Making the *Ultimate* LEGO Rubik's Cube!

[@Z3Cubing]

I couldn't help but notice that this video already has more views than OGRE Cubes' original video about his 11x11 LEGO Cube. So if you enjoyed this video, go check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHyZZ4ewjptqiM0

[@tobyandrew8821]

ok!

[@reedythepeedy8547]

Hi Z3cubing, I just got my first 9 x 9 and I don’t know how to solve it. Could you make a video on how to solve it so that me and everyone else who has a 9 x 9 can solve it?

[@lindali2972]

omg! it looks huge!

[@SimonTiger]

@@reedythepeedy8547 If you know how to solve a big cube (preferably 6x6+, but if you know how to solve a 5x5 there's only one more concept needed), it's the exact same method. If you don't know how to solve a big cube, there are lots of tutorials out there. Most of them are specifically for one size, but if you know how to solve one, you can pretty much solve them all.

[@remj3zz382]

there was already a rounded 1x2.....

I'm surprised of how well this cube turns. Never thought a 9x9 is possible let alone one that turns greatly.

[@romancourville989]

19 by 19’s exist.

[@yeet5109]

Well it’s just legos glued to the cube so it’s not surprising it turns fine. Now a 100% Lego 9x9 would be absolutely insane

[@lutimstrickshots9253]

You put so much more effort into your videos than other cubing channels. Spending more than 10 hours on a silly Lego 9x9 cube? That's insane dedication. Subscribed.

[@Chriistyness]

The easiest part is actually opening the bags of Lego

[@andyishome]

The amount of work you put into these videos is insane, you deserve 1 mil man

[@cardinalhamneggs5253]

The 1X1 is the easiest to make entirely out of LEGOs. All you need are six 2x2 tiles or plates (1 white, 1 yellow, 1 green, 1 blue, 1 red, 1 orange) and one LEGO 2x2 die piece, which comes with most LEGO board games, such as Minotaurus.

[@CfopCubing]

Factory: Spends a hour or two building a functional 9x9. Z3Cubing: Spends 10 hours gluing legos on the pieces.

[@builditwithbricks8582]

You could have used 1x1 round studs instead of normal 1x1 plates. You wouldn’t have to sand them then but I think there would be a little bit of white around the edge. You could have also used tiles instead of plates to make flat and smooth. But still, this is really cool.

[@jtcanimations1200]

They want to make it bandageable.

[@ItsTonez]

The 1×1 turns great lol

[@makayla946]

This is genuinely incredible! I've been making some very basic rubiks cube mods and it makes appreciate the effort it takes to make what you do. I am beyond impressed!

[@PG_14]

It would be so fun to see Z3 doing a fun solve challenge by bandaging the cube by placing random 3×2 lego plates!

[@Tuco-js]

Now you can put 3x3 lego plates on top of it and use it as a 3x3 :)

[@ryanbeam5951]

May have been said before, but I'm thinking it wouldn't be that hard to 3D print a 5x5, or even a 6x6 or 7x7, with cubies perfectly sized for gluing lego pieces onto. 6x6 (maaaaybe 5x5) would probably be the best point to transition from using 2x2 pieces to 1x1 pieces, while the 7x7 would be the first in the sequence to have 1x1 centers, 1x2 edges, and 2x2 corners. And as long as you're 3D printing these base puzzles, may as well modify the pieces so that the legos snap right on to them... sounds like it would be a fun project. I'd be interested in helping out with that!

[@johnandrews9433]

I’d have to wonder if consumer fdm printers have enough resolution for that to work. SLS definitely but it’s hard to have prints that don’t have very slight layer lines that are going to catch. ASA or ABS might hold up but they also might have longevity issues in something like this too. The modeling work wouldn’t be too bad but I see some definite potential roadblocks too. Designing it kinda like stickered cubes could save the sanding though.

[@ryanbeam5951]

​@@johnandrews9433 With a bit of patience, far more ambitious mechanical puzzles have already been manufactured on desktop printers. I admit that some of my own designs have run into the troubles you describe, but check out what more patient puzzle builders like Corenpuzzle and Kevin Uhrik have done!

[@vivgraves59]

Wow that's huge 🤯

[@JoeZelMusic]

I would love to see a conversion of something like the 6x6 MGC to a 4x5x6 cuboid. 3D printed extensions is the obvious solution and I can probably do that in onshape but not sure why I see cutting or grinding pieces away in some posts/resources. I always figured that the extensions should do the job w/o removing material from the original cube. Anyway just something that interests me since the 2x3x4 & 3x4x5 are beginning to bore me, the price of a 4x5x6 is around $300 and I'm pretty crafty with my 3D printing and modeling... just too chicken to destroy my nice MGC and never really did a rube project of any kind. Love your videos @Z3Cubing, keep up the great work!

[@Fauxies]

Good job sticking through that it probably was hard sanding everything!!

[@canonballrun3428]

This is a ridiculous amount of effort. But it looks amazing

[@Californ1a]

Would the yj zhilong mini 5x5 fit the 1x1 plates? Or 1mm smaller, the older shengshou 5x5 mini?

[@CoolBeanz16633]

[@lukasblazek4890]

[@Alex_192.]

Non cubers: Is it a LEGO 486x486?

[@Harmless_Blade]

Now if you place 4x4 plates on the corners, 3x4 plates on the edges, and 1 final 3x3 plate directly in the center, you can make WORLDS LARGEST LEGO 3X3...out of a bandaged 9x9

[@X-otaax]

[@mohammahdi3501]

10 years later: welcome back to Z3 cubing! we will make a lego Gigaminx!

[@2bandme763]

Awesome dedication

[@CYXXYC]

you couldve binded the entire side, then applied glue to one piece of the whole side, then pressed the whole binded side to a side of the assembled cube without caps, and then pull off the binded side, with the currently glued piece stuck onto the cube, this wouldve ensured that all pieces are perfectly aligned

[@robinliskiewitz9398]

I love it 🤩

[@Good_Hamster5674]

the fact that this cube turns better than a Rubik's brand blows my mind

[@thengm3513]

[@midorimatsuda7241]

Wow! Have you ever tried barge cement or E 6000? You would need to work in A well ventilated area, but I imagine you already are with that quantity of super glue and sanding.

[@BeatlesCuber]

Barge is more suitable for foam and leather work rather than plastic, I'm not sure about e6000, but I feel it may be too flexible for this use case.

[@midorimatsuda7241]

E6000 is epoxy so it cures rock hard, but I agree with you on the barge cement.
