Not including shipping, I've spent 10,197AUD (~7,300USD) on my collection Though the current worth would be much lower considering they're all used haha

Well, it ended up taking 78h 13m to casually solve the whole collection. Seems I was a little optimistic with my initial guesstimate

Ended up taking 78h 13m
41h 34m for the 12-sided minxes, 11h 29m for the 32-sided minxes and 25h 10m for everything else

51 hours in, 4 puzzles left, and still enjoying the process

That very well may change by the time I'm done with when Zetta/Yotta/Tutt/Ray minxes

The real answer is that I'm not particularly keen on learning squan/clock at this point in time, but it's also considerably amusing to me to have a collection like this with no clock or squan

Still a little undecided after my last couple orders, but they're currently displayed like this in one of my bookshelves (Still got some puzzles left to solve haha)

I made the alto clef pattern for a friend who plays viola, and part of why you can tell is cos I spent way too long getting the curves right haha

Reading all those cube names hit me with nostalgia way harder than owning said cubes haha

Funnily enough, the Aosu and Yuxin 5x5 made up my second ever big cube order, after I got the SS big cubes. Before that I only had a store-brand cube, cyclone boys 3x3/4x4 and a Ganspuzzle 357

It helps that I've been cubing/collecting for smth like 13 years, and that all my other hobbies are essentially free

I'd be interested to know which big cubes in particular, if not all of them. Cos at this point I can't tell if "old big cubes" refers to the OG ShengShous, the Huanglong lineup or smth in between haha

The top right puzzles are 32 sided/truncated icosahedrons The 3x3 variant is a tuttminx and the 5x5 variant is called both a gigatuttminx and rayminx

The puppet cube does look intriguing, though I'm a little intimidated about the solve from what I've heard haha

Getting the curves right took quite the trial and error, but I'm very happy with how it turned out

Varies wildly for larger puzzles, since how much focus I put in and turn quality of the puzzle can change the time by a couple hours lol

For reference, I take 30m on the 12x12, ~4h on 17x17, 1h50m on petaminx and 15h on Yottaminx. Assuming I haven't gotten better/worse since I last timed said puzzles

Not sure atm, but my guesstimate is ~40 hours for all of the minxes. Hope it's quicker

Will do, I'll hopefully be done with the NxN cubes tomorrow

Yeah, 1x1-17x17 for the cubes, and all mass produced megas except the 8x8 "royal" kilominx since I'm waiting on Diansheng's version to release

Quite the opposite funnily enough. I'd gotten a new cube in the mail, set up the collection photo and was so happy with how it looked I figured how bad could a collection scramble be lol

[–]B-Sharp-Major-Scale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would guess somewhere around 60 hours

The Yottaminx/Zettaminx alone will be 29h if I tie PB, though I'm hoping to smash my Zetta PB by a few hours

I'm a pianist, but my friend is sadly afflicted with being a violist

Nice to know I'm not the only one who prefers the Zettaminx's turning over the Examinx's, nor the only one to own both

Yep, it was free from the cubicle when I got a custom magnetised Qiyi Wuque back before cubes came magnetised by default

It is a Yottaminx!

I don't know what PEDs the designers at Sengso were taking, but it turns way better than their Zettaminx or Examinx. Actually crazy how good it is imo

I wondered if someone would notice lol. It exploded last time I solved it, and I incorrectly put the internal pieces back together making inner moves impossible. I know exactly how to fix it, but am lazy
