I want to learn more puzzles other than the official wca puzzles. I have a kilominx so i have 1 non wca puzzle. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

i like mirror blocks honestly

Ghost cube



but maybe don't scramble it

Planning to make my Thunderclap V3 a maglev because it was my first 3x3 and cube. What should the magnets I'll use be? And even what should I replace my core with?

I don't really know, actually! It has a conical internal structure, so I don't really think any maglev system would particularly fit it.


This might be a very anticlimactic, but keep it the way it is; maglev doesn't provide a major benefit to springs other than being much faster and heavier. The thunderclap v3 is already a very heavy cube, and the weight might just push it over the edge.

If you really want a maglev cube on the cheap, I'd get a Meilong M and a maglev conversion kit. It would cost less than the rs3m2020 maglev, and it would be light, which would compensate for the light weight of the meilong.

You could also get the rs3m2021 maglev too, which is an excellent option if you don't want to DIY! I'd probably recommend this, since for a few extra dollars you get adjustable compression as well, and similar performance to the thunderclap v3!

yeah i think getting the 2021 is better

How to make the magnets in the inner layers of the YJ zhisu mini M 4x4 less bumpy?

I've heard that some cubers add additional magnets to the qiyi clock dials, but only the centres. Why only add magnets to the centre but not the edges and the corners as well?

Does anyone have any idea on how to magnetize the lefun time machine? I have heard that some have actually done that before, but I am not sure how they did that.

Is there a way to put corner-core magnets in any cube?

I want to take an older cube (like GTS2 or Valk 3) and upgrade it with corner-core magnets and edge magnets, just for fun
