M slice technique poll

[PandaCuber]

I cant do much with left hand.
M with right. R and U with Right
U' and L with Left.

 

[waffle=ijm]

lefty and lefty cuz some site told to use left.

 

[Endgame]

right handed, pushing slice with right

overview of m slices in general
M' = YES
M2 = M3' mehh
M = FUUUUUUU-

I don't have a standard way of doing M, I do what feels the most comfortable at that moment.
M' = tap BD with right ring finger
M2 = double M' or sometimes M3'

 

[5BLD]

M2 = double M' or sometimes M3'

M2= M3'? Seems legit

 

[Endgame]

M2= M3'? Seems legit

[ben1996123]

right handed/mostly right for µ but sometimes left too.

 

[Cool Frog]

M with...
Right index, upward push on back with left ring or wide stuff

M: left ring, left middle, left pinky

M2: Left pinky+left middle, or Left ring+left middle

Really, it depends. I write with my right hand, but am definitely not right handed, I'm mixed-handed. Which hand I do M turns with depends on the case. I'll always do an M2 with my right hand, but will do M's with either hand. I'll do Ms with either hand as well, so I don't really know how to vote (mixed-handed and depends on case)

 

[Cheese11]

I do it with my right hand ring and middle fingers. It varies depending on the moves I am, and will be doing.

 

[NEONCUBES]

Left Handed and use right hand for M slices.

 

[Robert-Y]

Where's the mixed handed option... :<

 

[stoic]

Right handed; I do M' and M2 with right hand. Sometimes I do M with the left though

 

[JonnyWhoopes]

Where's the mixed handed option... :<

Good point. Care to elaborate a bit though? Do you use one hand more often? I realize it's a faulty poll, but if you can try to vote.

M'

EDIT: Thread is suppose to be M, not M'. Sorry.

I'm currently switching from CFOP to Roux and I'm having difficulty with M. How should I be doing this turn? Currently I either use my right pointer finger to drag the M slice toward me, or I do R r'. Both seem slow and inefficient. Any tips?

Sorry if this is somewhere else but I did a quick search here, on Google, and on Youtube but found no answer.

 

[Kirjava]

You mean M.

This is the bajillionth thread on it. Maybe I should add it to the FAQ.

 

[stevecho816]

Use your ring finger and push the M layer with it

 

[Tyjet66]

Yes Kirjava, I meant M, sorry.

Steve, thank you, that is what I do for M' but I had meant M.

 

[Zarxrax]

I use the same finger. I just push or pull depending on which way it needs to go.
