Moyu Lingpo (and possibly Tangpo) mod

[stewie98]

Hey everyone!
I always liked the lingpo better than the dayan, i don't know why but the additional catches bothered me a lot. I wanted to make this cube a bit better and i've found this way:
If you see on the picture there is 4 sharp points on every internal piece. These catch on each other when they slide across. I rounded them off quite a bit and lubed 2 of the internals in these 4 points with 30k Diff oil.
Now my cube is awesome! It hardly ever catches!
If you have a Lingpo or even a Tangpo you can preform this mod on them, it helps a lot.

Can confirm this works, I did it a while ago. At least I assume it's the same thing, the image isn't great. I like the LingPo too, I just don't like 2x2 much.

Yeah i don't really have a good camera or something to make better photos :/ but i think that's enough to show the main part

I tried this on a Lingpo, it helped a little bit, can you try this on a tangpo and let me know the results? plz, thanks

I don't have the tangpo and i don't know if i will buy it just because my lingpo is really good now

I tried it on my Lingpo. I was averaging 8.5s before and after I did this mod today I got 7.7s for average of 50. I know I'm a noob but this mod definitely helps. Thanks a lot!

Just because it can be found elsewhere doesn't mean that you can't share it. I hadn't heard about this mod (not that I had looked or anything) so it got the word out out about a useful mod to at least one more person.

OK i haven't seen that video i've just analized my cube and come up with this. Just tought it would help for some people. Didn't want to take the credit.

sorry my bad, it just seemed that you were implying that stewie98 was 'stealing' someone else's idea.
