you can use rotationless inserts. look them up

here? - http://www.speedsolving.com/forum/s...to-improve-F2L&p=566676&viewfull=1#post566676

Will watch the youtube later (cant access due to office's network filter)

Edit: and thanks Rpotts for the simple and quick algo.

Not always, of course sledgehammer has many uses for F2L

What I meant to say is to never use F or B for the basic insertions. I sometimes use sledgehammer (or double sledgehammer) for F2L depending on the angle.

Many cases have great RFU options like this one



Instead of y U' L' U L y' U R U' R' or R' U' R' U' R' U R U R you can use
(U)' F' (R U R' U') R' F R which avoids 2 rotations and is super fast.

Yes, I use this too (thanks, Ethan, by the way).

sorry for noob question with respect to Rpotts algo: don't you still have to rotate to set it up (assuming it does not end up in the position shown)

 

[Julian]

I think Rpotts posted that as a response to my saying that you should never use F/B move during F2L.

U' l' U R U' l U R'

U' l' U R U' l U R'

nice!

Try replacing the screw/spring

Will try if I can find a suitable screw somewhere... :confused:

 

[Godmil]

U' l' U R U' l U R'

Hmm, that's pretty cool. I prefer Rpotts' one for right hand, but this could be great for the left hand case (U r U’ L’ U r’ U’ L)

My question is this:

i am using ortega for 2x2 and i really don't like the alg i am using for the two adjacent on top and two adjacent on bottom. I use R2 U F2 U2 R2 U R2. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE AN ALG I MIGHT LIKE?

Swaps in front. R2 U' R2' (U2' + y) R2 U' R2' Or any other alg on the wiki

QJ 2x3x3 doesn't have springs.

Yes it does, it has 1 spring and screw to keep the 2 spindles together...

Bugger, I can't do U' because this unscrews my domino.
Removing the spring helps a bit, but it's just a matter of time and then it'll explode. :fp
And I have no other suitable screws at hand at the moment.
