magnet slot in the edge is 4x1
Thanks for letting me know!
So do you mean that there are no magnets in edges in stock magnetic version?
What are the magnets sizes in corners, slices and the middle layer?
yep, stock ver. didn't put magnets in edges
Should I use 4*1 magnets or 3*1 magnets?
Thanks a lot for crediting me! I really appreciate someone with more subs getting the mod out there to help improve people’s cubes!
No problem, thanks for making the mod! What are your thoughts on my mod?
He is CUTTING CORNERS to make the CORNER CUTTING better
Legend says if you make a pun cube master will pin your comment
I like that :D
Apparently legends are wrong :(
😭
On the bright side, you get a heart :D
Thanks
Have you modified the corners conpletely now?If yes, how does it feel and does it affect the stability or the mechanism of the cube?
I tried to cut off plastic bits with a nailclipper and the performance didn't improve at all
Squeeze the pieces to make it easier to pry the caps off. The flex will give you enough space to get a fingernail in.
EDIT: Easier way - Do a half slice and reach into the centre - the corner of the medium equator caps (the FR/BL cap) should be quite easy to pry on. Then you can run your fingernail or tool along the edge to reach the long equator caps.
Great vid! thanks! I have an X-Man volt V2 Magnetic slice, and I was wondering if I should use some of these mods on it after trying it on a crappy squan that I have. The corner cutting on it is not great. Would you recommend this? Also, how did the literal corner cutting mod work out after using it on all the corners?
Thanks!
Muy bien ya hice la modificación y quiero decir que quedó muy bien mi cubo, gracias.
Pd: thanks cube master you are amazing in SQ 1 and in the cubes in general
Sorry for my bad english 😅
De nada, me alegro de que este video haya ayudado!
When i try to slice it to the kite shape it suddenly repels eachotger how do i fix that?
Do you know where the little hook is in the edge and there’s a little Gap fill that up with something like Clay that’s not like sticky so after that then curve it off
I recently bought my yuxin square 1 and the u and d moves are too slow how can I make it fast and is this an normal issue
Try putting small amounts of light lube underneath the feet of the corners and edges or on the surface on the inside (11:47). Hopefully that works!
can I use the same size of magnet to increase the magnet strength ?
yes you can just stack any magnets on top of each other and it makes it stronger
Ok, this might seem the dumbest question ever, but i got to your video in search for an answer to it and got to see plenty more stuff i could do to my YLM SQ-1 to improve it, so totally worth it 😏
So... Where the hell do i place the washer?? 😂 I disassembled the cube in order to see what magnets it had, cause they seemed a bit weaker than desired to me, and the cube fell appart so fast i couldnt notice where it all was placed by manufacturer, and after 1h and having tried all the positions i could think of for the washer, i still cant screw it back up again! I feel so intrigued, yet so dumb at the same time!... Freakin hell, i even messed around with so many 2*2s-5*5s before too, and still cant wrap my head around this one!
Thank you all in advance!
Pretty sure the washer should go right next to the screwhead, so order would be screwhead-washer-spring.
@@CubeMasterYT pfff... Found it. The nut was inside that small hehagonal plastic and i had to really force it very hard to get tje screw to reach the nut. And its such a small contact area between them too!
I might have to try find a metal hexagonal nut tbh. I doubt that lil piece of garbage default one would hold that well over time.
Maaan, and i tried everything i could thing of! Cant believe they made it so weirdly on this cube...
Thanks a lot, mate! Hugely appreciate it! 🙏🍻 Have a wonderful day!
Does the magnets need to be on top and bottom? For the slice I mean, because I only have stronger 4x2 35 magnets. Like top on one side and bottom on the other side
That should work out fine if I am understanding you correctly, I just doubled them up because I had the magnets and wanted to make it more adjustable.
Cube Master as in use 4 slightly stronger magnets instead of 8, around the slice layer, in the top side of the front, and bottom side of the back, when sliced this should be in line with correct symmetry right? And will it work well
Sounds good :)
Cube Master ok cool thank you, I’m ordering it soon, it will be my first square 1. Very well made video and I appreciate the replies, I subbed :)
Thanks! Hope this cube suits you well :D
Should I get better at squan?
It's hard for me to enjoy solving at the moment
Beginning is definitely frustrating because it is quite different from other puzzles but keep trying, it gets better :D
@@CubeMasterYT thank you!
Any tips for getting sub 20?
How did you do it?
Sorry for the dumb question, it's just that I've been averaging low-mid 20s for many many months
I'll make a video soon on it, but the top 50 or so tips from this video are helpful: czcams.com/video/M2YX9m6ENyg/video.html. Also, feel free to send me an average of 5 to critique, with a decent angle (preferably over shoulder/headcam) and scrambles if you want any specific tips :)
@@CubeMasterYT ok, thanks!
jinseo H use roux and learn epll and do like 100 solves and you’ll be sub 20
In corner you cut much more plastic on the right side, a on the left much less. Is it good to cut this plastic in corner symmetrically, or on right much more plastic? How about cube speed after this mod? Because when you cut plastic, it will be rougher, and the friction will increase. Does this cube has a big slack after this corner cutting and Bmode? Because sq1 cannot have big looses, and also edges pops and locks in shape?
If you do use my mod, it has to be symmetrical, my piece was for demonstration purposes only. Either way, if you choose to do the mod, make sure to cut very little plastic off otherwise you can end up with problems which I address in a video I posted after this one. Speed is pretty much the exact same with the mod and unless you cut off too much plastic, and stability might get just a bit worse. So overall, the B mod helps cornercutting very little but hurts pretty much nothing in the cube, while my mod increases forward cornercutting by quite a bit (depending on how much you cut off) but ends up making it less stable. My main just has the B mod as I found my mod too time consuming and too hard to make perfect in terms of correct amount cut off and consistency, but you can choose which mods to use at your own risk :)
Ill just use the B Mod Because If I Use Your Mod mine Wil Break Off
So I just got my first yuxin square 1 and the U and D moves are slow is this supposed to be normal for square 1 cubes?
Yes, usually the slice is faster than the top and bottom layers. I think this is actually good because with the slice you are always doing R2 which is more movement than the usual U or D you do on the top or bottom layer, which means the slice needs more speed and the top and bottom layers need less of it.
How to change yellow to black
Are there any striping issues?
FIRST
Not that I know of, it seems pretty good to me
Just take note that the nut on the left side of the cube can start popping out but if you remove that long equator cap as well before adjusting the screw, you should be fine. Remember the easiest way to remove the long equator caps is to first remove the medium-sized caps (start on the rounded corners first).
dialing methods ?
Thanks! this helped
Glad to hear that :)
Does this work for the volt square 1?
can you tell me the size of the magnet you used in video pls ?
i mean the magnet was used to increase the magnet strengh
thank you
Unfortunately not because I use spare magnets and don't know their size and strength. Most magnets should work fine though, and for the edges I know it's 4x1.
@@CubeMasterYT oh. But any way, thanks :D
Do you recommend to learn full cubeshape? If yes, how do I learn it? I average 25 seconds.
I definitely think it's helpful. I cover a majority of the cases here: czcams.com/video/M2YX9m6ENyg/video.html, but if you want a place with all of the cases you can check out CSP documents or this: hem.bredband.net/_zlv_/rubiks/sq1/sq1-shape.html.
I need a little help. I bought a non magmatic ylm square-1. What magnets do I need to fully magnatize the puzzle. Also how many of them do I need. I also noticed the magnets in the core are Abit bigger. Can anyone tell me what size they are?
Sorry, but don't really know the sizes :( I think the edge are 4x1 and the corners might also be 4x1, not sure. But to be honest I think the puzzle should work pretty fine without magnets. Next time I would recommend just buying the factory magnetic one since it's pretty cheap and you don't have to do all that work yourself.
What magnets do I need to fully magnatize the puzzle?
B mod made my edge piece pop while turning fast.. So my ylm sq1 is now trash
does the puzzle strip?
are the corners supposed to repel from the core magnets?
Nope, that's just a manufacturing error (common in black/white Yuxin Square-1s) If possible, try to fix it or find replacements or if not the magnets aren't too strong so they won't make a huge impact
can you use a poster board knife?
I think that should work out fine
12:57 with subtitles
😂😂
Do you know how to take the edge magnet out I accidentally had the wrong side for mine
I'm really sorry, but I'm not sure what you can do. Maybe use a really strong magnet or like a paper clip to pull it out? If not, one edge magnet on the wrong side honestly doesn't do too much to the cube, so don't worry too much about it.
@@CubeMasterYT oh ok and it's 3 of them that's wrong I didn't pay attention to it till the middle of putting the magnets in the edges
JO cubing just take any sort of strong magnets and pull it out of there
Nice video,when you will upload my requested video. 28 days for my comp.
The goal is before the end of my break, so before May. I filmed most of the video, just need to edit and add a few more things :)
@@CubeMasterYT oh thanks for making,i appreciate your hard work,i will.be waiting for this vdo! :D
@@CubeMasterYT oh thanks for making,i appreciate your hard work,i will.be waiting for this vdo! :D
Can you sand down the dome for the B mod?
Possibly, but cutting it is honestly going to be so much easier.
Are magnets necessary in the edges? I dont have magnets yet for it
I find them helpful but they are definitely not necessary :)
I tried adding magnets to the edges yesterday and found the magnetic pull far too strong without extra magnets for the slice, so ended up removing them. Four had to be cut out of the slots (I used wire cutters) due to inconsistent variation in my cheap 4x1mm magnets. If you want to experiment with this, I'd suggest using even smaller magnets first, such as 3x1mm so you have an easier time with removing them should they not work out. Use a putty Blu Tack to hold them in place; glue shouldn't be necessary, but if you do use glue, probably something weak like PVC craft/wood glue should be sufficient since the slots are there.
would slik work for lube?
I haven't really tried it but I heard it works really well with this cube :)
@@CubeMasterYT Ok thanks!
Buen video 👍🏽
Gracias!
Great video .👍
Thanks!
Are the pieces hard to pull out and put back?
Yes, if you're tensions are not super loose
i just peel the stickers off
Another mod you can do to the yuxin square one (only after this year)
get the mgc and tighten it
how can i put back one edge on my yuxin squan
If you're a pro just push it in at the right angle, otherwise unscrew it and put it in normally
no locknut?????
Yuxin cubes don't seem to have as much of a stripping problem as Qiyi cubes, so I think a locknut isn't necessary in this puzzle and I haven't had any issue with what is already in the cube.
Do you know what locknut size will fit on this sq1?
Not sure, but I don't see a need to as it doesn't seem to strip and adding a locknut might be more annoying on this cube than the Volt due to its mechanism
@@CubeMasterYT ok thanks!
i did the corners too much.
how can i fix this?
The best thing to do is probably to keep the cube on tighter tensions than usual, so the mod does not affect the stability. If the cube really isn't usable after tightening the cube, buying a new one might be the last option on the table, which is actually what I did, since the puzzle really isn't that expensive
Great video! Im really hesitant to mod things, I botched up a shengshou pyraminx back in the day. Can you elaborate on how to mod the corner (Your mod)?
Also, is the corner in your video only modded on one side? Or is the trim only supposed to be on one side?
It should be done on both sides, I only did one side as a test. For the mod, you pretty much cut off a part of the corner torpedo to make it look like mine in the video. I just used a knife and cut it out normally. If you are hesitant to mod things, this mod might not be the best. The mod makes the forward cornercutting of the corners significantly better while sacrificing a bit stability. However, it will take a while and you can risk damaging the cube. The mod is not necessary to make the cube good, but it is helpful for people who are really inaccurate turners who would actually use this extra cornercutting.
Is Lubicle silk similar enough to lunar?
I think Silk is a bit heavier, I would prefer maybe Lubicle Speedy :)
The "bmod" isn't working for my yuxin square 1
Why? I'm planning to get into square 1
@@kyptdin6877 wdym why ?
how should I tension the cube?
Tensions vary depending on turning style. I would recommend spamming some algs on it and loosen it or tighten it depending on whether the cube feels too unstable or too tight, and you should get to a decent tension after a bit of trial and error.
cube master for 4:45 you could have used a nail clipper. 400 iq
-3 iq play
@@deadchannelmobi5010 why?
Soooooo smart
:D
How do I assembly it back?
Put the pieces on both sides on the slice like at 12:15, then tighten the cube until it feels comfortable :)
Cube Master I took me like 3 tries, but I did it!
Awesome :D
You have the same square 1 as me
Awesome!
Is to your main
This cube and the Volt are very close, it'll probably end up being my main because edges don't break but no black might need some adjusting
What about just raw Turing
The feel is a lot more light and fast compared to other Square-1s, kinda similar to the MFSQ1
Cube Master the volt v2 was a
Rail fools right
Yeah lol
