Best mini 3x3 ?

 

[Lchu613]

What size do you want? How mini?
They have the 42 mm, 50 mm, and 55 mm Zhanchis which are all great, and then there's the 46 mm ShengShou Linglong which is pretty good as well.

Best mini 3x3 ?

I prefer the 42mm Zhanchi. It feels nicer than the 50mm or the Shengshou, although it's too small for finger tricks. It's proper mini, not a compromise. I use it for things like blind cross practice, while travelling.

SS lingLong, 42mm dayan Zhanchi, and the mini Type c stickerless keychain.

I just learned to solve Sq-1 (with this http://thesixsides.com/rubikscube/downloads/sq1_alg_sheet.pdf ). How do I get better (like sub 1min, sub 40 etc?)

I really need help with the shapeshifting phase. Currently I'm pretty much blindly trying stuff; sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesnt.

Fun fact: Mats Valk doesnt use a Z-perm.
Is there an intuitive way to construct efficient corner 5-cycles?

Optimal corner 5-cycles are just 2 3-cycles with move cancellations. (I think, please don't kill me if I'm wrong...)

your welcome rj.

As of the new 2014 WCA rule book is there anywhere that it says that Primary plastic color cubes are banned?

Im having a small issue with Prisma puzzle timer. When I create a new category, the "tips" section does not work. When you set up a new category, it asks what kind of "tips" section you want it do display but nothing shows up? Any fix for this or anyone else experiencing same thing?

I don't think there are tips for every puzzle.

agreed, but its just a 3x3?

At this point, yes.

This answer makes no sense to me. If I create a new category, is there a way to make the tips section show for a 3x3?

If you create a new category for 3x3 you have to add tips one by one by clicking the add button next to the tip, then changing the tip again and adding that one and so on and so forth.

I loosened the screw on my 3x3 and idk if I did it right

So I loosened the screws on my Dayan Zanchi and I feel like I did something wrong. I just popped the center caps off and unscrewed a bit for each side. Now it slides better but the corner pieces are really easy to flip, is that supposed to happen or am I not supposed to loosen it at all or am I missing a step?
Thanks in advance
