I Made a Fully Functional LEGO RUBIK'S CUBE!! (3x3x3)

[@puzzLEGO]

EDIT: UPDATE VIDEO ON MY CHANNEL, GO WATCH IT FAQ Q: how do I get all the pieces A: here is a pieces list, you can buy the entire cube for quite a cheap price. enjoy! rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-89284/puzzLEGO/lego-rubiks-cube-working/#details new edit: unfortunately my build got removed, i appealed so it will hopefully be there soon just go to 'buy parts' to choose how you want to buy it, I'd recommend bricklink Q: can you put it on lego ideas? A: if I can improve the design enough so it's reliable I will Q: when you scramble it by rearranging the pieces, isn't there a chance it won't be solvable A: yes, I realised this while editing. there's only 1/12 chance Q: can't you use 2x2 round plates instead of square ones? A: the circles make it too loose, I've tried this. I have an idea about how to improve that i'll show you if I make another video about this Q: is someone knocking on my door at 4:03? A: no, it's just a realistic sound effect, sorry for that

[@kirjorjos]

When you "scrambled" it by taking it apart and putting it together randomly, there's a good chance it wasn't solvable due to parity. There's edge parity and corner parity. You have to swap corners in cycles of 3 assuming no edges are swapped, you have to swap edges in pairs of 2 and cannot flip just 1 edge. All corners must be turned in sets of 3 (all clockwise or all counterclockwise) as well. Feel free to reply if you have any questions.

[@puzzLEGO]

yeah, i realised

[@misszettai7888]

A simple solution to the long scramble time may be to scramble a regular cube and then assemble this to match the layout, that way it's a legitimate scramble without taking forever

[@levistepanian5341]

So, I think I understand the issue. The core isn't as found as it should be, so considering a quality of typical Rubik cubes design, you must come up with two improvements: one, make the mechanism more circular. Two, make it springy. Typical speed cubes are loose but springy, so if you can find some perfectly sized springs it will allow for some play. Obviously corner cutting is out of the question but something to make it looser.

[@puzzLEGO]

that was a bit hard to follow, but I think that's right. when I try to turn it, sometimes pieces will jut out a bit, so either I need to make sure all the pieces line up when not turned (magnets) or I stop the jutting pieces from prohibiting turning (curved corners on the 2x2 plates)

[@TechSupportDave]

@@puzzLEGO The magnets may be another challenge because with such precise turns needed (due to the pieces not being ROUNDED), the magnets would have to be pretty strong, not only to make the cube easier to turn but also to compensate for the (potential) plastic thickness, as I am not sure if you would need to make any changes to the piece design to account for the space necessary to MOUNT the magnets into the cube pieces. In standard speedcubes, the gap between all magnets is usually less than 0.15mm of plastic, this is so that SMALLER (standard) cube magnets work normally. However, with LEGOs, technically there doesn't need to even be a gap. It would be pointless trying to make the magnets "embedded" inside of the cube pieces, as that would likely only pose additional challenges. So "mounting" the magnets to "indents" in the sides of the cube pieces may be easier, depending on whether you would want to use GLUE or not to achieve this. --- However, I am only speculating, and it is unclear as to what exactly you are against doing. For example, implementing a CLICKING MECHANISM, instead of magnets, would likely require unorthodox lego-building methods. At the least, moving parts. At most, a bunch of metal beads and tiny springs with drilled holes to house the system.

[@puzzLEGO]

@@TechSupportDave yeah magnets are a last resort. they don't need to be too strong anyway. basically I just need to allow a bit of corner cutting

try using 3x3 plate pieces for each piece of the cube. so you would end up with a 9x9 on each face of the cub, but individually having 9 tiles on each side that is a 3x3.

Looking at the design there are a lot of places where curved edges would not be possible. Also, even if you could make it all with circles it might not be any better, it would probably be too sloppy when turning. The most practical option if you really wanted to improve the turning would be to sand a small curve on each of the corners

[@puzzLEGO]

thanks! the old version was absolutely terrible, this one I can actually sell with confidence that you won't be disappointed. a couple of tips: 1. if the cube feels too tight to turn, slide the tiles on the edge pieces just a very very small amount toward the centre. this will also stabilise the 1x2 tiles from rotating 2. check for stuck pieces before turning, this is the main issue that I need to fix in this cube. if there's a stuck piece, you might have to manually unstick it otherwise the cube should work much better than the old one lol

Years ago when I was a child like 8 yrs old or smth I wanted to build a lego cube, but just a one colored cube, and not rubiks cube (flat plates on each side tho, so not just a 3x3x3 thingy out of those 2x2x2 pieces). It took me longer than I expected, about 3 hours, probably because I was a child and for children, even if they like Lego, even building a cube more complicated than they think. Next day I visited it him before we gotta go somewhere and I showerd it to him and his mom asked us if we wanna build such for him too, i just thought no way we build this in 30 minutes, when it took me 3h

7:19 the way u assembled the cube is similar to that of solving the cube using the beginner's method

[@puzzLEGO]

Yep, I use beginners method lol

[@legoworks-cg5hk]

Technically it's an octagon but close enough

Impressive! Magnetic then?

You can't just assemble the cube in a random order. Chances are it will be unsolvable.

[@puzzLEGO]

Yep, I realised

[@lancelindlelee7256]

Well, it is Lego. Solve it until the last layer then Lego it to fix.

Hands down the best LEGO tutorial creation of the decade! 👏👏👏

[@craigsparton]

I was going to post this same thing. Glad I read the comments first. I used to have an older cube that was pretty worn, and if you worked it quickly sometimes the corner cubes would flip by one and you wouldn't notice till you got to the end. Thankfully I have a much better cube now.

I like how he made a cube better than the Rubik’s brand completely out of legos in just a couple of hours.

Amazing

thanks!

3:52 Ah, I see I'm not the only one that discovered that viable piece combination... Though the creations I built, myself, were er... not for uses as practical (if you can call it that) as a Rubik's Cube...

[@ayochill8333]

Fun fact: when you put together a 3x3 randomly, there’s only a 1/12 chance it’s actually solvable. Edit: Nevermind, you knew that.

[@superpan1312]

4:03 that knock scared the sh*t out of me! I legit thought there was someone at my door

[@SuperCjplayz1206]

SAME

[@fhdang8978]

Have you thought of some of those smooth curved pieces in there to make a perfect omni circle for the inside so no matter which way you turn it it’s always a circle in the middle?

[@puzzLEGO]

I don't know which smooth curved pieces you mean, but yeah there are actually 3 circles in the cube so no matter which way you turn it it stays interlocking

[@aselagiganage4314]

@@puzzLEGO The square pieces with round edges

[@darthleberwurst1981]

For the problem with the pieces, they get stuck on each other: Wouldn't it be a lot easier to use round lego panels instead of square lego panels on the outside?

[@Valkakii.]

That Might be helpful to the cube's speed but under the colored pieces the part are square so this idea with the round Lego doesn't make sense unless PuzzLEGO decides to make better design
