    Hello! thank you for the great tutorial!
    I already knew how to switch edges because I unboxed with a friend of mine his sq-1, but I didnt knew how to swith corners. Thank you for great video!

    You can also switch black and white by switching the equator caps and solving the puzzle

      You can take off the caps on the side of the cube where the screw system is and switch their places you might have to flip the caps around to get them in but once they are in you can flip the top and bottom colors of the cube

    thanks for the tutorial! however my squan popped one day and when i tried to fix it the screw just stopped turning. i think its because the blue piece isnt turning with the screw. i cant tighten it and i have to have very low tps to solve now, and i really dont want to buy another one. 😕 have any ideas to fix this?

  • @kaz8297
    @kaz8297 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great vid. I wanted to see this vid to see how to switch the caps, since I won’t be setting up my mgc, I decided to get a premium set up one.
    Also, unrelated question, should I get the mystic wrm or the regular 11m duo. Idk which one I like more, as my only other cubes is an old valk m (that I set up, to my knowledge, pretty well) and an rs3m. I like both equally.

    • @CubeMasterYT
      @CubeMasterYT  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I never tried the 11M but the Mystic WRM is pretty good. But I use a budget cube over that one so I'm not really sure which to recommend lol. Maybe check out some reviews or stick with a cheaper cube :)
