K4 method for big cubes

[darthyody]

Does anyone know where I can find a written tutorial for the K4 method? I know that there are hundreds of videos, but I learn better when I read.

Sorry the only things I can find are some links:

Here's a guy who's asking how to solve the revenge with K4

Ah well, vids are better than nothing

The link in the forums led me nowhere......

This was just posted in the Speedcubing section yesterday.

Thank you very much, I am now learning this method and so far I like it a lot. I am having a bit trouble on putting the last four centers together and then on the LL on the 5x5x5 cube with this method though if anyone can give me some pointers or anything. Thanks again.

I've been considering Stadler and K4 and Cage. They seem to be very similar.
Which requires the least to learn for the fastest speed ? ( I don't need to be very fast, I want something that can be sub-1min for someone fast using the full method, but relatively easily to average sub-2 min for someone new learning only part of the method. I'm at about 2:40 with reduction)
A noob version of K4 with only 3 algs was the first way I've used to solve the 4x4. It sucked—350+ move count. Reduction is about 160 for me now.

I'm actually making a tutorial, in the works as of now, for the K4 method, with the first stages are part of the Stadler method.

There's the link to the one I'm explaining. It's very in-depth, has explanations for all the algorithms, and is not just one video, it's a series of them.

Bump.
Hey guys, I really want to learn this method, but This link doesn't really show pictures. I have looked everywhere, and I still haven't been able to find one. Maybe there is one that someone can link me to that can be helpful?

the pictures on thom's site aren't that great anyway. If you read the description, it should explain the method well enough for you to play with it on your own. Most people put their own personal touch on how thom does it, and its better for your understanding if you do that.

Those two videos helped me understand K4 a little better too.
