[Help Thread] Disassembly and Assembly Thread

[GAN 356 X]

Thanks guys, solved the porblem! in hindsight I feel pretty stupid for not realising the way it was

 

[qqwerty659]

hello I have a Rubiks brand that I took apart and don't know how to put it back together for the last piece (i am not an idiot it's just hard to put back together) if you could tell me an easy way that would be geat thank you

 

[PetrusQuber]

Ok so the last piece needs to be an edge. Turn one of the layers the edge hole is on 45 degrees. Now put the edge in, by first getting the sides between the corners (easy enough) and then just wriggling and pushing, making sure the bottom bit doesn’t catch on the edge below.

This video should help you with assembling your 4x4:

4x4s and larger even number cubes are known for being hard to put back together. Thats why I haven't properly setup my Aosu

 

[UndilutedCubes]

So i disassembled my speedcube for cleaning and its the first time im doing this..so im putting it back on together but the yellow cross seems to be curved and the pieces keep getting out.

 

[AbsoRuud]

Try loosening the screw on the yellow side and putting the pieces in properly, and then tightening the screw again.

I don't know what happened to my center pieces... They're not in the right place and I tried to fix it but it did not work. Please help.

Try using M E M' E'

Your post is very vague. Please clarify or post pics.

What is the "M" rotation or the "E" rotation on a cube?

 

[PetrusQuber]

M means middle layer, the layer in between the Right layer and Left Layer. E means Equatorial layer, the layer in between the Up layer and the Down layer.

Can you solve a cube?

Nope.

Great resource for beginners.

So I saw that the White was behind the Red on the cube, or something like that. So I took the cube and replaced the center pieces in the right order, tried all 6 combinations while using rubiks-cube-solver.com . It didn't work so I'm asking the SpeedSolving community

alright swap them back. this is important because of piece structure. Now solve the cube but with red as yellow and whatever you have as yellow is red

 

[fuzzballcat]

Given you can't solve a cube, I'm not sure if

Now solve the cube but with red as yellow and whatever you have as yellow is red

will help.
The simplest way to solve your problem is to arrange the center caps in the following manner:
Yellow on top
White on bottom
Red on left
Orange on right
Green in front
Blue in back

Make sure the other pieces line up with those colors too (i.e, don't put a yellow center cap on top if the rest of the red pieces are on top).

Now, to prevent this from happening again, learn to solve a cube (it's not as hard as you think)!

No, on your cube swap two center pieces. it is impossible because of the structure of a piece.

Sorry if I was unclear, I meant physically remove the center caps and put them back on in the positions I listed.
