Probably but you can always buy Moyu hardware from the cubicle for like 3 dollars.

My Moyu Hualong feels pretty fast, almost too fast for me to handle. >~< I only have a screwdriver and standard Lubicle at my disposal.. Is there a way I could try slowing my Hualong down without ruining it?

Vasiline! Alternatively just try over lubing.


Anybody know how to get the washers that come in the gans 357?

Does anyone know the best 3-D printer for printing cubes? I really want to know which one to get.

The MakerBot Replicator 2 is a good 3-d printer.

If I was to get a makerbot printer, i would probably get the mini, but i was talking to bahner and he said that makerbot printers are not great for cubes.

I have a question. I have a Rubik's brand Rubik's cube which I don't use anymore and I'm perfectly fine with rendering it unusable.

Everyone says that vaseline is not a good lubricant because it will loosen your cube up to the point where it is impossible to turn. I am wondering if lubing it with vaseline, letting it loosen the cube for a few days, and then washing out the vaseline will work? I plan on trying it with my Rubik's brand cube.

Does anyone have any ideas on this? Has it been tried before, and if so, has it succeeded?

Idk if it will work but if you are ok with potentially screwing up the cube then go for it!

Vaseline does not loosen the cube. it makes it much more gummy. It makes it smoother but not faster.

What is the size of the screw hole in a 3x3?

Hello,

I searched the forums, but couldn't find anything about the hole size for screws in a 3x3. I am CADing a 3x3 for fun, and I want to be as exact as possible.

Thanks!

Not really, you just have to take the cube apart, pry off the center caps and unscrew the screws. There will be the center piece, screws, springs, and washers. Just switch the springs and put it back together, might want to lube it.

I measured it at around 4mm but you should probably check that!

WIT TWO 2x2 CAP POP

So my cap on one of the pieces in my wit two popped out and I can seem how to put it back in! Please help!

[Ordway Persyn]

This is the most annoying thing about the wittwo, In order to put the cap back in you must pull the cube apart and push the cap back on.

That's not true. I've removed and put the cap back onto mine without taking the cube apart.

 

[Anubis]

Haha anyway I tinkered with it and put it back in (woo!) then it popped again but I got it back in but at least I know it's not just me! Thanks! (Any tips would be helpful though)

I don't mean disassemble, I mean stretch the cube apart.

If one was to make a ball shape mod of a Ghost Cube, would it just end up as a normal 3x3 ball?
