This should be in the marketplace, but since it isn't, I would love any comments or suggestions about making this better. I guess I'll just wait for this topic to die before I post again in the right place.

Actually, I think it does look great! But you should fill the parts, sand it, and paint it so it will look very nice.

Thanks. I would definately clean it up if someone wanted it. But now i guess I'll try to fill in the other cubies. It was also my first mod.

I love it as it is now. I would definitely be interested in buying this. I don't care if the cubies are not filled. I kind of like to look of them empty. how did you make the fused core? Do you have pictures. I would think putty would get in the way of the cuts. How much would you sell this for (or would you just auction it?)

It's not reall a fused core. All you do is cut 2 corners, 1 each on 2 2x2s, and put them together, like you do on a Siamese 3x3.

Here's a picture of the core. It's a little bit hard to get both cubes sanded to make a regular cubie, but this one came about a millimeter off.
I'm gonna make a newer one soon, but I think it will be out of a keychain one.
Now this topic is beginning to be in the right place.

Can you please make a video of the puzzle to show us some of the shapes it can make and how well it turns?
How much would you sell it for, I may be interested depending on the price?

Well. I have a video of me solving it in around 2 minutes, but I can't do anything else because I'm going to be filling the sides. Then I'll have some fine sanding and painting.
Here is a link to the video on Youtube.

And as for the price, it is still undecided until the final product is done.

Wait so did you cut the 2 pieces on the 2x2 in half? And then put them together?

He cut the core pieces and glued them together, I believe.

Yes. The pieces that screw into the core were both diagonally cut.

how do you disassemble 2x2x2's. i know how to take apart the old rubik's ones, but i tried that method on a new one and broke it.

Actually, I just started filling them in. And I'm assuming that "brown" is a reference to UPS, right?
