I got my YJ 4x4

[Innocence]

I still think QJ's are better. Cant w8 for the v-cube 4

yj is a v-cube clone. it's the same thing, and the best one out until V-Cubes comes out with their 4x4.

Don't kid yourself. The V-Cube 4 is going to suck, just like the V-Cube 6 does.

The V-Cube mech sucks for even-layered cubes. I'd actually like to see Rubik's brand make a ball-core 6x6.

Do you really think Verdes is going to stick to this mechanism, even though it has been improved through sanding and pins?

yj is a v-cube clone. it's the same thing, and the best one out now.

I don't like it, and neither do many other people.

When you tried them, and the yj 5x5, you said you liked them, whereas I hated them.

Anyway, I really didn't like it, and I'll probably wait until the Maru 4x4 is out, before getting a new one. Neither of these really impressed me like your mini qj does.

yes. that's all he has patented, as far as anybody knows.

That doesn't mean he won't improve it, with a mass produced pi mod or something.

double layer turns on a YJ are just terrible compared to on a mini or fullsize QJ, regardless of any mods

mod the yj and the double layer turns are no longer how you say they are.

it wouldn't be in the patent. i would bet money any smart company would only produce something they have a patent on, or that can't be patented.

you may too think the yj is better with mods.

Pi didn't patent it, obviously. Why not use available technology to better your products? As the actual v-cube mech is patented, there's little other practical use for the mod.

Rubik's couldn't think up of a 6x6 mech because of the corners.

Huh?

 

[Meep]

Rubik's couldn't think up of a 6x6 mech because of the corners.

Huh?

Wasn't it because they couldn't make all the cubies proportional cubes (On the outside)?

I watched a MMAP vid and he explained that when the U layer was turned 90 degrees, the corners couldn't hang on to the edges.

ummm, what kind of cube falls apart turned at 90 degrees?

He will then explain to you why.
And btw, a really loose DIY can fall apart after being turned 90 degrees

 

[canadiancuber]

the corners would break off because only the stalk is supporting it.

And that doesn't justify your claim at all. I'm still convinced it was "Rubik's didn't" rather than "Rubik's couldn't".

As far as I know Ernő Rubik himself thought about an idea for mechanism for bigger cubes then 5x5x5. As I heard it would have been way to expensive to produce it.

(That's all I know no need to ask stupid questions such as: WAT?! Rubikx is gonna make 6x6 and 7x7 OMFG?!?!?!?4411,,)

If Verdes were to improve their patent with MM&PI's mod, shouldn't he receive something for it? Or would he have to copyright first?
