42 STM. If only that long CMLL would be shorter! Everything else is pretty neat.

Try to make FB and SB shorter. 11 moves on FB is too long. My solution on the same blocks

I haven't done one of these for a while so:

LSE sucks for FMC even in STM because you execute so fast but it's actually a lot of moves...
