Nebraskan Speedsolver's Custom Cubes and Puzzles | Interesting Puzzle Mod designed by 1x1 wr holder..

[Garf]

Hey there everyone, I decided that instead of trying to make custom magnetic cores, I will just focus on changing the structure of each core and corner feet to make the performance different. Hopefully, I can just use the magnetic core kits that are already available for the 4x4 and 5x5 cubes, for pyraminx idk what I will do yet.
If you guys have any other ideas shoot me a message!

Edge/core magnets?

Edge/core magnets?

So, similar to the Gan Enhanced?

Any updates?

Nope, been too busy and moneys tight.
Saving for my first comp

I have updated the site and added a few products. The MAGevo has been discontinued as it was too expensive to produce as a 3x3. Prices have also been changed, let me know if you want a product added to the site!

WHat is this

It's my custom cube shop, I started it a while back but had to quit because it wasn't bringing in enough money to be sustained. That and school got in the way

 

[NebraskanSpeedsolver]

Updated the site, added better pricing and puzzle ideas, and put better placeholder images in place

Totally didn't add an 8x8+ page to the site...

For those 2x2's and the WRM 4x4 are you sure that they can easily be magleved? If so are you able to find suitably sized magnet rings for them? I know that the MGC 2x2 might be posable but the YuPo v2 is not going to be that easy to do. The WRM 4x4 looks impossible to maglev.

It looks like it should be okay to make maglev
Locating the hardware might take a little while, but I found my maglev rings for 3x3 and 5x5 pretty cheap from China, but it takes two weeks to get here.
the others I could find on eBay

But the thing is the center structure and how the Magnet rings will fit inside with properly good feasible spring like elasticity once the screw is tighten down good enough.

Oh duh I completely forgot about that part.
I might have to use some really thin ones like GAN cubes, and if I can't get them to fit, maglev 4x4 probably won't work

Any ideas for what 3x3's to mod?

Also, side note:

After some tough consideration, this project will be somewhat suspended up until the spring season, if not later, dipping into summer. The problem with this is school is gonna ramp back up during the second semester, and I will need to make money to make prototypes, and measurements to make the parts...
It's gonna be a process, but hopefully over the summer this thing can take off.

You should make magnetic mods of some non-WCA puzzles that don't have magnets, like FTO, Curvy Copter, Kilominx, or Master Pyraminx.

If I knew how to magnetize puzzles, I'd do something with Kilominx and maybe Master Pyraminx, but I have no idea what to do with FTO and Curvy Copter
@Fukuoka Kengo James would be a better guy to ask about those two

I had also planned to do Mirror Blocks

the sheer idea of magnetizing a curvy copter makes me poo my pants

@Fukuoka Kengo James did one or two if I remember correctly
