How to Solve a 6x6x6 V-Cube 6 - Part 1 - The Centers

[MrRubikscube95]

I was wondering if you will be posting a video on how to solve a vcube 7 sometime in the near future because your tutorials are easy to follow and extremely helpful. thanks

[SzuesS]

how did you get your cube to turn so nicely. Mine is so clicky and stiff when i turn it?

[LightTheCar]

Why don't you have a 7x7x7 tutorial? D: . WHY CAN'T 12 YEAR OLDS LIVE WITH A GOOD 7x7x7 TUTORIAL?

[BrokeCuber360]

DOES ANYBODY ELSE NOTICE THE LAUNDRY ON THE TABLE AT THE BACKROUND?

[tracybabez1]

this is confusing

[C3Johnny]

Is it ok, if i solve the v-cube 6 without watchin tutorial once i know how to solve a rubik's revenge?

[Cleaversthecuber]

I understand it and im GERMAN!! xD

[xxDracoBlack]

this guy is a idiot

[sunshun52]

fuck

[sunshun52]

@sunshun52 im sorry my cousin is a stupid little boy that is trying to be cool. Swearing is always not right for kids.

[andros1984]

Rubix from HELL. I would lose my mind trying to solve it....

Or rather just peel and stick the decals in the proper position and then drink a pint. Success.

[rgj1229]

i love your vids

[cuberslashskater]

just 2 let every1 know that there are now other brand 6x6's out there! Just youtube 'YJ 6x6' and 'Ghost Hand 6x6'. U can find a video on where and how 2 buy them (quite hard 2 get). I highly recommend a YJ as I have 1 and it rules. Thumbs up so every1 can see, thanks.

[zn72141]

my brain hurts =(

[sigjoe]

Will you make a 7x7 tutorial?

[kyllie1234]

Yo, you have great hair dog :)

[ct5010]

You can solve the 7x7 just at the same way!! Thumbs up so everyone can see!

[MultiMarion9]

can you make an origami ancient dragon

[MrColt93]

hey rob great tutorials! youve taught me all the cubes thanks...will you be making a 7x7 tutorial? if you are that would be EPIC. also im looking at the vcube 6 and 7 should i get white or black?

[marksman1055]

everyone, me myself and pie is good at tutorials and he has 2x2-7x7

[Tonyrock0227]

please 7x7

[Tonyrock0227]

Please 7x7 tutorial please

[qbat77]

If you called the edges on a 5x5 tredge pieces are you gna call these quadge pieces? Just wondering.

[WeeDan3]

your tutoritals are the best, i've learned 4x4, 5x5, 6x6, and 7x7 from you! haha and that center switching algorithm is soooooooooo helpful

[cheatmasterbw]

what is your best time?

[rehdkb]

can you make a v-cube 7 tuitorial?

[PurpleUkuleleGuy]

the edges on a 6x6x6 should be called quadges, and the edges on a 7x7x7 should be called quidges (quartet and quintet)

[DaTux91]

Dude, awesome video. I don't even know how to solve a 3x3 (yes I watched the video despite your warning :p) but I could easily figure out what you were doing! I totally got it! I NEVER get it when it comes to Rubik's cubes :D Thanks! I think I'll buy me one :)

[loliepop555]

how fast can you solve it though???



[gemadiktuz]

i know how to solve 3x3x3 , 4x4x4 ,5x5x5 and 6x6x6 rubic's cube but i do not have a cube O_o

[origami308]

how much money is it

[sorathefox123]

THATS IMPOSIBLE

[BlackOpsMew]

@toplak666 he is a partner

[unclesam6]

did you do any modifications to your 6x6? It seems all of the 6x6 unboxings i've seen, they move very poorly with alot of "clicking". Yours seems to move fairly well.. is that just overtime?

[warriorofguitar]

u can solve a 6x6x6 cube? damn im working on 4x4x4

[Falestorianer]

go to 00:00 and look 10seconds in his eyes without laughing!

[toplak666]

Dude, you should ask youtube for a partnership! This is awesome! It really helped me a LOT.

[3bboyfresh]

i just bought a 6x6 today!

[ribsandneck]

wered u get that?

[TheAwesomeUsername]

hmmm...got confused for a sec at 2:29 cuz i think you meant to say 2 edge center pieces per side, with 8 total. not 8 edge center pieces per side. hahaha

[renzzzuper]

thanks rob...... i just bought a cube today, i can now start ... God bless you brother....

[tgoolsby2]

Is there a method where you solve a 6x6 by making it into a 3x3, but not the way you do it in this video. instead you make a 2x2 center, 2x2 edges, and 2x2 corners, Basically making a 3x3 that is made up of 2x2 blocks.

Just wondering if solving it that way would be easier.

[tgoolsby2]

How often does a 6x6 break (as in peices popping out)

[TheHappyhalo123]

great video it helped me alot. please show me how to make videos. i just made an account so visit my channel at youtube.com/TheHappyhalo123. thanks.

[iridea71chopper]

Hey i sent you an email about you making a video for this cube and it has helped me so dang much thanks

[Richty227]

did u have to lube that cube or did it come that loose

[TheLighterDark]

@Richty227 The only way to substantially speed up your 6x6x6 is to use MyMyselfandPi's modification tutorial, which only turns it a tiny bit better and reduces the clicking noise.

With V-Cubes, there is no need for lubrication.

[1995tolis]

what did you do to make the cube tturn faster???

[dreamlifter123]

Hey Everyone this is the best 6x6 tutorial on the net. You cant find any better ones. Unless they are low quality. So yeah thanks for making good tutorials Rob

[fueledbymusic3]

Damn, I want a 6x6! Now that I got good at the 4x4 & 5x5!

[drummingxgodx2011]

Same!

[Model1337Akimbo]

Im getting a v cube 6 and 7 soon but i don't know whether to get black plastic with white stickers (like all the originals) or white plastic with black stickers (the new vcube design) which should i get?

[IEatGlu]

i have a white one and honestly i think it looks alot cooler than the black one

[Pwnzjoomom]

for some people, white plastic is confusing compared to the black and original plastic. for me, white gives me a headache!

[drummingxgodx2011]

@Model1337Akimbo I heard the black cubes are better

[Nastyeggrolls]

doesn't matter? gey 6 black with white sticker and 7 with white and black sticker

[mftzb]

and what if don't know how to solve a 5x5x5 cube? would that make a big difference???? 'cause i already have the 6x6x6 cube but i don't have the 5x5 yet...

[MetalMari0]

@mftzb

the idea is the bigger the cube the harder it is so yes you can solve a 6x6x6 without doing a 5x5x5 but it will be much harder.

[mftzb]

ok thanks!! ;)

[Rabidmonkey73]

download a virtual 5x5x5 from gabbasoft or randelshofer.

[mftzb]

cool thank you!!! :D

[DerAhlke9877]

Good video! Really!

But at 1:59 you are talking that 3u2 is to turn all 3 upper layers. That´s wrong, 3U2, with a big U, is to turn all 3 uplayers. 3u2, with little u, is just turnig the third uplayer... the uplayer, which is the nearest to the middle of the cube.

[RobH0629]

I used notation directly from the V-Cube site in this tutorial, which uses a 3u2 with a "little" u to designate a 180 degree rotation of the three up layers. I will place a link to the notation page in the video description for clarification.

[FireCuber]

the v cube website use capital for only the middle

check this out :

i love pie though ;) ;) ;)

[Burdster]

Your the man Rob.

[FirefoxFreeze]

What if you want to rotate an inner slice by itself? How would you notate that?

[Absoluvely]

I imagine you'd write it as two moves. First move three slices together, then move the two outside slices from the same side together in the other direction.

[TheYeamangamer123]

thanks for the info:D

[kevinkills1]

omg is there anything you cant do?

[duarung1982]

thanks rob... i learnd 3x3,4x4 and 5x5by just wacthing your tutorial....

[dothedrew685]

thanks so much for the tutorial! i will be ordering a 6x6 soon.

my only complaint is that this is almost too simplified--if i can solve a 5x5, i probably understand basic rubiks cube functions.

[RobH0629]

Yeah, I do agree with you on that.  I probably could have went through it a little quicker in the beginning, I tend to go into a little too much detail sometimes :-P But I do speed up the pace a bit later on. Still, once you understand the edge pairing concept, you can probably just go to Part 2 near the end, where I explain how to get the last 2 centers, which is not as intuitive. Thanks for the comment! :-)

[duarung1982]

me too... i already solve 5 x 5 rubik... now i'm moving towards to solve 6 x 6 rubik...

[Ipodtouchhjelpar]

can you make a how to on the 7x7 plz

[jagjagjag009]

my brain is melting...

[Paratroopa06]

try to solve by your self i hope you can

[MrPigpigbob]

can anyone tell me where i can get a 6x6x6 rubix cube?

thanks!

[MaxikingNimero]

i think amazon

[Paratroopa06]

V-Cubes(dot)Com

[kankuro6666]

die(dot)pl

[Paratroopa06]

i am try to help him stupid

[FireCuber]

MrPigpigbob:

Go to the V Cubes website (v-cubes(dot)com)

DO NOT buy a 6x6x6 in other website. it's maybe a knock off.

[S1CKDRIFT3R]

you talk too much

[bensvideos2009]

Thanks Rob, i managed to get the centres perfect, now to do the edges...

[Audiocrazed]

if u know how to solve a 6x6x6 u probably alerady know how O...O

[Audiocrazed]

get em from v-cubes(DOT)com

[manicbrick]

so u can use the reduction method on the v7? still, make a tutorial!!!!!!!!!!

[PEZenfuego]

Yes, if you can solve the 5x5, a v7 is cake.

[manicbrick]

thanks

[PEZenfuego]

Yeah, it is a little different, but very intuitive.

[manicbrick]

dude that sucks

[tomasfd]

Rob, congratulations your videos are simply excellent, very clear, very didactical. 5/5.

please make a tutorial for the 7x7x7 cube!

[manicbrick]

make a 7x7 tutorial please!!!

[girls2gether88]

Hi rob,

I knew how to solve the 4x4x4 from your video and I think your tutorial is quite good. Well done!

By the way, does V-cube produce any more cubes apart from 5x5x5, 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 since I can't see them in the V-cube shop, and do they ship the cubes to HK?

And also, did you solve the cubes by yourself? You are a genius.

[jeenhao92]

Hi Rob, I really need to thanks you for posting the tutorials. From 4x4 till 5x5 I all learn from you and what I want to say is your tutorial is really good and clear enough. And I've watched your 6x6 tutorial, I can fully understand what you mean by just watching one time. But the problem is just I do not own any 6x6. Yeah, you're great. I recommend his tutorial series!!!

Good job!

By the way, will you post 7x7 tutorials? I'm waiting =)

[catgoh92]

how much is this 6x6? I wish to buy it too but I'm in Malaysia..wondering where to get it..

[Paratroopa06]

i dont know, but v-cubes(dot)com DOES ship worldwide

I hope this help

V cube Collection : 65 Euros

[nivrin13]

Solved!!! i just needed helpep solving the centers

the rest ive done iy by myself

[Darkwolf2427]

heyyy are you going to make any bigger cube guides?

[XxZeldaxXXxLinkxX]

did anyone notice it is 6x6x6?

SATAN CUBE!!! :O

[temujinofwolves]

hey, great video, the best on youtube for cubes. just a quick question, do you think the v-cubes are overall better than the rubiks cubes?

[alkat93]

Thanks a lot man!

I knew how to solve the 5x5x5 but had some parity problems with the 6x6x6. Now I can solve them like a pro.

I recommend this to every1!!!!

[manicbrick]

do you absolutly HAVE to know how to solve the others?

[RobH0629]

No, I recommend that you can solve the 4x4 and 5x5, but I only require that you can solve a 3x3. This tutorial will cover how to solve the 6x6 cube in detail for centers, edges, edge parity, and last layer parity, even how to solve it as a 3x3. However, I do not teach in detail how to solve it like the 3x3 (since you should really know already). If you are unsure of how to solve the 3x3, you can check out my 3x3 tutorial on my Channel.

-Rob

[fundipisfun]

no it just fucking magicly apears in the god damn air right in front of your face

[whipslash72497]

Hey did you mod that cube?

[jswrocks1]

Hello ROBERT. I Know how to solve the

3x3 and 4x4 cubes. But I will learn how to solve the 5x5 this summer. After learning the 5x5, If I wanted to learn how to solve the 6x6, are there any newer algorithms to learn?

[UnKn0wn1o1]

Not if you correctly learn how to fix the parity errors. It'll be the same thing except on a larger scale

[jswrocks1]

Well, hey. I already memorized the parity errors on the 4x4 cube. So the only thing I need to memorize is the latest algorithm on the 5x5 cube to solve the 6x6 cube without newer algorithms, right?

[UnKn0wn1o1]

That's right. After that, you should have no problems at all solving the 6x6

[killerzofnight]

its funny how the5x5x5 has no new algorithms really

[Roggenbrot1990]

thx for the algorithm "Down Over Down Over Up Over Up Over". Now i solved a 9x9x9 an simulator

[gonzagamarian95]

booring i think u cant solve it hahaha  u fucking losser

[Jademasker08]

Trooooll!

[martialartskid101]

where can I get a 6x6x6

[16kratos16]

thank you for a very detailed and clear tutorial. 6x6x6 newbies must watch this.

OT:

kumusta kabayan? pinoy din dito. hehehehe. i ordered the cube from the v-cubes website, through paypal.

[oghie0521]

i got my 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 it arrive last friday. i ordered it on june 2 and it only took 4 days from greece to phils. byw rob thanks for your 4x4 and 5x5 tutorials i learned so fast. once youve learned these no need to get tutorial on 6x6x6 and 7x7x7 cubes. i also now have 2x2 triplets and siamese a mirror block both gold and silver and a pyraminx.

[sSupremOo]

hey ur a filipino????

im filipino too...

how you can buy at the greece????

and how much if peso????

[EpiCfAiL718]

Plz make a v-cube 7 tutorial it takes me like an hour to solve!

[holguinrod]

where can I buy those rubik 's cubes the 5x5x5 the 6x6x6, I got the 5x5x5 but is fake I want to get the original ones please. like those ones you' re using in the videos.

[Martinwarrior123]

Rob You're back!!!

[jfls23]

hey rob...how about a 7x7's tutorial?

I mean...I solved it a couple of times...but there's always this anoying parity and I have to go back a bunch of moves to evoid it to hapen again -.-'

[JellyfishPie00]

How do you remember the parity!!!?!?!?!

[Profile12345678910]

i repeat the moves,and notation,it takes time,it took me about a day for each one

[GuitarMusicPunk]

the easiest way to slove all of them is to place it in your right hand and throw it out the window :-D

[JimboJonz]

it doesn't work... i'm a lefty...

[Profile12345678910]

LMAO

[SatK999]

hey its solve not slove!!!

[54145man]

will you make a 7x7 totourial

[SexTucan]

Learn the 5x5x5 first. The 7x7x7 is the same thing but bigger, more annoying and takes more time to reduce to a 5x5x5 and then to a 3x3x3. It's good for impressing people once. After that, they will think you are a weirdo :\

[54145man]

thanks for your 5x5 totourial now i can solve it

[JimboJonz]

Compared to the video review of the V-Cube 6 and this video , it seems like the clicking mechanism is almost gone , is it long before it worns out ??

[frballz]

He might have modified to reduce clicking. A lot of people are doing that.

[zuma5278255424]

um great tut. but for last last thing, it was 2 and one, not 3 and 2. i think.

[BrainyBoy7]

Dude, Rob! Please make a 7x7x7 tutorial!

[BrainyBoy7]

Rob, are the white or black plastic v-cubes better?

[JelJam16]

whites are the best blacks suck.

[Paratroopa06]

no.. i thing that it just a same. only the colours are different (i think)

[SaltRok123]

man you are great. btw is your name rob hawksworth cus theres a guy on ebay who sells cubes just wundering if that was you

[MGWIA]

no, his name is Robert Homayoon

it says it in his channel

[SaltRok123]

cheers m8 :)

[Kuppensss]

man i really want to know where to buy a 4x4x4,

so i guess ill never be able to hold a 6x6x6Vcube in my hands x(

[SaltRok123]

im english but i bought mine from ebay. 2 4 and 5 for 20 quid

[tomasfd]

freaking sweet ! I love these cubes, I just can't wat to get my hands on a V6 and V7!!!

[jswrocks1]

Well, If you're willing to try out the V-Cube 6 and V-Cube 7, how will you react the fact that the V Cube company will be producing the V-Cube 6b, V-Cube 8, V-Cube 9, V-Cube 10, and V-Cube 11 and other puzzles too? By the way, I can solve a 3X3X3 Rubik's cube in a time between 1:00 - 1:20!

[LegoGladiater]

i cant even do a mixed up 3x3 cube!

[xXEvilGamerXx]

ty 4 tha tip =P

[aw4329]

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! My friend Sean told me about ou and you are a HUGE help!!!

[gusgusPosc]

once you know how to solve a 5x5 ad a 4x4, the rest are exactly the same. even if you only know how to solve a 4x4, with a little logic, you can develop your own method to solving the larger cubes. still, great tutorial rob.

[RobH0629]

Yes, that's true for the most part that the bigger cubes are very similar in solving methods and algorithms. However, there are some optimal and/or easier ways to solving the centers. I provide an easy algorithm in Part 2 for helping to solve the last two centers. Also, there are certain ways of pairing edges to simplify the types of parity that occurs for inner and outer edges. Thanks for watching and commenting :-)

[glaschef12]

can you make a 7x7x7 tutorial,please ps your video is very very very good i've learnd the 5x5x5 and 6x6x6 with your videos

[jglueck2003]

you're not 5 years old, r u?

[BadAssDeon]

im getting a 6x6 soon so im just watching this good vids on how to do it.... thanks rob :D

[rubiksfan2000]

would u recomend me getting this because i have the v-cube 7 but i hear that this cube pops alot is that true?

[wvb93]

if your careful and not forceful and just wanna solve it for fun and not for speed then youll be fine

[tsunade4900]

just look up (how to mod a v-cube) and it should be the first video and there is an easy way to fix the popping.

[RedRoost80]

lol all ur tutorials seem the same Rob, all require knowing a 3x3, knowing 4x4, and 5x5 O_o

[RobH0629]

Well, I don't require that people know how to solve the 4x4, and 5x5, but I do highly recommend it. Some people have solved a 5x5 cube with my tutorial without ever solving a 3x3 or 4x4. It's like riding a bike before you learn to drive a car, you don't need to, but it does help you learn the basics before trying a more advanced technique.

[RedRoost80]

ooo.

[angusthegreat]

omg, your description is so clear. now, i have some confidence. thanks.

[happyperson648]

I should be getting my 6x6 soon. I ordered it a few days ago!

[SopelUK]

good luck with it! :)

[SecRetCantTellHahA]

is the 8x8x8 out yet?

[XTheAndyX]

not yet. with hope, it'll be out by march =)

[SoftwareStudios]

lube any 3x3 with silicone spray. make sure it is 100% silicone, cause using oil (or vaseline or petroleum) can eat away at the plastic. try jig-a-loo or crc, you could probably find them at home depot.

[Kluesh]

where did u get this info btw i love yr tutorials and by the time they make a 100x100 cube u better post a tutorial

[crazyboy123252]

your how to solve rubik cube are the best videos

[Mast3rOfdisast3rwh9c]

Rob what's the bes't way lubarating the official 3x3 cube? Silicon Oil or Vaseline, I used Vaseline and it just made it worse

[iAMquiteAninja]

say, did you alter your V-cube 6 in any way to wear down the clicking mechanism or did that just happen over time?

[markcque]

The clicking mechanism isn't that strong, so you can turn a side with a bit of force without making it look like it has a clicking mechanism.

[davedayzz]

please hurry up and post the other tutorials. I can already do the centers, except for the last 2 are difficult. But i don't know how i am supposed to pair up the edge pieces when i have to deal with 4 at a time.

[Arycke]

I just posted a tutorial on this for a friend a few days ago :D Go check it out. It's the last 2 centers video (it's my most recent) :D My method is not the method I use now (it's too slow), but, it's the easiest one using only one commutator the entire time and can be used on any cube above 3x3 :)
