Brings me back to when Dayan released cubes in different color plastic.

white cubes look sick

Chimchu2 [OP] 8 points · Feb 2023

I get the best times with that one 😆 the more colorful ones throw you off a little bit, my look ahead is not very good but they are still fun to use

Yes yes yes. I love force cube posts and have made three sets myself. These are gorgeous.

I’ve moved into new hobbies lately and haven’t added to my collection in awhile, but 4x4 forcecubes are next up on my cubing to-do list. Thanks for the reminder to get back to that.

I used some cheap Yuxin cubes to force. It was a challenge. Assembling even cubes increases the difficulty. I'm not sure if I'll go up a layer.

My next project is to make a set of McMahon cubes to trigger everyone.

McMahon cubes

These things?

Fixes_Computers 2 points · Feb 2023 · Sub-1:20 (Basic-ish)

Exactly.

Ever seen how people get stuck on The One True Color Scheme?

I've posted pictures of my Japanese scheme cubes and some commenters are wild.

threelonmusketeers 2 points · Feb 2023

Sounds like a cool project! Are you planning on doing all (30?) colour schemes?

Fixes_Computers 2 points · Feb 2023 · Sub-1:20 (Basic-ish)

Yes. Cheapest source for me appears to be cubezz.com

They have a Meilong 3C at $2.60/each in that quantity.

Chimchu2 [OP] 2 points · Feb 2023

Thanks, and no problem haha 😄

PearExisting8938 4 points · Feb 2023

Tbh, this is realy satisfiying!

Chimchu2 [OP] 2 points · Feb 2023

They are satisfying, it was a fun project 😁

Leoleonpd 3 points · Feb 2023 · Sub-12 (CFOP)

Yup, I have to do this now

Chimchu2 [OP] 2 points · Feb 2023

I wanted a blue cube, I used to have a blue dayan panshi years ago 😆 I had a green zanchi too. Was totally worth it, it was a fun project.

Leoleonpd 3 points · Feb 2023 · Sub-12 (CFOP)

What cube is this?

Chimchu2 [OP] 2 points · Feb 2023

Moyu RS3M 2020. They are only like, $8 per, but they're still great speedcubes.

Leoleonpd 2 points · Feb 2023 · Sub-12 (CFOP)

Ooh, nice!

lil_bean_guy 2 points · Sep 2023 · Sub-X (<method>)

Did you have any problems with the magnets? I have been wondering if moyu has their magnet polarity regulated. I want to do this, but it's better to be safe than sorry

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Sep 2023

I don't think I had any issues with the magnets, all the cubes felt fine. None of the magnets came loose or anything and they all feel similar.
It was mostly for fun, I don't really speedcube with them.

lil_bean_guy 2 points · Sep 2023 · Sub-X (<method>)

OK, cool thanks

MrDrBass 3 points · Feb 2023

i should make another set of force cubes just to try this i never thought about stickering them

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Feb 2023

Dayan used to release cubes like this with different color base plastic, I used to have a green zanchi that's where I got the idea

TheHatedPro020 3 points · Feb 2023

The white cube brings me back to the old days of cubing where they where still relevant

fletchro 2 points · Feb 2023

This is hard on my eyes! 🥴🫣 The contrast is so abrupt. I'm glad you like them, though.

[deleted] 2 points · Feb 2023

the red and blue look amazing

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Feb 2023

The blue one is my favorite 😁 I was surprised how much I like the yellow one too.

PyreKKKK 2 points · Feb 2023

this is so cool

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Feb 2023

Thanks 😁 I think so too. Was 100% worth it

ZachWantsToDie 2 points · Feb 2023

This just seems like having six cubes with extra steps.

Seriously though, this looks sick, nice!

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Feb 2023

Yeah it's up to each person to decide if it's worth doing, it took about 3-4 hours total. It was a fun project though it was worth it to me.

[deleted] 2 points · Feb 2023

I've always wanted to make force cubes ever since I first saw them. These look amazing!

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Feb 2023

Do it! You can get cheap cubes for 4 or 5 dollars each. It was fun, just played some YouTube videos in the background and did it one day when I had time

Chimchu2 [OP] 1 points · Mar 2023

Thanks ig haha. Honestly they have more of a point with stickers than without imo, I actually use the white and blue ones a lot.

amftl_tt 2 points · Mar 2026 · Ao20: 26.92 (4LLL), PB single: 18.27

the yellow one looks so good holy flip

[deleted] 1 points · Feb 2023

Did you sticker the sides with same-colored?
