As an aside, the point at 4:10 also explains why all the world record cubes for a while now have been odd-layered. Because making an even-layered cube necessitates that you have a working design for an odd-layered cube one degree higher. Why make a 16x16 when it requires that you know how to make a 17x17?
@yami_the_witch3 жыл бұрын
There are also people competing to create the largest even layer cubes. While a bigger number is alluring hiding those center layer in higher order cubes get's increasingly difficult. So it's a feat worth of accolade in it's own right.

J Perm, Thank you so much for explaining this. I remember when Rubik's incorporated cane out and said that the 6x6x6 was practically impossible, and the 7x7x7 was theoretically impossible, so quit asking us. These cubes won't be coming out any time soon. And we waited a quarter of a century! There was another wait between the V-Cube 7x7x7 and the Shengshou 8x8x8, but not as long. This is hard for current cubers to understand when it feels like there is a new larger cube every year. My only complaint about this excellent video is you didn't mention V-Cube's original solution, pillowing. It was Shengshou that made the outside layers larger. And I believe it was Shengshou that had the spherical core. Anyway, thanks for this excellent video!

I had an early 4x4 and it was not like yours inside at all. Inside there was a ball with 3 tee shaped tracks in which the edges ran and the corners ran on the edges. there was some clever shenanigans with blocks in the the tracks that made the ball maintain the proper orientation and not get twisted about one axis relative to the cubes as you demonstrated with the 6x6. It was vey difficult to disassemble and reassemble.

This video and video of disassembling a 4x4 led me to a q if it is possible to create a 6x6 with a sphere core as the one in a rubik's 4x4, but more commonly used in a 2x2. And I already started working on it but first I want to replicate the 2x2 then the 4x4 and then finally try to aply the same sphere core to a 6x6. Now I don't think it's possible but I would love to know and if I get around to do so I'll have an answer. Another crazy idea is to make the corner and edge pieces lock to the surrounding center pieces when it turns. Or make a bigger 6x6 with thin but strong leg. Or magnets with high chance of popping out.

The original 4x4x4 Rubik's Revenge design uses a spherical core, where the center pieces have long thin and somewhat fragile legs to slide in slots in the spherical core. There are no hidden middle layers on the Revenge. The original 5x5x5 Professor's cube design was the first to use a cube in a cube core. That led to the later Eastsheen 4x4x4 design also using a 5x5x5 like cube in a cube core. The Wikipedia article includes images of Revenge and Eastsheen internals.

The 6x6 is the crossover point. There is just about enough space for the mechanism to fit, but it won't be as durable. Therefore V Cube decided that it had to be all of the same size since that was the standard back then, but that caused issues, so these days every 6x6 has big corners. The V Cube doesn't really overcome the corner problem, it just is barely possible with a 6x6.

Well, if you only consider one center, then there should be 24 (4!) different ways to arrange it, since any center piece can go anywhere. If you take into account all of the centers, then, there are 24 possibilites for each of them, meaning there are 24^6 (191,102,976) different solved states. The interesting thing about this is that the same logic applies to even bigger cubes, since they're all sort of laid out in "classes" like this: (here's an 8x8 for example) | A | B | C | D | F | A | | F | G | H | J | G | B | | D | J | K | K | H | C | | C | H | K | K | J | D | | B | G | J | H | G | F | | A | F | D | C | B | A | Any two pieces in the same "Class" can be swapped without unsolving the cube, and notice! There are always 4 of each class. Since the number of pieces on a cube of size 2n is equal to (2n - 2)^2, that means that the number of classes is equal to ((2n - 2)^2)/4. (You can do a bit of simplification to get the formula k = (n - 1)^2, where k is the number of piece classes) Therefore, for any cube of size 2n, there are 24^(6 * (n-1)^2) different solved states, which is interesting because it means the number of solved states is always equal to a power of 24.

@Kshitiz Pokhrel Craaap you're right, I realized that a while ago. Not really sure how the math for that one would work out.

0:51 was completely different from the 2:30 6x6, how was the first 6x6 was holding all corners when the corners were not even bigger than the other pieces I slowed it down and it was super confusing🤨
@DanTheStripe3 жыл бұрын
The corners ARE bigger, it's very slight though.

But on the V Cube 6 shown @5:17 all pieces have the same size. The corner and edge pieces are not bigger than the rest. So --> ?

If you look very closely, the outer layers are ever so slightly larger, but I can see what you mean.

you: 6x6 Rubik's cube is impossible KZbinrs: I just solve 15x15. Am I a joke of you? :/
@Shining4Dawn2 жыл бұрын
I have to mention that although the 6x6x6 has to have larger corners and edges, the V-cube 6 hides that fact very well. It seems like V-cube made their corners larger by the smallest margin possible to make the cube seem like it's proportional. The difference is even less noticeable on the pillowed version. It's interesting that they would make this choice based on aesthetics.

Had to dig out my cube and check because I never noticed the size difference before, it is a very small difference.
@sagnikdas6049 Жыл бұрын
I was wondering about that. He mentioned how impractical it is for a proportionate 6x6 but we have the v cube 6. That was so confusing till I found your comment

I thought I remembered the original V6 and V7 being pillowed in order to solve the corner problem, am I misremembering? Either way I think it would be worth noting that pillowing is one option instead of making the outermost layers thicker.

I remember when "v-cubes" were THE thing. Now there's a gazillion off-brand cubes that are superior to those in every single way. How time flies.

Maybe a bit of a misleading/clickbaity title and thumbnail, but a good video to watch. Used to be a cuber and got the VCube 6x6 and 7x7 when they came out, so it was a nice throwback to see this history told again!

I looked at the thumbnail and counted the area of the cube to see what was wrong with the cube. Didn’t see anything wrong. After watching the vid it made sense.
