Would anybody happen to know the UWR for 2x2-8x8 relay?

I got 24:59.82, which is not the UWR most likely.

I'm guessing Dan Cohen could probably get about 15 minutes.

I have unassembled my shengshou 6x6 and wiped off all of the factory lube, reassembled and lubed with atomic cube lube. my cube is still slow and sluggish, how can i make my cube faster?

you probably have to loosen the cube, ss 6x6's are generally too tight.

Atomic lube sucks. Use Jig-a-loo or CRC.

Lube the core with good lube, like Lubicle and Lubix.

Super square one parity

So I'm trying to solve a Super SQ-1 but I encountered a parity where the circle on top and bottom are switched so on the top all yellow is surrounding a white circle and vice-versa for the bottom. Does anyone know an algorithm that will fix this without moving any other peices? thanks in advance!

its the same as flipping the middle on a normal sq1

/ (6, 6, 6, 6) /

/ (6, 6, 6, 6) /

Thank you so much!

I'm looking for black apoxie sculpt to do some mods.

Best place to buy it? (I found it on the site of the company that makes it, but the shipping was $12, and that's just ridiculous for a $15 package)

or should I just go with some black epoxy from the hardware store?

Can someone tell me how I can move these two spots without messing up everything else? (Like an algorithm)



Imagine the middle square on the top rows of the red and blue are switched around. How do I change that?

 

[Cubenovice]

turn top layer 45°
flip out the edges
put both edges back in correct position

 

[Deagonx]

Uhm, I'm almost brand new to this, and I only got as far as I did by watching a tutorial, and this tutorial taught me to move in the form of F for front clockwise, L for left clockwise..

I have almost no Idea what you're saying to me >_>

Is the yellow on top of both the pieces?

 

[Deagonx]

Yes, the top square is perfect, and on the opposite sides the top row fits too. But I must have made a mistake somewhere, and I got those 2 squares mixed up.

you cube is in an impossible state. you need to take it apart ant put it together correctly.

 

[Cubenovice]

What I said:

turn top layer 45°
flip out the edges (using a fingertip, pen, end of teaspoon or blunt screwdriver)
put both edges back in correct position

Now your cube is OK and can always be solved again.

Your cube has probably been taken apart (or popped or fallen) and reassembled incorrectly at some point in time.

 

[Deagonx]

Hmm. I know you guys are in the right mind set, but I think it's different because I have an off brand "magic cube"

The pieces come off, but I bought it today and it came solved.

The difference between a regular rubiks and a "magic cube" is the fact that there are no middle pieces, and so you can center your cube wherever you want.

I didn't think it would matter, but I guess I was wrong. Thanks for the help guys.

YOu have a void cube. You have encountered the wonderfull world of parity. Look up algorithms for void cube pairity.
