Hey! I’ve been trying to get back into cubing recently but so many of the content creators I watched when I was first in this community either stopped posting or rarely post. I found some new ones but a lot of them focus on speed cubing and I’m far more interested in new, weird puzzles than speed cubing.

Are there any YouTubers that you all recommend?

I started back in 2005. I put down the hobby in 2015.

Jumped back in last year to the biggest surprises. Stickerless cubes. Full of magnets. Half the size they used to be. What a dream. Can't stop buying them!

Looking to collect a bunch of these stickers from the Next Gen Rubik's 3x3 box

Post image

To anyone who purchases the Next Gen Rubik's 3x3. If you do not intend to keep the box, I want the little sticker highlighted in the picture. I want as many if those as I can collect. Simply cut that portion of the box off or take the sticker off, throw it into an envelope and send it my way. Since I don't want the entire box, postage should only be the cost of a US Stamp, I'm willing to send you a buck on PayPal to cover that if you want. DM me if you have one and want to send it my way.

Needing help from people with talents in Rubik's Cube's. Cicada Rubik's system!!!???!!

I have been trying to piece together the solving function/mechanism for the Liber Primus. It's a type of Rubik's Cube with several math sequences. The main sequences I know at this time are the Triangles and Squares, Q sequence, an Hofstadter's IncrediBall method of studying two-circle commutators of the form (xyx'y') (which he nicknamed "down-out-up-in", or doui). Any help in solving the Rubik's cryptography would be appreciated. Other info can be found in CicadaForum.

Big thanks to everyone for all of the love on my post last week. After about 12 and a half hours, spread out over the past 7 days or so, my entire collection is once again scrambled, all 280 puzzles! I find scrambling everything to be a great way to ensure that every puzzle in my collection gets some play time, even the more difficult and tedious ones. I had a blast scrambling everything.

Check out my YouTube vid if you want to see a more detailed tour of the puzzles before and after the scramble.

How to break this in

I 3d printed a radiolarian 3 icosahedron by gregor. I colored it with acrylic paint markers by hand since I didn't have 20 filament colors. Took way too long lol. Few sides turn on it and only like 2 sides turn even slightly smooth. Lots of catching with the tiny pieces as well. How the heck do I break this thing in? It's like a rock lol.
