A 3x3x3 one takes me long enough, but I'll have to give it a go, does anyone know where to buy them from?

They are kinda hard to find. Walmart had the 4x4x4. I got the 5x5x5 one from the mall. But other then that I have not seen them since.

I got one this past Christmas and managed to solve it using a guide video. It was difficult at first, but I eventually got it. Now I can do about half of it on my own before resorting to the video to learn the correct turning patterns.

There is actually a strategy that you can learn to do a normal rubiks cube pretty easily, for extra fun go look up 4d rubik cube on google and try and solve a random puzzle of that and its absolutely insane.

I CAN!!! I'm not gonna set any records, and sometimes I gotta check for tips online, but I can do it. Most people I have given mine to to try cant even do it with the instruction manual. So I feel pretty cool, (even though I know I'm not)

I used to solve a 3x3x3 all the time, except that was last year and i can only do the first 2 layers. Its not as complicated as it seems, as you only need to remember 6-7 algorithms to do a basic 3x3x3 in around 2-3mins

When I was a kid my brother would peel the colored stickers off instead. Then place them altogether. EVentually the stickers came off for good and we had to throw it away.

i say a guy im my religion class do it right in front of me in about 4 min. There must be some special, mathematical way to do them because he was barely even looking at the cube when he was doing it and i mixed the thing up myself.

My friend carries around a rubix cube virtually everywhere he goes; he likes solving it in a minute or so to impress passerbys. His record (which I saw myself) was 37.5 seconds... I can't even solve it unless I'm given a guide.

There is an algorithm you can find online that you can use to solve a Rubik's Cube. Same with Sudoku.

Once you learn the pattern of solving it hear it becomes rediculously easy.

At least my friend tells me this, I have never made an attempt to solve one.

It was a huge fad at my school last year. A lot of people could do it in about a minute.

I can solve one in 30 seconds. There is currently a trend to try and beat me at school.

I did it once, on my way back from St. Louis, I sat with it for a couple hours with my iPod in. I got it, but have no idea how I did it.

I can do like one side :lol:, but I know a bunch of people who can do most, if not all, of one. It seems to be some weird fad going around my school, it's died down lately though.

yes, my fastest time was 1:40, there is a really beginner way to learn how to do it, if you can master it, your fastest time can be near 1:20
