6 Sided Checker Board 2x2 Pattern

Algorithm: U R F2 U R F2 R U F' R After executing this algorithm, you may notice that one corner is oriented wrong. If your cube is loose enough, you can rotate the one corner untill all six sides are checkerboards, and you're done!

2x2 PLL Algorithms

If there is one bar on the back side and two individual pieces on the left and right sides, face the bar to the left and do the algorithm: F R U R' U' F' if any other cases that have bars in them appear, face those to the left as well, unless you get the case where two (yellow, if you are color neutral) are opposite each other, you face one of the bars in front of you. It does not matter which bar. All cases that involve bars will use F R U R' U' F'. You may have to repeat R U R' U' F' a second time. If you get a case where there are no bars, all pieces in different places, face the cube so that the one yellow piece on the top face is on the up face still, but is in the bottom left corner, and do the algorithm R U R' U R U2 R' until solved. There are two of these cases, both which could appear in a solve.

New Sticker Mod this Summer - Duct Tape Cube

Hey guys, what's up, its JARCG, and today I'll be telling you about my upcoming sticker mod, the Duct Tape Cube . I was planning to do it this summer. It sounds quite easy, and I got the inspiration from RedKB. If you want to do this, all you need is a blank Rubik's Cube, six rolls of Duct Tape, and an Exacto knife. All you need to do is put the right amount of Duct Tape so that it covers each side, and cut in the ridges that make that make the cube turn with your Exacto knife. If this does not sound easy, you can click on the blue Duct Tape Cube. It's a link to the video.

Rubik's Cube Notations

Notation is the way that you turn the cube. Here are all 21 moves: R for Right L for Left D for Down U for Up F for Front B for Back M for Middle These moves are all clockwise. If you see an ' in front of a move, you turn counterclockwise: * R' L' D' U' F' B' M' Lastly, if you see a 2 in front a move you turn twice: R2 L2 D2 U2 F2 B2 M2
