Square-1 Full Cubeshape

This document provides a tutorial on cubeshaping algorithms for the Square-1 puzzle. It begins with an introduction explaining that the goal is to understand orientation, not memorize algorithms. Then it provides a large table of optimal cubeshaping algorithms ranging from depths 1 to 7 moves.

Square-1 Tutorial

Square-1 Full So, this is how I do cubeshape. First off, do NOT go and learn all these algorithms. That’s not
how it works. This page is missing a lot of mirrors that you would be unable to do. Look at how I
Cubeshape orient the layers and what shape the first twist leads to. If you’re having trouble figuring out a
mirror, let me know. I’ll be glad to help you out.

Posted in cube, square-1 I know some of these algs are suboptimal. In every case this happens, it’s a better fingertrick
than the optimal version. Most of my suboptimal algs go through paw-paw. I do an extra move
that essentially takes two right fists and turns them into two left fists. It makes for a very fast
2gen alg. Try it.

So, without further ado, I give you…a big table of algs.
