[Member Intro] Old guy cuber

[EddyEddy]

Hi Cubers. Eddy here. I'm trying to solve the professor. Having difficulty with edge pieces. I solved the 3x3 about 48 years ago when I was twelve. I used a book that I had bought (no internet back then). I didn't pick it up again until about six months ago and had to learn it all over again. It took me about six months. Next I bought a 2x2 and it was harder than I expected. I finally got it. Next came the revenge which I did in about 2 days. Now the professor is giving me trouble. I can do the 2x2 and the 3z3 in about 3 minutes. the revenge in about 6 minutes. I have solved the professor twice, but can't do it again.
Does anyone know of a step by step solver that is not a video?

Hello eddy and welcome.

Do you need a written tutorial for the 5x5 cube?

This is an extreme ironing forum? Anyway, what's your favourite iron? I love the HIGHKAS Garment Steamer as my main or the Tefal FV5670 as a budget option.

Yes, that would be great.

3x3 about 48 years ago

That's 1973. The cube was invented in 1974 and first released in 1977. Not trying to be hypercritical or anything. Still, it blows my mind how long ago it came out.

The word you're looking for is hypercritical.

The word you're looking for is hypercritical.

And that's why I'm getting a C in English right now.

I guess it was probably more like the late 70's. I smoked a lot of reefer back then so I'm not exactly sure.

Yes, that would be great.
