In this video, I show you how to easily solve the original Rubik's Cube Puzzle.
ALGORITHMS

***First Layer***
White Cross
Flip Edge: F' U L' U'
Corners
White on Left: D' R' D R
White on Right: R' D' R
White on Bottom: R' 2D R D

***Middle Layer***
Edge Belongs on the Left: U' L' U L U F U' F'
Edge Belongs on the Right: U R U' R' U' F' U F

***Last Layer***
Getting the Cross
From Dot: (Hold dot in any position): F R U R' U' F'
From L (Hold L in top left): F R U R' U' F
From Bar (Hold bar horizontally): F R U R' U' F'

Positioning the Cross
Two colors are across from each other
(Hold so one of the colors faces you): R U R' U R 2U R'
Two colors are adjacent to each other
(Hold so one of the colors is to your right and the other is in the back):
R U R' U R 2U R' U

Positioning Corners
If NO corners are positioned: U R U' L' U R' U' L
Hold the solved corner in the top right: U R U' L' U R' U' L
(Repeat until all four corners are positioned correctly)

Orienting Corners (FINAL STEP!!!)
Hold unsolved corners in the top right corner: R' D' R D
(Repeat until all four corners are oriented correctly)
