What's the fastest you ever solved it?

It takes muscle memory. I memorized the steps for a while, ran the letters through my head, and now my hands can just solve one without even thinking much.

It takes time, either way.

Yeah, after a while it becomes second nature. I have one sitting on my desk that I do from time to time to keep my hands busy. I need to pick up a Professor's Cube at some point just for the slightly added challenge.

hmm I have to say, this is what my friend said when we discussing Rubik's Cubes:

"Man. I can get a few sides, I once got 5 sides but I couldn't get the last one" I just busted out laughing.

But keep at it. As Black Six it does become second nature. I don't even think of the algorithms any more, I just do them.

If you ever get some good times you should post them (Good time equals anything less than 30 minutes)

And I need to learn how to do my bro's professor's cube, if he ever lets me touch it

So...I've memorized the steps and have completed the cube without looking now. It takes...a few minutes, but I have not felt like timing myself.

I especially like then making all the center colors different.
