After 7 years of competitive Square-1, I try to solve the 4x4 Square-1, the Square-2. Let me know if I should do more videos on this puzzle!

    @@CubeMasterYT I started by seeing if I could solve each side completely then ended up doing what you did - reducing it to a square 1 and solving it that way. And would actually have finished it really quickly if not for the fact that I messed up the final adj parity alg like 3 times :'(

    When you went for layer by layer instead of reduction to SQ1, I was like noooo. I knew redux to SQ1 would be easier. But you got pretty close with it anyway. Good stuff. I want one! 😎

    Hi Sam. I Got a volt v2 m for christmas and I took it apart to do your volt v2 m setup and I found out the only one slice has magnets so its unstable and when I turn the U and D layers it will try to kinda corner cut with the slice. Do you know of anything I can do.

    At the end when trying to solve corners you could have just done adj/adj, also swapping 2 random edges on the bottom, instead of inflicting yourself the parity alg.

    @@CubeMasterYT It's a confusing name. The Square-3 is a Square-2 with split edges... while the Square-3 Plus is a Square-1 on the top and a Square-2 on the bottom. As the original maker of the Square-3 Plus, I hate the name personally, but it's what Calvin wanted... I guess the Square-3 Plus is a little harder than the Square-2 if you're into that.
