John's Place

I've been fascinated by these puzzles since holding a Rubik's Cube in my hands for the first time, but didn't become a serious collector until 1991 when I rediscovered them after buying and solving the newly released Square-1. When I learned that there was no magic involved and that I could develop my own solutions, I was really hooked.

My ongoing project is a study of the 4x4x4 cube and its many modification possibilities. I'm speaking of the lazy man's custom puzzle here - a cube and some masking tape and crayons. The solutions posted here are mainly relating to this project, although I hope to add more solutions as time permits. My solution philosophy emphasizes complete solution. If some puzzle pieces are identical or ambiguous in orientation, I will number them or add orientation marks. I don't really care about speed, however.

If you're interested in learning how to develop your own solutions, read my general notes on solution (forthcoming). If you need help on a specific puzzle, check out these solutions:
