Fold two sides of the square. Then just pull off the 2 tiles on both side that are on others.. If they don't fold nicely then turn two sides (these what you turned for the first) on the other side.

a quick diagram:

A-B-C-D
E-0-0-F
G-0-0-H
I-J-K-L

0 isn't a tile.

Hold the A-D line and I-L line and fold them so that they are on top of/under E-F and G-H. Then pull E-G and F-H on the sides. Then you should have 2x6..

Is my avatar weird?

Maplestory is slightly fun, but your avatar is slightly random and I don't see how MS is related to cubing, so you can call it weird I guess

If I may ask, is that an actual screenshot of a character of yours?

Actually, I was asking about a different avatar I had at the time of posting.(See attachment.)

No, thats not my real my guy.

Once the pins on a v-6 have made their grooves do they have to stay in?

...Yes, the grooves don't do anything by themselves. The pins basically hold the center pieces to the mechanism.

In pestvic's method for modding a storebought into a diy, do you literally just cut the centers off with a saw? Where exactly do you cut?

You cut the rivet. Not the core, not the center. The rivet.

For some reason, my times have been TERRIBLE
Cross:6
F2L:11
OLL:5
PLL:5
Those aren't exact times. Those are times without pausing. IOW, I timed myself for each one of them.
How should I improve?

I would say work on cross mostly, and LL too.

Do an alg over and over and over (literally 100x each day). I do this sometimes and it helps a lot.

Use that.

Improve cross. My F2L is ~10 and I have ~3-4 cross.

what do i think when solving the cross?

1] This goes here, so this will go here, so i turn this, then turn this.. ect
2] U R' F2 L' R' D2

Whichever you prefer.

I like the first one, it processes faster in my head.

First one for sure. Second one is easier to screw up, you can't do it as fast, because you're trying not to screw-up, and it's harder to lookahead to f2l.

However, just try both for awhile, you may feel I'm wrong. See what suits you.
