I used the search function and it said how but how often do you think it should be cleaned and lubed. I just watched one of camcubers vids and he said he did his once a week. How often do you do it.

Around every 3 weeks or so. If your a pro you may want to do it more though.

I never clean my cubes and I lube whenever I feel my cube could need it. No specific time frame is needed.

In all seriousness, it depends on the cube.
My type C gets a little dusty/nasty after a while, but that takes around a month and more.
However, my type A gets nasty faster, and so, i might have to clean it out in a few weeks.
As Patrick says, lube whenever needed, and for me, its sparingly.

I've been using my Diansheng for about 4 months and cause of this thread I checked the inside and it looks clean and it doesn't need lubed because it's moved very nice ever since its first lube.

i never really clean my storeboughts (i always end up rusting the core, giving the cube a vaseline feel), but i lube with jig a loo every couple of weeks or as needed

I clean it out by scraping the pieces with an exacto-knife to get the silicone off.

EVERY cube should be cleaned regularly (disassembled soaked in soap water for 10-15mins)..but I don't have a particular regularity for cleaning my cubes. I just do so when they start to suck (they always do). It's probably around 1 month once or so..
For those who have not tried cleaning their cubes..try it. You'll know the difference

I do it as much as it needs it.
If the cube is feeling slow and your hands get tired quicker, it might be the time for some maintenance.

When it comes to lubing, I subscribe to the philosophy of, "use more than you should more often than you should." Nationals taught me so much...

if thrawst can put a cube in the DISH WASHER, you can use your hands to gently scrub and a qtip to get in the nooks and crannies (always wanted to type that)
