improve my pyraminx

[Daniel Liamitz]

How can I improve my pyraminx that it will not make so much lockups?
It's a QJ.

You can pry off the tips and adjust the tensions a bit. I would LIGHTLY lube it. If you put too much, it will become to loose. Also, breaking in helps.

QJ's are really luck of the draw, its either really good, or really bad.

First day of being a mod and doing a great job!

I have a QJ, and I took the ball bearings out to make it smoother because the sides were unevenly clicky and my OCD couldn't take it. Mine doesn't really get many lockups, I just suck at pyraminx.

Indeed congratulations on mod status, well deserved mate.

On topic: I'd be happy to stand corrected but it seems to be you are less likely to get a great pyraminx just by buying a particular brand compared to say 3x3's. Does't Odder buy bulk Pyraminx's knowing there may be a good 1 or two in the batch? If I recall from prior posts.

That's right; he did say this.
