Maybe that cube break in tool he talked about on his Youtube channel?

according to cubelelo they use a special break in tool for the elite(custom) cubes.

GTS 2M WHEN???????

Any update?

 

[4Chan]

According to the tracking provided by MoYu's shipment, this week!

 

[@realCuber]

Is there a boron gts2 m coming out? Otherwise I'll buy the gts 2 m.

 

[FJT97]

Which magnets do you use for the two different versions of gts2 m and which one would you recommend @4Chan ?

@4Chan I know you're not selling 4x4 magnetic cubes to the general public, at least yet, but I know you've made some. What size and strength magnets have you used? I'm planning on magnetizing a Yuxin Blue.

He almost certainly can't tell you. I've seen him get asked this several times at competitions.

Josh is right!

However... keep posted.
I invented a really cool thing!

Within a few weeks, if my invention works, the company will use my invention to sell magnetic 4x4s !
Recently, my job has changed to just inventing things. I went from Customer Service to Magnetier, to 3D Printing Inventor

Sweeeet!!! I'm still gonna figure out how to make my own, 'cause that's half the fun.

E: just because I'm curious, any idea on the price range of magnetic 4x4s?

Since the WuQue costs 20 dollars, and that many magnets would prob be around 8 bucks, and manual labor would be like half a day(at very least), i would think the cost would be around 90 dollars. idk tho, lets see!

If you or I were doing it that might be right, but I strongly suspect that your half a day estimate is very high.

Looks like you have something up your sleeve

I'm gonna guess it's printing something around a magnet so that the magnet can be placed in the piece without glue.

Magnetier! I might have to use that word.

You know, I think you're the only person in the world whose professional job description is Speedcube R&D.

Idk, I'm sure Gans and Moyu have some guys who come pretty close

You're right, I wasnt taking into account that all they magnetize is the edges and corners. Lol cant do anything with the centers. If Chris can do say 3 cubes in 2 hours, that is 72 magnets an hour. Since a magnetic 4x4 should have 72 magnets in it, he could probably do one 4x4 in an hour. So i guess the price would be more like cube(20 $) + magnets(8 $) = 28 $ + marketing raise 50%(like 20 $) = 48 $ + labor(15 $) = 63 $. I bet their prices should be right around 65 dollars for a magnetic wuque.

That would be about my guess for price point too, but actually I think a magnetic 4x4 takes 96 magnets, because they need to be doubled up along the center slice. It's also more difficult to place magnets in an even-layered cube, because you need to put more than one magnet in some of the edge halves. Unless Chris has another trick up his sleeve, as he hinted.
