My HK order took FOREVER. I got a C4U order in 4 days before!!!! I'm in the UK. Just ordered an F2 from tribox, and was wondering, how did you get a new core for it? I've had to replace my Edison core once because the screws were stripped, and it's happening again. Do you know of any core that can also be used in an Edison? I'd like a different one that doesn't strip so easily. I can't tighten the thing.

[HowtoCube]

I guess it's different since we're in the states. I suppose I should put caveats into anything I say about shipping time. I have found old type A cores and Cube4you cores to be the most universilly compatibly so I would try one of those. They are both usually available on cube4you

[xxoxia]

Oh, I've had it take 5 weeks as well. I never ordered cubes when I lived in the US, so I can't compare. I have tried a C4U core in my Edison, but I used the Edison screws with it. When put together, it was seriously way too tight, even unscrewed all the way. The last piece wouldn't even go in. It was almost like the core was too small. I just don't understand what would make it different except it just being smaller slightly. Takafumi is sending me 2 more cores though, so I'll have extra.

[xxoxia]

Oh, and you never told me how you got another core for your F2. Where do you get those? I haven't seen them for sale by themselves.

[HowtoCube]

i didn't, I replaced it with the orange cube4you core

[animelova11]

what song is that in the beginning?

[HowtoCube]

The REAL rubiks cube Rap as Performed by D. Check out our channel son!

[BrosthatCube]

My favorite cube to use is a JSK clone from c4u. You guys should pick one up and do a review on it.

[HowtoCube]

I have the actual JSK which, I really like with some hardware adjustments. But you're right that's another cube we need to review.

We're torn on going back to do a better job with the cubes we first reviewed.  I'd like to take back some of the stuff we said but we don't want to sacrifice the view count!

[BrosthatCube]

Just keep doin what you do.. It'd be cool too if you reviewed like megaminx 4x4 2x2 5x5 stuff like that ya know

[Yudai85]

You should also mention that when you buy a DIY version you have to cap the whole thing.... when you don't cap it and just assemble it you have almost a ful hollow cube. (nothing special but great fun) in my opinion... this beats my Type C and A 1st model BY FAR. the feeling of this cube is amazing... even though it locks up more and cuts corners less then my Type A the nice feeling and it speed makes this my main cube

[HowtoCube]

thanks for the input

[imsmarturnot1234]

where do you get it????????

[whitelynx86]

Where to buy?

Great review! I own a number of these and feel that they are the best around, IMHO. Good consistencies, even across the different colors they come in, but I personally find the whites better (like JB's blue Type F?). Didn't notice much differences using different lubes. Creamy lube from Mefferts makes it sound a lot less crispy, but that's just it. Stickers still excellent after 4 mths, so didn't have to swap into Cubesmith's. Takes a lot of beating, even at very loose tensions, before it pops.

[CubeFan4848]

When are you going to make a C ll D ll and F ll videos

[HowtoCube]

We are shooting F II and D II Sunday. Then there is post production which takes anywhere from three days to a week or more depending on several factors including my 2 year old.

[andyhthedrummer]

looks like diansheng type f ii and type a ii had a baby

[HowtoCube]

That's a pretty accurate statement.

[andyhthedrummer]

are you guys planning on making a type fii review vid? i got mine a couple days ago and like it but i find the edge caps pop alot and that they only turn amazing when rather loose

[joemanyeah666]

do cubes from hknowstore come with stickers?

[zster007]

ya they do. two sets.

[DnKenneth]

DO NOT GET THE TYPE A III. It never pops which is good but after assembling mine and play around with it for 3 weeks, it broke....

[samchoochiu]

tai yan means sun

[iasimp1997]

Hey guys. Great review! Five stars for showing the internal design. That's what I look for in every review.

I have some video requests. If you happen to have a type A5, then could you guys do a review on it? Also, I've looked on your channel for an average video. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't see one. So, if you have the cube, a type A5 review would be great, and an average vid would be cool.

5/5

[NicholasAmCuben]

I heard that F II and Taiyan are the same.. Is that right?

[HowtoCube]

completely untrue. The edge pieces have a similar design, but that is it. Stay tuned for a F II review in the next few weeks.

[jallenf6]

could u do a review on the cube4you speedcube vs. whichever is your favorite cube? just state which one is better, or make it a side note in one of your other videos because ill be tuning in for each one! subscribed already, great videos! also impressed that youve got badmephisto commenting!!

[HowtoCube]

Rocco's favorite is a Cube4you DIY I think, although he likes the D II as well... but you do have a point we probably need to have a barometer in the videos that shows how the cube stacks up against a control

[jallenf6]

thankyou so much, and that would be very helpful, and wow, now i feel intelligent!

[richogem]

the weight is like an F

the mach is like an A2

and it has enough plastic

ive got it from users/camcuber

i didnt get a white logo sticker though...

and my cutting is way better than your's

[iNomNomNano]

Third!

[b1e8a2n0]

I got this cube but in white. Can't get my hands on any CRC or Jig-A-Loo (I'm in the UK) so I used some silicone called Tableau Dry Lube. It works really well. I agree about the corner cutting. But as a whole this is the best cube I have.

[Angel8795]

@b1e8a2n0 Im in UK thats the brand i use, only stuff i can find. tis pretty good i still wonder what jigaloo would be like

[badmephisto]

SECOND!!!!

[UberCuba]

@badmephisto

lol, badmephisto, please make sum coding videos.

[HowtoCube]

Badmephisto! We are having Canadian weather down in Tulsa, its freezing! Any new cube videos we should watch from you or others?

-Roc

[zster007]

You now what's funny. If anyone else would have said second, they would have4 thumbs downs, not 2 thumbs up.

[HowtoCube]

His sarcasm makes me feel sunshiny....

JB

[badmephisto]

hahaha! that's weird :D Meh I don't know why people give them thumbs down, I think its pretty hilarious :) but I know many people disagree. and @HowToCube no plans for videos right now, nope.
