Taking a 2x2 apart?

[pyrotek7x7]

I've searched and searched, but can't find out how to take the 2x2 apart. I've seen a few on how to put it back togethor, but not apart.

I want to take mine apart because it is incredibly hard to turn. Some sides are really easy, and this one side takes quite a bit of energy.

I'm scared to take it apart because I know you aren't supposed to take a corner out of the 3x3 before the edge piece or else it might break.


Oh, and this is a Junior Cube, that I put colored stickers onto, if it makes any difference.

is it a rubik or eastsheen?

Rubik.

Does Eastsheen have a Junior Cube too?

You make a 45 degree turn like the rubik 3x3 and just pull on the corners of 2 cubies in opposite directions while twisting. But if it's for speedcubing I think it's futile because it just doesn't turn too well even after lubing.

If you are afraid to take it apart it is almost impossible to put it back together. You literally have to smash the piece in.

Maybe I should just not take it apart. :\

I once had a rubik, I took apart and then a piece of the core broke... Now I'm eastsheen all the way

Are Eastsheen's easier to take apart?

Taking apart a 2x2x2 doesn't really seem to have a purpose. Lubing can be done without taking it apart. EVERYONE I know uses an Eastsheen 2x2x2 (or Rubiks Harry Potter) because they are bigger and turn better.

Eastsheen 2x2's are far superior. And If I were you, I don't know if I would take it apart, I was told never to take mine apart.

How do you take an Eastsheen apart?

This is not true. It can be disassembled, but you should have noticed by now that you just shouldn't!

It can be actually. I recommend getting in contact with huskyomega, the guy who makes the modification videos

Thanks, I should have thought of that!
