CrazyBadCuber's 248 Puzzle

[@redkb]

This mod is brilliant and amazing execution! Totally impressed!

[@crazybadcuber]

Thanks Kenneth! However, you haven't seen anything yet! Wait until you see what's coming up =)

[@lukewheat7693]

crazybadcuber Now that is exciting! the puzzle is very cool and that comment has me on my toes in anticipation!

[@AwesomeMattification]

crazybadcuber Dan, you are awesome!

[@Cardmaster12]

CrazyBadCuber attention to detail

[@Cardmaster12]

heh, 'tis merely a coincidence :P I just so happen to be into puzzles

[@jdlongfellow453]

anyone else want a massive 2x2 now?

[@seandubord6654]

ikr

[@vayretunes]

Get a 10x10 and solve it like a 2x2

[@rainverrev2307]

Or 3D print a 22x22 and solve that like a 2x2. And then film it.

[@exars]

Jd Longfellow I use my 4x4 as a 2x2 lolike

[@thomas_iv3634]

yeah kinda

[@critJones]

I don't think this would be too difficult to solve, but it'd definitely be fun to play with. The C4Y 3x3x6 is very similar in the way it's solved.

[@crazybadcuber]

***** No, the 3x3x6 is not similar to this puzzle in the least bit.

[@critJones]

CrazyBadCuber Now you did look up the C4Y 3x3x6 right? I understand a regular 3x3x6 isn't.

[@critJones]

This is the 3x3x6 I own. www.amazon.com/Black-3x3x6-Fully-Functional-Puzzle/dp/B00F2H6QF4

[@crazybadcuber]

+crit Jones Yes I know of that puzzle. I was the person that initiated combining those kinds of puzzles together.

[@dariusdurian1910]

+CrazyBadCuber how about the witeden 4x4 bandaged ai?

[@daniel_9778]

Is that a 10x10!?!?

[@saopy]

Read the title

[@ralphocava4130]

hahahaha... non-cuber lines... nice joke...

[@endenite]

It's a rubix triangle!

[@glitchy2377]

This is legitimately one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I've seen quite a few puzzles of all types, classes and families, But I've never seen one that works in this manner. I think it would be a brilliant puzzle to solve, albeit it'd be time consuming, because you would have to solve it as a 2x2 to work the 4x4 part out, then go through 8x8. My mind is officially blown. This makes me want to get in to modding to make my own or see what else you could do with this.

[@coolster01]

You could just use OLL algs to twist corners... Sune Antisune F R U' R' U' R U R' F' Sexy sledge Etc.

[@PollyBonanzas]

Wow. That's a beautiful puzzle. I don't think I could solve it myself, but even while scrambled, it looks good! I'd love to have one.

[@joshuadaniels3312]

You know Satan will hire you if you go to hell, you won't get tortured, he'll be like. "Yeah I'm a huge fan of yours for making that one torture device of pain and misery you made." Hell will be having to solve puzzles and this one will be for the worst people xD

[@fivedollars3052]

What if those "worst people" knew how to solve this?

[@shockpine]

+V-Cube 7 Then the owner(s) of V-Cube is very smart

[@PlasmaBoom]

You should consider making another one of these, but instead of the large 1x1 blocks, make them also 2x2 blocks like the other corners. It would be a bit easier to solve and would be less work to make as well.

[@F1nlandGaming]

But 1. It wouldent be so cool 2. And thats the thing that it has those

[@TroutOfOrder]

I would say that it wouldn't be as fun to make it easier, but if I were to get this puzzle he made or make one myself, I literally would not be able to solve it, especially at the state I am right now, which is I can solve up to a 5x5 (ish)

[@PlasmaBoom]

I have made several bandaged puzzles before. I've never solved any of them

[@Matthew_Troll]

I think there are a few puzzles that look better scrambled. This is definitely one of them . I also love show the ghost cube and megaminx look.

[@justgiz]

Wow, that thing looks even more beautiful scrambled. Great Jorb!

[@cga490]

it looks pretty cool when it's scrambled, maybe like a Picasso's paint or something like that, not sure if I would like to solve it if I ever buy it :p

[@michkanm]

Hello CBC. I just finished solving this puzzle and I want to thank you for inspiring me to make one . Of course it is not like yours ( I just glue pieces and put stickers on without filling and sanding), but it is yet very good looking. Solving is realy chalenging but in the same time great pleasure. Thanks.

[@fishwithoutwings]

That looks fantastic, especially when scrambled! Piet Mondriaan would approve, despite the extra colors.

[@IRNjuggle28]

Brilliant, brilliant idea. Wow. That's the coolest new puzzle I've seen in a long time.

[@jeremykeaton274]

Next: Crazy Bad Cuber's 2-4-8-10 puzzle? That would be awesome!

[@khalyleedwards7735]

If attempted then the 10x10 part would not be able to turn

[@jeremykeaton274]

I was thinking you could do 4 blocks of 10 like this one has 8, then 1 block of 4 and 8 and 2 solid blocks. Something like that.

[@khalyleedwards7735]

Jeremy Keaton I see what you mean but I feel that design might result in uneven cuts that won't allow good a good portion of the puzzle to scramble. It might work but I'm just not seeing it.

[@austinfinell]

it reminds me of the golden ratio. simply beautiful.

[@hterbluc]

I learned after tiling a megaminx last night that if you have sticky fingers from glue you can simply sand it off of your fingers without damaging them. Maybe it'll work for your epoxy sculpt too

[@DamnedEyez]

You should be able to match the two 4x4 corners and the 2x2 corners right away, which should make scrambling a lot easier. I might have to make a shoddy version of this someday to try it out.

[@grcubed]

Great puzzle. Looks like another addition to the "chimera" family.

[@TheUnnamedGent]

Did you consider putting the big cubies diagonally opposite across from each other so the puzzle would only be tunable as 2x2 when solved? That would have been more like a pure extension of the AI cube. The quality of your seam covering/joining is amazing. Did you paint the joined cubies with spray paint? How did you get it polished like that? I have watched your video where I think you used (boat repair?) epoxy and fibreglass dye to do that type of thing. I still have no idea how you made the glued cubies so perfectly. I recently made an AI cube out of a shengshou 4x4x4, and I'm satisfied with it, but it pales in comparison to what you've achieved here.

[@rubikstherapeutics9146]

It's the Partridge Family Bus Cube! You could put a sticker on that says "careful- nervous cuber solving"

[@federicozorrilla2144]

You have made a wonderful cube! I really hope a company will "hire" you are take your cube and mass produce it. There is a bright future for you

[@5ToNyiyiy5]

I want to see you solving it, looks amazing!

[@159kira]

Awesome puzzle, I would love to have it in my collection just to see my friends try to scramble it.

[@mentalman0110]

this is the most amazing puzzle ive ever seen!

[@KingDMSS]

That looks so awesome scrambled

[@HarrisonSW]

What's cool is that you can use it a 2x2!

[@axelrandm2262]

IamPotato ! no shit

[@blakesnipe5347]

You can use any even numbered cube as a 2x2.

[@GreenMeansGOF]

This is an awesome puzzle. I hope you an do a solve video soon. Have you solved it?

[@Seth4All]

Neat! I love Chimera-type puzzles. It looks like it won't be much more difficult than an a regular 8x8x8 Chimera, though.

[@DonaldKronos]

Just a thought.... if you were to make a and auction off a second one like it, or a slight variation, it seems to me you would probably still get a pretty decent return on your investment.

[@Kat_Haus]

This NEEDS to be mass produced

[@origamikatakana]

It looks great! If the 8×8 was propoetional, I think it would look even cooler, but it's still awesome!

[@robertfontaine3650]

This is an extremely neat mod. Evil to solve I suspect but it is visually stunning.

[@gavdev12]

Awesome puzzle, wish it was mass produced!!

[@Zalaniar]

This is a really awesome puzzle man, it looks like it would be really fun to scramble, and insanely difficult to solve!

[@lachlancummings7242]

This puzzle is amazing! Well done!

[@JasperBroadcasts]

Hey Crazybad- I have been using a beginners method for a while, and I am learning fridrich now, but I find it hard to memorize all the OLL, PLL and F2L cases. If anyone has some tips feel free to comment. FYI, I am using Dan Harris's book called Speedsolving the cube.

[@demexe4353]

I'm looking at this and I'm thinking Someone Ought to shape-mod this

[@alexisphilip]

I really like the idea, but I think it can be important to have a ShengShou 8x8

[@markonikolic1386]

This looks like the most difficult puzzle i have ever seen.

[@skooi2945]

wow! how did u made the cube? the best cube made by youtuber i had ever seen!

[@disdat5351]

Looks beautiful scrambled.

[@koeielul112]

This puzzle seems really easy to solve. Scrambling it is actually MUCH harder. Right?

[@agalagionwithacat]

You should see if you could get this mass produced

[@MofoMan2000]

Looks like a bandaged Shengshou 8x8x8. At least, that's the puzzle I'd start from. Really cool.

[@damianwilding]

Will Fowler it is

[@bonopoly7061]

Awesome- how about a speed cube 24 puzzle?

[@joshualeopard9909]

Looks really cool scrambled

[@timmartin7258]

This looks really awesome.

[@marcelr.9035]

Whoa, that's is nuts! I'm up to speed solving a 5x5 so that stuffs up my brain

[@mindgamer021]

This is a very nice puzzle. Given the money, I would like to buy this! :)

[@jasonmusic11]

i know this is an old video but it looks awesome scrambled!

[@thomas_iv3634]

That's really impressive! Some sdes look hard to turn though. How many cubes do you have?

[@EPICGUYDUDE]

Holy cow! Good luck solving that :D

[@YesNoMaybeSometimes]

Dan, I LOVE the look of this puzzle. Great job. I really think this has potential to get mass produced. How hard was it to create?

[@SilentMember]

What did you fill the puzzle with? I'm considering making a bandaged puzzle and I'm trying to figure out how to meld the pieces together.

[@jokercubing7302]

CrazyBadCuber Sticking with a similar theme to the 248, would you make any other styles like a 359?

[@PlasmaBoom]

I'm so jealous of your skills.

[@Bretonik9]

The scrambled puzzle reminds me of a Mondrian painting.

[@GordanCable]

This puzzle is just diabolical.

[@Nalyd997]

That is a really nice colour scheme is there a link to it? Also what 8x8 is that!

[@jbiasutti]

It should actually be easier to solve as the bandaging really restricts what can be done to scramble it. Of course the problem is that normal algorithms wont work and no potted solutions exist.

[@danieirsyad4932]

Good puzzle Dan.Well done

[@MAINFRAMELaboratories]

Could we get a 3510 puzzle?

[@locutus125]

Wow! Very nice puzzle and excellent job!

[@Wuwetol]

It looks like bigger version of witedens Al Bandage Cube. I think it's gr8 and hard to solve puzzle. Good job mate :)

[@osdboza]

I hope SuperAntonioVivaldi buys it:)

[@gstephane1985]

Excellent job CBC!!!

[@gavdev12]

I love the snappy comebacks in the comments, OskarPuzzle also does that. Makes for good entertainment.

[@1Yanko1]

That is just on sick puzzle. Great work! :)

[@juliancarreno8450]

A new challenge, oh I love it! Really good video

[@jacobruh310]

the shades are very nice!

[@julianrose9883]

Wow this looks awesome!

[@Sean-nh7di]

to quote Bobby Duke arts, I want that...

[@lasercrabdaniel]

Please can you make a video on how to assemble a 4x4 shengshou!

[@joelhelmick1089]

Please do a solving guide!

[@floydnewberry5954]

You did a very nice job on this puzzle. It looks really cool scrambled. You could solve this with an AI reduction strategy. Its a good strategy to know. It can be used on lots of seemingly unrelated puzzles. I use it on certain cuboids and camouflage cubes as well as AI puzzles like TomZ's Chimera. For those who stated interest in seeing how SuperAntoniovivaldi would solve a puzzle like this there's good news. I checked his channel. Look for 4x4x4 AI bandaged cube.

[@skiizo99]

Clean job, and nice idea.

[@joshbaston7452]

You should Ask Calvin to mass produce these

[@SpardaXVII]

amazing puzzle, I don't even want to know how long that would take me to solve....

[@dariusdurian1910]

This is like an 8x8 Bandaged AI but with lesser bandaged parts

[@theW1ne]

I imagine this thing so hard to solve.. But it looks really nice and very interesting.. If you gonna solve it, before you sell it, please tell us, how you did it :)

[@RedFenceAnime]

This looks like a piece of art from Piet Mondrian.

[@jeromemak5671]

Very interesting,But I think it is hard to solve. I have an idea,I think u can make a grade,Or mark for each cube (like A,B-, Or 98,85)

[@GershonBenYitzhak]

You making another one by chance?

[@alwaysrebecca4825]

That cube is awesome

[@Iromachem]

I wouldnt sell it unless i had more than 1

[@jonasrivaras528]

That thing is BEASTTTTT

[@nephildevil]

scrambled it looks like an old tv calibration screen but i guess that was something from the 80s gawd i'm getting old lol

[@heinrichthurston6961]

It's a shame we never got to see it scrambled or solved.

[@excrafter7419]

You can even play this like a 2x2

[@alexgarcia8365]

How I would come about solving it do the 8x8 first into 2x2 sections then solve the 2x2 then after that dive the 8x8 completely

[@radicalsaled5756]

Wow that's cool,l have done something similar to one of my 5x5,s l can't imagine. The difficultly looks tough

[@miningcuber6555]

You said that you were gonna sell it, how much do you want for it?

[@NKingTotoro]

This is like a much more serious AI cube.

[@bensonplays7318]

$570 wtf

[@bloky5556]

you have to remember that he took the time to hand make that cube, and there might not be many.

[@mushroomcube623]

When i saw that i was actually surprised it didn't go for more

[@ChoboUnjeon]

I figured it out and it was actually 21×21×21!

[@amirhamzah4296]

new puzzle...:) ....but this doesnt mean that we dont have to get the 2x2x2, 4x4x4 and the 8x8x8.....

[@diansyamsuwir]

you're the god of cubes! :-D

[@diansyamsuwir]

I'm talking about his collections...

[@joeycubes68]

Diyu Omkar what about superantoniovivaldi

[@alexcommesso5038]

those are called 1x1s, 2x2s, and 4x4s -.- the puzzle should be called the 124
