He broke his arm or something.

 

[fundash]

thats to bad, I know a guy who broke his leg, he has to where a bag over it if it's raining...

Did you see mah sig? pretty obvious

anyway, ive never heard of using a toothbrush, what about using a sponge?

 

[fundash]

a sponge would probably work too!

btw, no one has aid yet,

Is it a good tutorial? (aside from the few minor mistakes and stuttering...)

 

[JLarsen]

Edward: A lot of OH pll is just 2 hand pll.

On Topic: I thought it was a decent tutorial, it was just really lame =P. But then again, it is a tutorial on cleaning and lubing a Rubik's Cube, so this may not be solvable.

Very helpful. Never thought to use dishwashing detergent. I watched the whole video. I should do this on my 5x5 if I manage to dissasemble it, as I vaselined it. (when I didn't know better). It is soooooo loose. I clean out my 3x3 (Edison) quite often, though I have different ways.

Btw, YOUR SINK IS SOOOO COOL.

Thanks!
I hope you come back to this video for future use

He is obviously made out of salt and will melt. Stupid question...

lol, that would be bad for the cube also, right?

I used to do this, however the soapy toothbrush on the pieces directly may be a little overkill, unless you're using mega-gunky silicone, or some oil based lube but even then.

I don't really see how this is any better than putting in the dishwasher.

I don't think you needed to make a video for this, kinda obvious.
I've already done this personally several times with several cubes.
Oh well, maybe some people aren't creative enough to use a sink and toothbrush

Over a LONG period of time it will build up, haven't you experienced this?
I haven't been cubing for long enough, so I haven't I've only heard from others...but i would think you have been cubing for long enough to experience it yourself...

What's an old unused toothbrush?

To me that sounds like a new toothbrush or am i mistaken?

 

[fundash]

a new toothbrush is fine, i used one that was old, not really unused though...

Silicone oil builds up very quickly. I need to clean mine out.

basicly it's an unused tootbrush, except that it has been in your cupboard for ten years.
