This puzzle turns awful. So I made my own!
Ойын-сауық
The Face-Turning Octahedron has been gaining popularity among speedcubers, but the mass-produced versions are subpar. Instead, I make a custom "RexTO" with 3D-printed pieces!

For those wondering: FTO stands for Face Turning Octohedron
Awesome! I am an FTO speed solver and have made my own rexto (I used sls parts) I hope you get much faster and thanks for bringing awareness to our community!

@@Poppieandboefje one of my favourite things about FTO is that the main method, Bencisco, is very similar to yau on 4x4. In fact FTO is slightly faster than 4 because it has fewer pieces. Super unique puzzle, love FTO

I was worried when I didn’t see an FTO in your last collection video, but I’m glad to see you actually have a couple so I don’t need to give one to you at a competition 😂
Former WB holder here, the LanLan can be a perfectly viable speed puzzle if Florian modded, but people seem to enjoy the RexTO more

Good point! If you have all the materials, I still bet making a RexTO is easier (or at least less mind-numbing) than sanding down a LanLan though.

I have two LanLan modded and magnetised by Tyler himself and they are amazing (thank you Tyler)! My RexTO is marginally better but mostly because it weighs less than the LanLan
@tylerhicks621

Yeah, the big things that the RexTO has over the LanLan are weight, and it doesn't pop. The LanLan is much smoother, and can corner cut a bit better. All of my former records were done on a LanLan for what it's worth

FUN FACT: Yesterday i found out that the Super Ivy Cube is = to an FTO
Video released 2 weeks before announcement of a new magnetic FTO
FINALLY!!!!! Bro I have been so excited for you to do this for so long and I don't even speedsolve FTO or own a RexTO. I might make one now though!
For my most recent RexTO, i used a file and some wet n dry sandpaper to smooth the pieces, and here's a cool trick i got from Tyler: you can polish the plastic to make it look like injection molded stuff by using notepad paper as a super fine grit abrasive. No joke it works wonders once youve got rid of the big likes from printing If i make another, I'll make a before and after video to show off just how good a RexTO can look! 😤 Also, thanks for sharing, love FTO and love seeing ofhers having fun with it!
Ayy, I remember you slyly mentioning this a little while back! This is a great puzzle, and I hope that someone as big as you bringing attention to it, will help get it put onto the WCA. I cannot wait for QiYi or MoYu to compete for best sticker less magnetic FTOs!
I love this. I would never have expected that puzzle to be that puzzle. Very cool!
The amount of effort you had to put in to make a great turning FTO is impeccable. That is awesome
Thanks for making this excellent video ♥️ You really should into Ben's method, it makes solving the FTO much more fun - it's like going from beginner method on 4x4 to Yau but without needing to learn a bunch of algs

Now we have a face-turning tetrahedron (pyraminx), face turning cube (rubiks cube), face turning octahedron, and a face-turning dodecahedron (megaminx). All we need now is an icosahedron.
@ChrisChoi123
Ай бұрын
Icosaix is a thing, unfortunately it turns terribly, far worse than even a lanlan fto
Moyu makes so many Non-WCA puzzles under their "Meilong" sub-brand and they turn so well, i wish they made the FTO too
I have the Rexto and a lanlan that I modified and even added magnets to. I love the FTO, its such a good puzzle to speed solve and I truly wish it was a WCA event. Imagine the Moyu or GAN FTO with core magnets.... Just salivating over that thought.
Please get and review the new magnetic diangsheng FTO! I will be super interested to find out how it compares. I just ordered one myself, though it's on back order
Just got my LanLan FTO about a week ago! I don't care all that much about speedsolving, but I am hoping to be able to solve it in under two minutes soon
After a decade, he finally got an FTO, in 5 years time i will get one
you forgot one step that could have made it so much smoother, acetone vapor smoothening
You should make force ftos using the diansheng ones if you can
6:04 Diansheng is coming.
FTO needs to become a WCA event so we can get good ones
🤍 A face turning octahedron is one of the must have puzzles on my -bucket list.- Second bucket list. The first one is completed.
6:05 this is what diansheng exactly did
it’s mind boggling that a company like qiyi hasn’t made a good turning magnetic fto it’s already so popular while the only mass produced one turns horribly a good turning one would sell so well
Can you please make a 9x9 Rubik’s cube tutorial I can’t figure out the last to centers please🙏
Yay, FTO!!! Next WCA event!

When you want a rexTO but you don't have a 3d printer and the printer at your local library is all booked :( nice video btw.
Wow in all these years I completely missed the relationship between the FTO and the Rex cube!
love FTO, i actually have the Utah state record for this event, will you be coming to rocky mountain championships and competing in FTO?
You have got to be out of your mind to even want to do this!
I wonder if you could do this with an icosahedron.
We love the rex turning octahedron!
Such a talented person. That cube looked bought. Amazing!
FORCE CUBE IDEA - with qiyi gear cubes, if you pull the right way, you can remove the plastic `stickers' and make force cubes
Im pretty sure Diansheng is coming out with one that is magnetic.
If you look at it at a certain angle it looks like a squeezed pyraminx
I really hope this becomes an official event 😃
can wait for the $400 FTO by gan the maglev uv coated water cooling 1231 magnets 500 fire hydrants ooo that gonna be amazing
diansheng fto is magnetic
Can you take apart the sun cube in a KZread short so we can see the mecanism?
My favorite part of the time-lapse was 3d printing
Have you tried the Moyu container cube?
Please make this type cube modification
@Z3Cubing I have a mod idea based on the barrels. Turn wca events into spheres. Just give them way too much pillow.🤣
I keep going back to this video as it's really awesome to see people care so much about a puzzle like this, but there's one thing that bugs me: "Face-Turning Octahedron" sounds a bit... generic? Surely someone can come up with a much catchier name than that.
