V6 / V-Cube 6x6x6 Mod thread

[luke1984]

The V-6 is pretty awful out of the box (for speedcubers al least), so yes, you should mod it. I personally never liked the pin mod though, but the other parts of the Pi-Mod make it much, much better.

Vcube 6x6 pins

Is there any other way to keep the inner layer in allignment other than pins. The super glue never holds and your bound to have them fall out at one point or another.

clean out all the glue thats in there when the pins fall out and use stronger glue. or get a shengshou 6x6

Can try soldering them in, but MM&P had a reason to use super glue, not sure why. Gotta rewatch his vids.

I soldered mine. You have to use a low wattage iron and be careful not to melt the core.

Mine also didn't stay at first. This is how I made them stay: I roughened both the screws and the pins (using metal file/ sand paper) and then used normal super glue. I waited three days so it could dry. That was ~years ago and no pins fell out since

I soldered 2 pins on one cube, and glued in 2, the glued in ones fell off eventually and are somewhere in the cube probably.
It turns amazing. Just gotta be careful on the core, make sure it's a bit loose not to habe the pin and scew turn., not too much.
