I saw something on 60 minutes quite a few months ago about how to solve a cube and I went online to look at the steps they posted. All in all after I learned the steps my fastest time was around 1:45. Haven't touched a cube since then though.

I use neither.

 

I use lube.

 

Yup...that is right....lube. Well it is actually called Cube Lube....LOL. I bought the stuff anf my DIY Cube from a guy out in Hawaii. He's a really quick shipper.

 

The Cube Lube comes in a syringe and is a silicone-based lube. I made the mistake of thinking it was a thick substance when it is actually a pretty thin one so a little goes a LONG way. One syringe would last about 10-12 uses if I hadn't squirted out too much and made it run out all the openings of my cube but it was pretty easy to clean up.

 

For those of you that have a dirty mind....stop laughing....LOL.

 

 

 

 

God dude. Get control of yourself. Only a couple of months ago you bought your first cube and now you are taking your cube apart , idolizing Jessica Fridrich, and lubing your cube daily. I think you may need to seek some help for cube-a-holics. I wish you the best.

In the words of Larry The Cable Guy.....I don't care who you, that's funny right there.

 

LOL.

 

As far as idolizing Jessica Fridrich, the only reason why I am trying to learn all the algorithms in her method is because there are only about 50-75 for me to remember compared to other methods where you have to learn well into the triple digits.

 

Oh and I don't lube my cube daily, I've only done that once.....which reminds me, I need to do i again....my cube is getting too tight. LOL.

You dirty mind you! LOL.

 

I didn't realize what I had posted until just a few seconds ago. LOL. Or how the mind wonders. LOL.

Back in the day(25 years ago or so), I could consistently solve the cube in well under a minute. But that was then...

I just beat my previous record time by about 11.26 seconds.

 

I decided to do a print screen of my newest time so here it is below:

Here is my new personal best time.

 

I've gotten under one minute at least four or five times today.
