Harry has made a new clock tutorial for our YouTube channel, now we have a clock that actually performs well out of the box, why not learn? https://speedcubing.org/products/qiyi-magnetic-clock

So, I have not broken any personal bests but I am really starting to like the MGC 7x7x7, it is fast and reasonably smooth, it feels like what the AoFu GTSM tried to achieve but failed. I have been averaging relatively consistently in the 2:45 range which is pretty normal for me, I will need to test it against the spark a bit to fully decide whether it will be my main 7x7x7 but it currently seems very promising, I hope to get a youtube review out in the next few days confirming my decision. I lubricated it with Angstrom...

The yuxin little magic 3x3 was a very popular budget 3x3 that many stores have made magnetic versions of that many Cubers have liked a lot, now yuxin have finally released a factory magnetic version which will hopefully compete against the RS3M 2020 and QiYi MS. I am rather sceptical as to how good it is likely to be as it is a pretty old cube and I personally prefer cubes such as the meilong in the non-magnetic market. It remains to be seen whether they make any mechanism updates.

We are very happy to now have over 300 subscribers on our youtube channel, and for that reason we are doing a giveaway! So if you want to buy more cubes and other twisty puzzles you might as well enter.

The AoHun WRM has been quite a disappointing megaminx, certainly not living up to the expectations speedcubers had of it based on the rest of the WRM line, in this video I wanted to look at the potential reasons for that. It appears to come down to the torpedoes, torpedoes are used to hold edges more firmly in place between the corners, while modern speedcubes often extend them to also lock them in between the centres too. the problem is that they slow the cube down slightly, we then have to look at whether they are worth it, megaminxes do...
