Yao is too complicated for me. Also the 3 22 3 thing... Too much thinking LOL.. Yeah it takes all evening to put that stupic cube together. Shaky hands/fingers..

I use Yau, but I make the cross pieces on the bottom instead of the left side. See results on my introduction page.
And about assembling cubes.... I changed the springs in my SS6. I tried to be careful, but most of the cube fell apart anyway, so I just started from scratch. It turns better now.

I am looking at a Yau tut now.. nifty thing I see is that I start out almost the same, just not the white edges there.

Looking at this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_4oEKyTuAM

I am going to try this alright. Haven't gotten to the why the one of the three needs to be in the wrong spot though.. *shrug* Just going to see if I can fiddle with this proper lol

Good video!
 
I found out why the one needs to be in the wrong spot. You need to kick one out and replace it, easier to kick out a wrong one than a right one. He explains further on :)
 
Hmm.. want me to make a vid then on it, on the dealie up until 9:30 in his video? :)

Just have to laugh at me fiddling with them centers when I have two bars that need swapping LOLOL!

I am LOVING this yau thing hehe.. it's fun.
 
Oh wait.. I THINK I get what you mean with the edges (yeah I can't sleep again. sigh)

He makes a slice first so the edges go in wrong compared to the centers, shifted, I think that is what you mean and where you get confused.

Now.. just go along with that, and when he starts going back (so when he should put in the 4th edge pair) you can see why the edges were put in weird. Pay close attention to what happens right when he inserts the matching 4th pair cubie. The third pair he made earlier gets bumped out to the top layer is replaced by this 4th new pair.

The slice is a setup move to allow the previous made pairs to get bumped out and placed in the top layer so they make room for the new pairs that are made while the slice is being undone.

Kind of like where he puts in the three white edge pairs with the one pair in the wrong spot, that way he can bump it out and replace it easily without having to do more moves that he WOULD have to do had he put the pair in the right spot to begin with.


Hopefully this makes a bit more sense to you now? :)

Well, the method is a kind of fun.. I think you can master it fairly quick.. I take 10 minutes now.. ;) But we will see in a few days. LOL

I am still fighting with the edges lol but I need to realize that I get left with two that I can solve the regular way. And then I went into my F2L and . .. hey.. where is my cross.

Oh shoot gotta mind that too lol

It is FUN alright, feels a bit like when I first started learning F2L :D

Oh Marcel, check the zcube topic for the solution they offered me :)

Yeah if you mess up the 32223 thing (which I also totally do not get because last edgde pair parity case needs to move cross edges) your cross will be f... up. I am just starting on doing the centers with white on left and yellow on right. Doing three white edge pairing (and thinking about where you put the third pair. And then the other centers with just R r U.. It takes me more than 1,30 minutes.. Centers on my onw way take 30 seconds.. LOL

Yeah, I read the zcube topic. They are awesome! Best cube service out there.
 
Yeah I find that I need a different algorithm to get them two matched up!

I put them on the same level front left and right and then do Dd R F' U R' F Dd' which messes up the cross.

At least the edge swapping doesn't hurt anything (R U R' U' F' U F)




Aha!! Looks like I got something:

Uw' R U R' F R' F' R Uw to replace Dd R F' U R' F Dd'

Hrmph that is not quite it either.
Hmm.. looks like that IS it.. lol need to fiddle more with this one hahaha
