Octagon Barrel Guide, Part I: the Tools

[Ravanaboy]

I don't have a knife, so I am sanding the pieces down to the shape with sand paper. It take the blue night 40 or so seconds to cut the piece. It takes me 10 minutes a piece. WISH ME LUCK!

[TheKingLunar]

Thanks for the tip on buying a good cube, I'll have to keep that in mind next time I buy one.

[007speedcuber]

can you (in this case me) tell if it is a good or ok cube from a hex box? they only sell the hexagonal boxes here on iceland...

[aik4ever5]

awesome vidios :D

[marsel93]

your wouice(?) reminds me of Ted from How I Meet Your Mother:P

[cubswin1982]

yargh, as a woodworker, i beg you to call it what you correctly called it at first...a "miter BOX". i know you know this, but man, it grinds my ears hearing you call it "a miter". as we know, the miter is the actual angled cut, NOT the tool you use to cut it with.

end rant. cool vid.

[Battlescar2]

i work at walmart and i speedcube. y would u put the cube back? just stuff it in ur pocket. if its a shitty cube, oh well, u didnt pay for it lol

[0wlstudioz]

i just got cordless dremel from my dad so i can build alot of puzzles=)

[videogame3000000000]

omg blue knight

[TheCubeEngineer]

hey lance can i use abs plastic cement rather than apoxie

[cheeseybite123]

yo could just scan a side of the cube and print it for sticker

[FireCuber]

rubik's diamond is commonly known as cuboctahedron sir, oh ya? will you make a tutorial??

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

@FireCuber

No, it's not.

[FireCuber]

LanceTheBlueKnight:

i heard that on cubesmith and I'm not sure too

[SharkRetriver]

@FireCuber its a rhombicuboctahedron, the rainbow cube is a cuboctahedron...

pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico­volcnoconiosis is a lung disease

[shawnde1]

@FireCuber He means a Hexagonal Dipyramid

[JBoogie300]

the silver sheet in all hex packagings are silver stickers!! do not throw them out!!!

[origamidude96]

I wish you had put this up earlier. It took me 8-9 hours to cut my pieces and I ended up with two scars on my fingers.

[Kickflip1993]

very nice tutorial :)

i´ll go through all of them now :D

btw: you can use the back of CD-covers as plastic sheet too

[nichpett]

5/5

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

@CubeTalk:

Yeah I'm sure it would help... but I try to stay away from twitter and facebook and all that stuff. Social networking doesn't really interest me since I only have like 3 friends hahaha

[higuy385]

Are you left handed?

[orihow]

awsome video but wtf this ideo is a day old and has only 316 views at 6:58 pm

[zster007]

[ljrox123]

[TimeFreeze1]

3:33 that's what I do with the cubes at walmart.

[totallytywa]

'If they know anything they shouldn't be working at walmart in the first place.'

OWND TBH

[Greeneyeskater93]

=D A VID!!!

nice tricks on how to know if its a good cube

great vid

[ThieflordZ5]

LOL, 4:17...

I've been looking forward to this guide for a while.

I really want to make mods...

[labmut11891]

Instead of that tray thingy, couldn't you use a cutting board? That's flat plastic that's commonly found...

[LanceTheBlueKnight]

@labmut11891:

I dunno, I'd have to examine a cutting board before I could say. I think that cutting boards are generally very soft plastic so you don't damage your knives... so.. It's hard to say if it would be good for puzzles or not.

"STOP WORKING. Go play a video game, take a nap, or walk to the 7-11 and mix 3 flavors of slurpee together. " Love it! d-_-b

[thebackflipmaster]

[060401994]

[jlspma]

How do you check if it's a good cube if it's in a hex package?
