📼Video Summary:
The Magic Cube was invented by Ernő Rubik in 1974. Then in the 1980s it was renamed to the Rubik's Cube. The Speed Cube is a special version of the Rubik's Cube that is meant to be solved very quickly. Those that try to solve it quickly are called "Speed Cubers". They use tricks like Corner Cutting and Algorithms to eliminate time. The most popular method for solving the cube is CFOP which has four steps: Cross, F2L (First 2 Layers), OLL (Orientation of Last Layer), and PLL (Permutation of Last Layer). Other methods for solving the cube are Roux, ZZ, and Petrus. Inside the speed cube you'll find the core made up of six center pieces, and then the twenty "cubies" which consist of 12 edge pieces and 8 corner pieces. The Tension System is made of 6 springs inside the Center pieces. Some versions of the cube magnets inside the core - using MagLev technology.

Jared, I am thoroughly impressed by this video. As a speedcuber, I can confirm that you clearly put a lot of research into speedcubing and got all the facts right. Your animation skills are also immaculate, as I can recognize the model of speedcube in the video! Well done!
Thanks Maxence - I'm happy to know you approve!
Best goddamn channel on yt 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
im also a speedcuber this vid is cool
I can agree with all of this as well as a speedcuber myself!
@@JaredOwen what does the answer they require look like?
Watching this video is a blast from the past of your first Rubik's Cube video!! You've come so far since then. Awesome animation and explanation for the algorithm.
I actually dismantled a Rubik’s cube back in the 80s and that’s how I discovered how it worked…

Wow, this video is tremendous. The animation isn't just clear and accurate, the narration is concise, educational and on-point as well. Truly a masterclass in how to introduce and explain a complicated topic. What a job well done.
Thank you!
Dude, I'm pretty impressed by this video as a speedcuber. You got everything spot on, and even used the moyu screwdriver! You explained how we solve it very well, and I'm sure a beginner can understand it. What a massive upgrade from your previous Rubik's Cube video!
Thanks Ayden😀
fr, i have so many moyu screwdriver that i recognized it instantly

I am a speedcuber that averages around 6 seconds, and this video is probably the first video I've seen that explains how the cube functions so well! Great job, Jared.
Same!
DAMN YOURE FAST. what method are you using? cfop?
@@_cablewastaken He is top cuber
the fact that you managed to animate the cube flexing and corner cutting is extremely impressive
Thank you so much for this video! As a cuber, it makes me happy :)

@@stumblegaming8888wow, didnt know jared owen viewers actually is way better than my times
I didn't know how much engineering went into these cubes. It's like the Rubix's Cube equivalent to a race car.
It has been an evolution by hundreds of people over decades. Seriously.
You'll be surprised. He didn't even present all of it (yet). There are cubes with yet more magnets and more customizability features than what is shown here. And I think it will be overboard if he started presenting Smartcubes coz they're still not as mature yet.
the x really triggers me as a speedcuber lol
it's really not that deep😂
I'm a simple fan, I see a Jared Owen video and I like it instantly cause I know it's gonna be good! Thanks for all the work you put into these animations.

@@gk_B Why do you want that? 🤨
Your animations are a great motivator for me to get better at learning Blender, and I enjoy learning about how the items work in the process. Feel free to take a break with more smaller items if you need, we'll enjoy them just the same.
This was one of the best KZhead videos I've ever seen: the sponsor perfectly matched the subject of the video, the sponsorship segment was seamlessly integrated, the animation was top-notch, and I ended up learning more than I expected (how to solve a Rubik's Cube, not just how it's built).
This is brilliant, the animations are superb and I can say as a cuber that it's all very accurate, a ton of work went into this, well done!
You consistently have the highest quality animated videos, which, combined with your knowledge and research, is the most enjoyable way to understand something!
I'm an old school speedcuber and one inaccuracy is that Rubik's brand cubes have a near identical spring tension system in their core that can be adjusted in the same way. Loosening it to allow corner cutting was common. Filing down the spring ends and smoothing the screw threads were also common mods. I am amazed by all the new innovations! The "MagLev" spring was totally my idea like 20 years ago (and probably other people's too), but I never really had the resources to prototype it. This is the first I've heard of it! Besides the friction advantages, the force is now quadratic with distance instead of linear which I thought would have real advantages! Off to look into it more now...
Jared, Ever since i saw your videos I am deeply impressed at your animations and how you explained them. Nice Work Jared,keep improving.
I love your videos as well as everyone in the comments so far. I felt great seeing a youtuber I like making a video with a program I love (and have open on my computer as I type) about a topic that I'm getting better and better in!
One of the most sophisticated video about Rubik's Cube ever. I am grateful as a speedcuber for your effort!
Glad I could help😀
This is a speed cube, and this is a fantastic channel. Awesome job Jared and greetings from Brazil.
Thanks Montiero!
What a thorough explanation. 10/10 will use your video as standard guide to hook new cubers. What a surprise with that sponsor, this gotta be the best partnership they invest.
It is great to see an accurate and well researched video on the workings of speedcubes
As a slow speed cuber, I can confirm that this is how it works. Like I have the exact cube used in this
"slow speed cuber" relatable 💀
May I join your "slow speed cuber" club? I have a lot of experience!
Nice! I bought the spring and maglev version for this video. I can confirm that the Maglev version is much better
@@JaredOwen I have one with the alignment magnets, but it has a slightly different spring tensioning mechansim. You don't have to change the screw setting, but it has a sort of ratcheted plastic holder around the spring with teeth set at different heights. Like in a bic pen, but with like 8 stop points instead of just 2.
Nice video! I myself learned solving one of those with the LBL (Layer by Layer) technique around 15 years ago. you start out the same as here, but on the last layer, you start by making a yellow cross. Then, you bring the cross in the right position, so that only the edge pieces are random. You then bring the edge pieces in the right place and at the end, you just finish by orienting the edge pieces correctly. It is not the fastest method, but it only requires to learn 7 algorithms, so it is easier if you don't wanna learn a s**t ton of algorithms. Always good fun for impressing friends and also not too hard to learn.
I wanted to keep things simple because most people that watch these videos are going to be "non-cubers" - hopefully I found the right balance!
this is a good method for beginners but if you want to be faster then you should work on knowing full oll and full pll aswell as advanced cross and f2l full pll is about 21 algorithms but they are all easy to remember full oll is 57 algorithms which makes it harder to learn out of the two a good way to learn these algorithms is by remembering patterns in the algorithms such as triggers or parts of other algorithms
Wait if your first step of the last layer if solving the cross why would you need to orient the edges?
@@JaredOwen If you wanted this you should have started with the beginners method, instead of going straight into the cfop. (Same as you said it, but much less confusing name lol)
@@blooberry999 he said 15 years ago, pretty sure they know full cfop by now
Always impressed by how much detail you put in your vidoes while remaining entertaining.
Just found your channel from your video of how the Titanic works. I was mind blown at how well you explained that. Also loved your vid about the Crew Dragon. Please make a vid on the Airbus A380! Would love to see the details of that flying building lol
If it isn’t too complex, can u take a look at a cnc machining center next? I’ve recently been hooked on cnc videos and have always wondered how they work😊
Nice video mate! Great insight into the world of speedcubing
Thanks!
Terrific animation and spot-on summary what a speed cube is about.
The animation is so good, I could literally feel those cubes turning in my hand.
Man these videos must take ages to make we can tell you have put hard work into this
Can u do a inside of the toilet?
probably the most accurate overview I've ever seen for speedcubing (method, hardware, everything!)
This was a stellar visualization of a 3x3 - it would be interesting to see how the mechanism / core changes as you up in size from 3x3 to 7x7
Cubicle better
Don't hate
@@crislorencejacobe6575 In case you didn't know, that is not called "hating", that is called "giving your opinion".
I have no ability to do anything 3D related..... That said, this was so darn fascinating! Thanks for another awesome use of CG art for spreading knowledge! Now, since this got me in the Jared Owen 3D mood, let me find an older video of yours to watch again!
Your work is fantastic, keep it up. The enigma, titanic and the vhs tape are my favorite.
😀
Short and sweet, but still really interesting! Nice work on the animation as always Jared!
This is very impressive as a speedcuber this is spot on what a speedcube is and this is just incredible
Thanks for watching!
Nice video! Might be me in the blog article :P
Wonderful work Jared! 👏🏾👏🏾 I especially enjoy your work on “everything” dealing with space.. will you someday do a video on “spacesuits”? From early days to now? As well as spacex’s spacesuits?? Thanks again Jared!
I'm also really glad you used the right color scheme on the cube! Yellow opposite white, with blue red green orange in the middle!
I’m a speed cuber and LOVE the speedcubeshop logo on your 3D design!
YOUVE GONE OVER EVERYTHING AND I LOVE IT 😭😭 tysm man, such an easy video to understand for non-cubers
You make such good videos and you have a very suitable educational structure to it. I would be interested to see a making-of video from you where you show how you create your animations
I recently watcht a video about corner cutting and how it was resolved, nice to see one of your videos about a topic
Your videos are amazing and you clearly put a lot of work into them. I have a suggestion for a video, what if you made a video on how a DSLR camera works it is very fascinating.
My cousin and I are cubing fans. We already have a small collection of cubes which include both Pyraminx - Megaminx and some of the novelty cubes (Ghost). Thanks for the video!
Awesome! I have one call the Rubik's UFO but I'm not even sure if they make it anymore. There's some interesting variations out there
90It's really nice to see the work you've put into these videos, and I also like it when you make a video about rubik's cubes (I'm one of those speed cubers lol).
Research is clearly thorough, as a speed cuber I enjoy the little additions here and there of intricate details, it really brings the video together. Already buy from SCS so no need to worry, seeing how the corner piece was modelled and how on the face of the piece it was fully square and not rounded, which helps to not let the corer twist, can't even begin to imagine how you model those details let alone an the opera house, would love to see a part 2 covering some other things like core magnets, piece patterns and some other cool systems but if not that was still a great video. Keep up the great work :)
Thanks for the kind words😀
I've been in rhe the cubing comunity before and i got to say this video is pretty accurate down to how the algorithms work and it's mechanical detail. I can tell plenty of research went into this (just like any of his video)
Im every time so happy when you Jared load up a new video! You‘re really one of my most favourite KZheadrs! And you help me to speak better English because I am not a native speaker.
Awesome! Glad to help
Been a fan of this channel for a very long time, the quality has never decreased. Can I make a request, can you please animate how the voyager missions happened, thank you
Great work! As a speed cuber myself I love this
As a cuber I really like how he mentions CFOP and solving Layer by Layer instead of solving Face by Face (also the RS3M, the MoYu screwdriver and the Martian lube)
Such a well put together video! My cube-loving son has watched it quite a few times already. He and I just got a rubik’s edge for our collection. Do you think you’ll ever make a video explaining how those work?
Keep these videos up mate. They are great fun to watch
Thanks a lot for your interesting videos. I opened the normal version of the cube a few years ago 😅. It uses the tension mechanism as well including the screw and spring, but it is not as flexible as the fast version.
I would love to see more informative videos on niche topics like this
I remember watching your 2x2 video on how it works, this one is even better!
I'd like you to make a video explaining how split-flap displays work. You might've seen one in airports and/or railroads.
you're videos are truly amazing, i just wanna know what software's you use to make these video and how much does it take to animate and find information for it. Thanks!
El mejor vidro del cubo de Rubik que he visto: Muchas gracias !!! 👏🏼😃 Thank You so much !
Thank you for this amazing video! I looked far and wide for such a video and this is the best explanation i found❤
Jared can you do inside the Wonder of the seas? I would love to watch it!
Hi! Always a great job on this channel and thank you for this desire to share with us the functioning of life around us... when can we see a making of your work? (the software you use, the way you proceed from the moment you design the project until its completion).
This is kinda late but I really to see a video about the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and how the launch works. I love these videos so much and I've learned a lot from this channel. Jared spends so much time on these videos and they turn out so well. If only I could subscribe twice.
Thank Jared for another great video. You are an inspiration!! 😃
Another terrific video, Jared! Rubics Cube was integral in my childhood and the 80s as a decade. My fav were the mini cubes on keychains for some reason. Keep on, keeping on, Jared!!!
thanks daniel!
As a speed cuber, this is an excellent video. Explains the core concepts of speedcubing and how a rubiks cube works. I have many 3x3s and I can assure you that when you take them apart, they look exactly like the cube in this video. Great video and keep up the great animations!!!
Thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you liked the video!
I loved these little details om the cube with these thre reflective stripes on the inside of the edge pieces. This video was amasing!
Thanks Ture - I tried really hard to capture the small details😀 It was really fun doing the 3D modeling
Great job Jared! Keep it up we are sharing your videos to our friends to learn more from you and please tell us which software do you use to design animations and i am a Solidwork designer
I really enjoy your videos, I would like to see how an SD card works, specifically on how when you put it in the wrong way and it gets stuck. 👍
I love your videos man, I watch almost every single one of them. I pretty liked the how does the grand piano work video, can you try to make a how does an electrical or digital piano work? Thanks :D
I like the cubes very much, I just can't solve mine, I have been trying so many times that the inside has worn out. Thanks for the video Jared!
I dont cube like i used to, but i cannot wait for this one! Thank you in advance another amazing video Jared!
Thanks David!
Wow! 8 years later and he's still good!
My 5yo son (and I) are mesmerized by your videos… watch at bedtime. Suggestion: Gondola ski-lift… how the gondolas slow down and space close together to load and unload. Thanks for your work!
Thanks Brian - and I like the suggestion!
brings me back the memories of my joy after solving the cube on my on with no help.....THANK YOU!
This guy is my favorite youtuber, and this kind of stuff is why.
Amazing.. animation and knowledge... Genius...
you should make a video about how tape storage drives work
thanks for the timestamps and the video, I am trying to make Rubik's cube with wood, and I needed to understand how it works
As a speed cuber, I thought this video was amazing, I saw it and was very excited to watch it, and was excited all throughout the video. BTW, I average around 19-22 seconds on the 3x3.
Im really interested in how wax records and the machines that play them work, if you could make a video explaining that i think it would be great
you are my favorite KZhead who explains :D
You did great with your animation. Outstanding job. Keep going Bud you have a good thing going.❤️😏🖖🏼🇺🇸
As always CRAZY AWESOME animation ….. in fact your animations seem BETTER THAN the real things you are modeling …..👏👏👏👏👏
As a speedcuber im impressed by the amount of time and effort u spent on this video and as a cuber im proud.
This man can explain how a door works
As a speedcuber I am so glad to have watched this video today shoutout to the KZhead algorithm btw The animation, the little details and the fact that he included corner cutting is amazing anybody that's not an all-time speedcuber rarely adds in corner cutting ✂️ PS: if this man adds the Gan Maglev system with the magnets attached to the bottom of the corner pieces imma go crazy
