Custom Cubes and Puzzles

I should have probably been clearer. I would definitely try the maglev clock, not the 4x4. I have seen videos of people trying and failing horribly

I don’t do much modding but I did make a messed up colour scheme on my meilong 3x3

Most people don't mod cubes, however there are a few of us that either like to mod cubes or we have to mod them to keep them functional, such as my cube

Sad news: the godly Rubiks brand has a weird side. The yellow side somehow got crazy loose and I don't know how the hell to fix it. Damn

If you are able to take out the pieces, maybe you can find how to fix it. If not, does anybody know of anybody that has cloned a Rubik's brand as a joke?

Using a different core, that is?

Well... I have great news about the "MaglEVO". I have been in contact with Cameron over at SpeedCubeShop, and he is going to test the cube for me when its finished. We started to discuss how I was going to sell the cube, and he told me that I could sell it through SpeedCubeShop! So if you guys want to try it, I should have it being sold maybe by May. Magnet ring shipping time was delayed so idk when they will show up. I am going to start with 25 units and then let people pre-order so that I can make more. Thanks guys!

NO EFFING WAY LETS GO!

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

Yea! I hope to ship it out for testing at the end of the month

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

Thanks for the name idea! I think it will catch on nicely! Now, the problem is, the price is gonna have to be around $50. Does that sound somewhat reasonable to you guys?

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

And one other thing I realized... I probably shouldn't make a ton of units to start with, each cube is gonna cost around $40-$45 to make because of the specific core that I have to get for this to work.

My only thing about this is that the MGC Evo is a really niche cube. Maybe just get Cameron to sell a conversion kit for people who already have it? It could also work on making just a maglev Solar S3M if more people would get that. Just a theory but having a combo deal might work better than just selling it pre-built without the extra parts.

The problem with that though is the core in the custom cube is from the Solar S3M

The new Diansheng Solar S has a maglev option on the way too

Nice! I thought about adding some type of UV coating to the MaglEVO, but I realized that the price is already high enough, any higher and people are very unlikely to buy it. Plus the cube has sort of a matte finish on it

That's a cool idea. I didn't know this cube

 

[Bingus Ringus McDingus]

By the way, I discovered the hard way that attempting to put a normal cube core inside a ball-core Rubiks brand will fail miserably. Just sayin
