I've got the MGC 2x2 up next, any other ideas?

That seems like a cool idea, however, I am terrible at magnetizing pieces like that.
Maybe just a BC v2M?

Not very familiar with the internal mechanism of the mgc2, but I have mained the BC tengyun v1 2x2 and BC chuwen 2x2 at some point

the internal mech is basically the same as every other 2x2

It's basically a ChuWen internally

You seem to be confused, what's up?

I'm curious as to how embedded magnets affect turning and the advantage of them.

The chuwen have caps on top of a one-piece corner design

As the magnets are closer to each other, weaker magnets can be used to deliver the same stability. Hence the turning feels softer and pieces glide with each other more smoothly.

@siwoo your main is modded in that way, can you describe how is it different from a stock model of the same cube?

I'm talking in terms of how the edges & centers are shaped and how the edges, corners and centers interact with each other. Other than the corner shell aspect, it's all very similar if you look deeper.

It can be different in terms of the way you build the ball core if you don’t know how to drill holes on a split corner piece design.

 

[Bingus Ringus McDingus]

Here's the ChuWen vs the MGC. The MGC has a separate corner stalk, so ball-core could work.

yo this looks fun, I'm hopping in.
yeah, I just opened up my qiyi ms 2x2 and mgc 2x2. the type of core kits that I have been producing lately would slide right into these.
although I must ask... what is the purpose of ball core 2x2? all fingers are on it at the same time and they are easy to control right?

is this done with 3d printed parts or epoxy putty?

Imo the effect of BC is even more significant on 2x2 than 3x3, where it keeps the puzzle in shape and not to deform easily.

Hundreds of holes are drilled into the puzzle accurately

really? even in the core? wow that's hard work.
