I was reading your post and I briefly thought you were trying to say it IS expensive, not that it is not. And I was like is this guy on crack, cubing is cheap as chips.

Anywho, glad to see I was wrong. I learned cubing at the same time as my buddies kids did, and while I never got faster than I think a minute and a half? They are well under a minute now, it's crazy.

I still cube occasionally, but mostly just to fidget while watching TV ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ Also so I don't forget how to do it.

Yeah, it's cheap. Sorry for the lack of clarity and brevity. Lol.

I couldn't get any faster than about a minute and a half using the beginner method so I decided to try learning CFOP. At first I got way slower because there are more algorithms to remember but I saw how some others have modified it a bit to make it simpler and practiced when I could (i.e. watching TV like you lol) and now I can solve it in about a minute.

That's clearly not competitive in any way but I'm really just competing against myself so I'm happy with any Improvement. That's light years better than where I started and to people that don't know there are 11-year-olds online doing it in 8 seconds, my one minute is pretty impressive! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Happy cubing, my friend!
