Do over
When you guys absolutely faceplant a solve that you know should be better, do you go back and work the same scramble a few times to try and get it right?
Also, is this actually a good training tool to help you to find more efficient solutions? Do you just experiment on your own, or use computer machine magic to help find those more efficient solutions?
Absolutely not posting because I Biffed so hard on an easy scramble that I traumatized my children and my wife asked for a divorce.
So, I got annoyed with the chipped corner that we all have on our rs3m v5 ballcore uv. I had a 2021 rs3m maglev kicking around collecting dust, so I figured I'd see if the v5's core would fit and it does! And the corner stalks were really easy to swap out as well (I suppose I could've glued magnets in the 2021 stalks, but glue and tiny magnets, ugh).
The result is honestly better than the original v5. The plastic is a touch heavier duty, and feels better and more solid than the v5 uv stuff. Cube feels snappier and, imo, more pleasant to play with. Kinda ys3m-ish with the edges smoothed off.
I want to put the center caps too, since I think they look cooler, but they fall out of the new center pieces. Any tips to snug them in there?
