What you need

This teardown is not a repair guide. To repair your Rubik's Cube, use our service manual.

    • Turn the top row so that each corner is roughly halfway between the sides

    • Push the pieces up until they pop out of the cube, then, slide the rest out

    • Repeat this process until you clear the level

    • You should be able to just directly pull out the rest of the blocks, like so

    • And there you have it!

    • You'll have the center piece, with the six centers of the six sides, the turning mechanism

    • To reassemble, snap all the pieces back into place, and try not to rotate the faces.

    • It helps to start with the middle pieces first

    • Don't be afraid to use force!

    • Once you have the middle pieces in it's pretty simple to just push in the corner pieces

    • Again- don't be afraid to use force!

I hated this thing. I disassembled mine with a .22 hollow point at 100 yards. Yes, It felt great!
