Currently in the works of making a PB sheet. Finished the 2x2 section so far. Here is a link. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hBv5gJcjDgknOAFZoKtjSVfnOe5HXzd5sbksvG_LdIo/edit?usp=sharing

I will also put it in my signature soon.

Wait we're pretty close in 4x4

 

[OtaMota]

Wait we're pretty close in 4x4

Yeah, but I am about 15 seconds off it seems. Haven't finished a week of 4x4 practice though, so I want to see how much faster I can get before Friday.

 

[Exmestify]

Wait we're pretty close in 4x4

My 4x4 dropped on the ground and popped. The core broke, and I am currently missing an internal piece

 

[OtaMota]

I am currently missing an internal piece

Found the piece

 

[OtaMota]

Next step is fixing that core tho, seems hard to super glue. Even after that, just doing regular assembly of 4x4

Lol that exact thing happened to my aoshi. I need to order a new core.
What 4x4 is it?

I see this as an opportunity to upgrade to a vin.

 

[JDAW6]

I broke my 4x4 then I fix it, my first official 4x4 solve it broke. 4x4 is weird.
