: @dirgan ini sepertinya zat inilah yang membuat maru oil jadi berwarna putih, tidak lagi bening.
18.09.2010 01:25 #
adit: @dirgan yup, untuk mendapatkan campuran yang cukup cair, dibutuhkan zat lain untuk membuatnya jadi koloid (tidak mengendap).
18.09.2010 01:25 #
TK 421: @dirgan, Koloid? apa tuh?
18.09.2010 01:23 #
adit: @TK 421 mgkn komposisi perbandingan pelarutnya berbeda. Tapi pelumas seperti ini dari dulu komposisinya ya hanya itu-itu saja.
18.09.2010 01:22 #
dirgan: maru oil itu bukannya koloid sempurna yah?
18.09.2010 01:19 #
TK 421: makasih infonya. jadi LUBIX=Lynx Shock Oil? MARU oil itu silicon ya, saya kira suatu campuran khusus dari semua kimia gitu
18.09.2010 01:17 #
adit: @TK 421 kalau pelarutnya sedikit=hasil kental=bentuknya oil. kalau pelarut banyak hasil=cair=mirip maru lubricant.
18.09.2010 01:14 #
adit: @TK 421 jadi menurut logika, jika silicone ingin dijadikan sebagai pelumas, tidak mungkin bisa 100% silicone. Pasti ada pelarutnya.
18.09.2010 01:14 #
adit: @TK 421 tapi bentuk dari 99.999% Si itu adalah kristal logam. Coba kamu search google, lebih banyak sumber refensi yg lebih bisa dipercaya kok

adit: one of the hundreds of references which in my opinion more trustworthy
09.18.2010 01:28 #
Adit: @ TK 421 I was just idly looking on google. link (http://www.mii.org/Minerals/photosil.html)
09.18.2010 01:28 #
adit: @ TK421 colloid = mixture of two or more substances but can not be separated physically (not settle or agglomerate)
09.18.2010 01:26 #
adit: @ dirgan this substance seems this is what makes oil so maru is white, no longer translucent.
09.18.2010 01:25 #
adit: @ dirgan yup, to get enough liquid mixture, other substances needed to make him a colloid (not settle).
09.18.2010 01:25 #
TK 421: @ dirgan, Colloids? What is that?
09.18.2010 01:23 #
adit: @ TK 421 mgkn different composition of the solvent ratio. But this kind of used lubricant compositions that only yes-that's all.
09.18.2010 01:22 #
dirgan: maru oil is not the perfect colloidal yah?
09.18.2010 01:19 #
TK 421: INFO thanks. so LUBIX = Lynx Oil Shock? Maru silicone oil that yes, I think a special blend of all the chemicals so
09.18.2010 01:17 #
adit: @ TK = 421 if the solvent slightly condensed result = shape oil. if solvents many similar result = liquid = maru lubricant.
09.18.2010 01:14 #
adit: @ TK 421 so by logic, if silicone to be used as a lubricant, may not be 100% silicone. There must be solvent.
09.18.2010 01:14 #
adit: @ TK 421 99 999% but the form of crystalline Si is metallic. Try google search you, more sources of reference, who is more believable kok
09/18/2010 1:12% 2
adit: @ TK 421 essentially, in fact, has never made any substance who can 100% silicone, due to molecular instability.
09.18.2010 01:11 #
adit: @ TK 421 if I create a page myself in shape LynxShop who said silicone gas trust or not?
09/18/2010 01:10 #
adit: @ TK 421 everyone can create his own info on the web. Try to open your chemistry book in junior or senior high school. 100% pure silicone crystals at room temperature bentukna
09.18.2010 01:09 #
TK 421: @ adit: reference lubix website (lubixcube.com / Lubix_Cube / FAQ.html)
09.18.2010 01:06 #
adit: @ TK421 are you sure you know exactly the form of 100% of silicone?
09.18.2010 01:04 #
adit: @ TK whose name internationally could to the world.
09.18.2010 01:04 #
TK 421: @ 555: LUBIX's actually 100% PURE silicone (not oil, the most pure form of silicon), if you want to buy there LUBIX (lubixcube.com)
9/18/2010 00:56 #
TK 421: continued international orders get to the USA or India baseball huh?
09.18.2010 00:54 #
555: lubix = shock oil is inserted into the syringe (injection): hammer:
09.18.2010 00:54 #
adit: @ Guest23 name new-aja. liquid silicone composition as it was sold from 1900-s, eg Rubik's liquid silicone
09.18.2010 00:42 #
Guest23: @ adit Wew lubix I think the new brand, tnyata uda lynxshop sale of the same old haha
09.18.2010 00:33 #
