I did a mod that made my ghost hand amazing, its already practically frictionless, and all I did was shave off some things, Ill make a youtube video soon, but I basically rounded the corners and cut off the pointy things on the core, and now its not only fast, but barely locks up

 

[MrIndianTeen]

Ghosthand 1 or 2?

 

[caseyd]

Im pretty sure its a 2

 

[MrIndianTeen]

dang it I have a ghosthand 1

 

[caseyd]

if the ghost hand one has sort of pointy corners and things, or pointy things on the core you can still do it, Ill show you how in the video, which will come soon, maybe tomorrow, but definitely by next monday

Does anyone know of a mod for a dayan+mf8 4x4 decause mine pops constenly.

I did a more exaggerated version of your 3x3 mod a long time ago on an old type A. The corner bases are almost complete spheres. I also rounded the center caps but looking at the Guhong now I see the only way that is effective is if every single edge, corner, and center where they rub are all rounded. I can rip corners completely out of it but it cuts really well. I've been using it for one hand a pretty long time now. Its nice but it's so gummy and slow because it's so old. Not to mention it's an old type A. Doesn't get creamier than that.

Here are the mods I've now done.

My GuHong was feeling 'gummy' after a lot of use. I thought that cleaning it out, lightly roughing up the internal surfaces with sandpaper, and re-lubing it would help refresh it, and it seems to have improved it a lot. I've tried just cleaning out and re-lubing before, and it didn't last long. I also switched the core out for a c4y at the same time, which also helped with the stability and feel of it.

I think I saw a mod where you sand down all the center pieces and it does reduce POP's. I'm not 100% sure about this though. If you choose to do this mod, I take no responsibility for any harm done to your cube.

[Ltsurge]

oh btw enter psedonym
another runner cuber
i run 5k in 17:23 and 1500 in somewhere around just sub 4:30

 

[dabest2500]

I have a LingYun, and accidentally ordered another one, anything I can mod on one?
Also, what effect does taking the torpedoes out of a LunHui with the Ultimate mod (lubed and 48) have?
What effect will it have if I put it in a GuHong (with izovire's mod, ultimate lubed, c4y core, springs), apart from the obvious being impossible to pop?

Thanks
