YJ 4x4x4 PIN MOD

[DaijoCube]

1 more pin and I will do a review if it works or not.

If it does not work, I suggested my father that we could do some welding with the pins instead. Takes less time and is WAY more solid.

We'll see!

I'll show one of my cubing friends this, he doesn't like the clicky mechanism

same here, except I only have 2 in on purpose. I still need to glue in 2 more pins just to be safe, but it does work quite well with only 2

I did the same modification on my YJ 4x4. The at first, the pins were a pain to glue on but with Loctite and 2 days of patience, my pins never fall out. Angling the pins were the biggest pain because the pieces kept scraping them off so make sure you scrape off some of the plastic of the edges of the center pieces so the pins have somewhere to go to if the pieces get out of alignment and the pin won't fall out.

I only have 2 pins in. I solved it without any misalignment! There is plastic powder coming of the ''centers'' so that's a good thing, the ''rails'' are forming.

I'm looking for a good video converter, because my camera does .mov and Windows movie maker does not take .mov. An idea anyone?

Yep, I have multiple very good closeup photos!

Use VideoPad, no converting so no quality loss.

Can the program you are talking about have a video over another so it is showing 2 views?

Sadly no. It's not to heavy in the effects department. But it's very functional and fast.

I'm half way done editing, I think. Video will be up on my channel tonight
I had my first misalignment (I forced it to misalign and it was hard to get it back aligned.) ''Edge'' cutting is improved with this mod!

Editing is almost done. I'll be uploading it in 5 minutes or so

cool, I'm finding the it's easier to pin mod the YJ 4x4 than it is to pin mod a V-6

I use "Super" to convert video.
It's powerful and free.

I found it quite hard to do I hate to have to wait for the glue to try. I guess the best option is welding or patiente works too...

I just glued in my 3rd pin. Since I've seemed to master putting in pins on the YJ, I put the pin in at the exact same angle as the other 2 So now I just need the 4th pin and then it shouldn't ever come out of alignment!

Check this thread for tutorial

Only 2 pins prevents very well. 4 must be better, I might do it, but no now I have got to calculate the region under the curve!

Really? I had 2 pins after 2 fell out and I kept getting misalignments for my cube. In my opinion, it works well with 3 at minimum with slight misalignment but use 4 if you want to permanently have no misalignments at all.
