EDIT: UPDATE VIDEO ON MY CHANNEL, GO WATCH IT FAQ Q: how do I get all the pieces A: here is a pieces list, you can buy the entire cube for quite a cheap price. enjoy! rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-89284/puzzLEGO/lego-rubiks-cube-working/#details new edit: unfortunately my build got removed, i appealed so it will hopefully be there soon just go to 'buy parts' to choose how you want to buy it, I'd recommend bricklink Q: can you put it on lego ideas? A: if I can improve the design enough so it's reliable I will Q: when you scramble it by rearranging the pieces, isn't there a chance it won't be solvable A: yes, I realised this while editing. there's only 1/12 chance Q: can't you use 2x2 round plates instead of square ones? A: the circles make it too loose, I've tried this. I have an idea about how to improve that i'll show you if I make another video about this Q: is someone knocking on my door at 4:03? A: no, it's just a realistic sound effect, sorry for that
Ого Какой кубик когда начал смотреть это видео у меня появилось много впечатлений об этом кубике! 🤗
Thank you
Maybe make the shopping cart on bricklink?
you could use flat circles instead of squares
you do know you used 2 eligal building tecniques
"does this count as an illegal technique" Buddy. The whole video is an illegal technique. *It's perfect*
Love ur profile picture
Nah
Hahaha that's so funny when he says "Is this an illegal technique?" Then the FBI is nocking on his door.
@@Terrus_38 now
The 1,000th like!
When you "scrambled" it by taking it apart and putting it together randomly, there's a good chance it wasn't solvable due to parity. There's edge parity and corner parity. You have to swap corners in cycles of 3 assuming no edges are swapped, you have to swap edges in pairs of 2 and cannot flip just 1 edge. All corners must be turned in sets of 3 (all clockwise or all counterclockwise) as well. Feel free to reply if you have any questions.
yeah, i realised
A simple solution to the long scramble time may be to scramble a regular cube and then assemble this to match the layout, that way it's a legitimate scramble without taking forever
@@misszettai7888 good idea
@@puzzLEGO there are also websites to generate valid scrambles, often used for competition. Then you do don't even have to scramble the real cube lmao
What happen if the black lego pieces aren’t there?
this takes serious skill

Hi kingzippy
seriously
You have incredibly well developed spatial reasoning and engineering skills. The way that you identify problems, tinker, and prototype incrementally is all incredible, especially for someone that seems relatively young
Awesome cube and video! Looks like a huge improvement to the old design; I can't wait to try it out!
thanks! yes, it's a big improvement, I hope you enjoy!
Omg hello z3cubing I'm big fan
Hi
Hallo

Hands down the best LEGO tutorial creation of the decade! 👏👏👏
Glad to see you here!
Hello there
I also watch you, it surprising that you' r also here!
Agreed
FBI open up
this is my first time watching your videos and my mind is BLOWN!!!
how is this un noticed
😅@@GhostFox.-.
When you just randomly assemble the cube, there's a 1 in 12 chance it will actually be solvable - so stopping after 1 or 2 layers was likely the furthest you could have gotten anyways ;)
Also, that knock at 4:04 sounds EXACTLY like someone knocking on our glass door to our backyard which is ecxactly to my right. it TOTALLY freaked me out. lol
haha, when I first heard it I thought it was someone knocking on my window. it's very realistic
yeah same i got a window behind me and i thought it was grandpa knocking for some reason
It was in the left side of my headphones and my door is on the left side as well so I feel you
Same omg😂
@@djaydeved omg same xD i look behind me but no grandpa out there xhahahahaah
Wow this is amazing thanks for sharing!
Brand….
Rubik's x Lego when?
Cool
thanks Rubik's!! It's cool that the official brand (or whoever runs this account) saw this!
No way...
I love the trail and error aspect of building with legos. I always tend to build something and try many things to perfect any build
yo there should be a lego rubik's cube set with all the pieces and instructions
This is a very interesting challenge and represents a great answer. Great build!
thank you! I hope to keep improving it in the future
Why are you not verified!?

For the colour on the out side you could use tiles
THIS THING IS AMAZING WOW
Damn, I remember being both obsessed with LEGOs and Rubik's cubes when I was younger and I spent hours upon hours trying to research on youtube and build my very own LEGO Rubik's cube, but to no success. I thought that it really was impossible as no one had ever done it before. 8 years later you've proven me wrong. This is absolutely awesome.
ok
Wowow cool
Same
In no small part due to new parts being made in between those 8 years. Though I’d imagine it’s been possible long before then at larger scales.
This is me but I’m young rn
As a speedcuber and a LEGO fan this is freaking awesome
I have loved building lego’s my whole life and I am impressed on how he can build a lego rubiks cube
My other nephew can make fully functional lego pieces out of a Rubik's cube.
Hahahah

This is Amazing i first see the working lego rubik's cube that normally work
Playing this video with headphones, in the middle of the night, in a dark room, alone, and hearing the door knocking at 4:18, and pausing the video before the camera turns and someone says "FBI"... damn dude, I just about nearly peed myself. I was *freaking* out.
sorry about that :( I literally got so many comments about it
@@puzzLEGO to my right is a hard concrete wall - I was like WTF?! How?! - Best binaural effect ever!
@@puzzLEGO Well I, for one, enjoyed it 😀
lol sameee
Ok
So, I think I understand the issue. The core isn't as found as it should be, so considering a quality of typical Rubik cubes design, you must come up with two improvements: one, make the mechanism more circular. Two, make it springy. Typical speed cubes are loose but springy, so if you can find some perfectly sized springs it will allow for some play. Obviously corner cutting is out of the question but something to make it looser.
that was a bit hard to follow, but I think that's right. when I try to turn it, sometimes pieces will jut out a bit, so either I need to make sure all the pieces line up when not turned (magnets) or I stop the jutting pieces from prohibiting turning (curved corners on the 2x2 plates)
@@puzzLEGO The magnets may be another challenge because with such precise turns needed (due to the pieces not being ROUNDED), the magnets would have to be pretty strong, not only to make the cube easier to turn but also to compensate for the (potential) plastic thickness, as I am not sure if you would need to make any changes to the piece design to account for the space necessary to MOUNT the magnets into the cube pieces. In standard speedcubes, the gap between all magnets is usually less than 0.15mm of plastic, this is so that SMALLER (standard) cube magnets work normally. However, with LEGOs, technically there doesn't need to even be a gap. It would be pointless trying to make the magnets "embedded" inside of the cube pieces, as that would likely only pose additional challenges. So "mounting" the magnets to "indents" in the sides of the cube pieces may be easier, depending on whether you would want to use GLUE or not to achieve this. --- However, I am only speculating, and it is unclear as to what exactly you are against doing. For example, implementing a CLICKING MECHANISM, instead of magnets, would likely require unorthodox lego-building methods. At the least, moving parts. At most, a bunch of metal beads and tiny springs with drilled holes to house the system.
@@TechSupportDave yeah magnets are a last resort. they don't need to be too strong anyway. basically I just need to allow a bit of corner cutting
@@puzzLEGO liked your video! It was great
please speak english
This looks so satisfying
This is a work of art
It’s amazing that this is even possible this should be a Lego ideas set I would definitely buy this and the best part is is if you can’t work out how to solve it or throw it at a wall it’s fixable.
that's true, btw if you want to buy the set the link is in the pinned comment Edit: if I can improve I’ll submit to lego ideas
I just looked at it thx as soon as I saved up the money think I’m going to buy the parts this is really cool.
I agree, submit to Lego ideas, even with the illegal techniques, just to establish himself as the creator before the copy cats try to hijack the idea...
@@Danny-lb8df cool Bugatti picture
@@mainacc9453 thanks
7:47 my man did a “how it’s made” camera movement
Wow, great work! You have an amazing talent in creating Lego structures, keep it up!
Incredible
I remember trying to build one of these based off a Google image like 7 years ago and giving up after not having enough pieces for two corners. What leaps and bounds have been made since then, excellent design!
thank you! I think it's basically every lego builder's dream to try to make one of these
Well click this 4:04
9:10 Randomly assembling Cube from pieces is a bad idea. There's very little chance that it'll be solvable after it. You should've assembled it with all colors in place and then scrumble it manually.
yes, I know, I realised while editing. it's only a 1/12 chance
I saw that and went "last layer's gonna drive him insane."
in actually that's much faster than pre arrange all colors, you only need to fix the last one or two wrong pieces on the last layer.
@@cuonglequoc7466 not really a smart thing to do though since its almost as easy to just look at your pieces and put it back together correctly
@@wxbrainiac nah, it’s time saving I’m talking about. I meant those who can solve a 3x3 cube in under a minute easily (it’s not hard if you know the method, really) the most time consuming steps are assembled the pieces.
Props man, this is cool
That is incredible
You can tell he's a hard-core lego builder from his fingernails. I did the same when I had a bunch legos.
very true, although it's also because I forget to cut them
Relatable
Lego bricks
Gross. Clip your damn nails!
@@myitbos1335 its not gross to have long fingernails, most girls do and people don't call that gross.
You know you have a good design when you insert the last piece and everything lines up all nice and neat.
4:03 with headphones on it really feels and sounds like someone is knocking at your door its so trippy
Very good cube
Two years ago people said that it was impossible to make a Rubik's cube out of Lego, and you proved them wrong...
Given enough time Lego will eventually become bloated with enough speciality pieces that anything will be possible - it just depends what scale you want it at. /s
This should be an ideas lego set
Also, to make it look like a speed cube you could put round 4x4 plates in the middle of each color
I feel like lego should actually make this a set, it’s a great concept!
Yeah, me too
Customer service will be full of refunds. They need to design new pieces and especially for the center.
but lego will not aprove it because there is like 1000000 illegal tehnuiqes
Definitely, lego isn't just scale models that work to a fashion. Mechanical science should be a big proponent of their model making. Lego should do the whole Rubiks range of puzzles, and other puzzles too like the sliding puzzle with 15 pieces in a 4 X 4 pattern.
@@tonygarratt5832 i did that one as a kid :D i even used a baseplate and made it for playing sudoku
Bro that door knock at 4:00 is WAY too good lol. Almost gave me a heart attack, even on the second hearing
I actually got up and went to check the front door just now :')
bro dis dude insane
It's just wow and even the colors are correctly located, which is very rare, I understand the video is old, but I was very surprised ❤
Potential improvement: Instead of the 2x1 tiles, use the new "35480 : LEGO Plate, Round 1 x 2 with Two Open Studs". This would prevent the corners of the 2x1 tiles from locking up
No the piece 32557 would be better
@@MercurialOne yea
@@MercurialOne Welp why the hell didn't you suggest it when you knocked on his door!!! 😝

Haha
If you use circular pieces you might get smoother turns
This should become a Lego set
depending on where im looking in my room, the knock at 4:02 either sounds like its coming from my door or my closet, freaks me out every time. apart from that, im absolutely blown away by this
Why don’t you try using circular colored plates instead of square? You’d have to make the plates under neath circles as well but hey, no corners for the pieces to catch each other on!!!
yes, I've ordered some curved plates, we'll see how that goes
That's exactly the concept usual Rubik's cubes use for fluidity, it's a great idea
Looking at the design there are a lot of places where curved edges would not be possible. Also, even if you could make it all with circles it might not be any better, it would probably be too sloppy when turning. The most practical option if you really wanted to improve the turning would be to sand a small curve on each of the corners
If you were feeling particularly wild, you could use a belt-sander to round the corners off on each face piece stack
Aren't there 2x2 octagonal plate pieces that would work better than squares or circles?
This video relieves me from my stress idk how or why but it just does
4:04 that knocking really got me since i wear headphones
It's people like you who impress me every single time I see something like this. If Lego were to design a Rubik's cube themselves they'd probably just design new pieces to make it simple, whereas you really put a lot of thought and effort into this ❤️
The power of will, and trail and error
Go go go!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
My two favorite toy combine this is the best video
This is the best Lego rubrics cube design ever! Till now
You can tell he is a lego enthusiast when you see those nails 2:50 HAHAHAAAA THE TEETH MARKS XD
This is insane 😮
incredible.
I used to be obsessed with rubiks cubes 3 years ago and tried to make one from legos. None of the tutorials were real and never were real or 100% lego. Ive finally found one with the list of the real legos!!!!
same, once I started a youtube channel I knew what I had to do
cant wait for lego to partner with rubiks and make this a set
I miss to build a Lego art. Because of this video. Not only in Cube. Nice Development of Lego Cube
Wow! This looks like a better version than the old one.
That snapping it feels so good 4:58
It’s just amazing of how you know what’s inside a Rubik’s cube and building what’s exactly inside it
By the way, how much do you know about Lego
You can take apart a rubik's cube pretty easily yknow
Seen this? kzhead.info/sun/iL6hh5Wjlp9tgpE/bejne.html
Nice Work its perfect.
OMG. I can't believe it! You did SO good!
1:10 the happy spasing had me on the floor 😂 Great work! Cant wait to see another!
This would be an awesome LEGO ideas set
I think so too! I just need to improve some of the design first
That's crazy!! 😆
try using 3x3 plate pieces for each piece of the cube. so you would end up with a 9x9 on each face of the cub, but individually having 9 tiles on each side that is a 3x3. This I think would give you more space to work with a more circular and flowing design to actually have a better locking mechanism and smoother turning. or you could go even larger, but each time its larger the more ridiculous the size. but i think this is incredible

8:51 "so you can see the circular shape of the cube" hwhat-
Technically it's an octagon but close enough
This is perfect! Now I can cheat with ease by taking the color sides and match it!
nice drum work
This is awesome!!
And Im here because of you. Truly awesome!
Great troubleshooting on this one to get that huge improvement in the end! Can't wait for part 3...
I hope so, if there's a piece that works better than what I used I'll make a follow-up video and put the build on LEGO ideas
I am very impressed
Saving this video for Christmas 😂👍 My brother will love this
Make it bigger. Won't be the same size as a regular cube but it would certainly give you more space to make the inner working more solid, tightly fitting, and in the end make it run smoother
3:58 I always did this when I
Interesting

Daaaaaamn dude ur like a genius with 100000 IQ.🤯🤯🤯
THIS IS SO COOL!!! i want a lego rubiks cube wowww
The fact that you were able to re-design, build, and fit this into a better structure almost makes the idea of "solving" the Rubik's Cube lesser of an achievement haha
I used to build with Lego for years and never would have thought someone could make a fully functional cube. Amazing!!
You should show this idea to lego as it is awesome and worth the time to make it would make an awesome set
Wow!
It’s cool how people can make incredible things out of lego, from scratch.
this needs to go on Ideas
If I can improve it enough, I will consider it.
4:02 I literally thought this was a real knock and freaked out because it comes from right behind 😂
man you are a genios
I was so glad when there was a tutorial. I absolutely adore your content! What if you maybe tried a 4x4x4 next, that would be awesome
I will do 2x2 first I think
I would have quit in 2 minutes. Your dedication is incredible.
