| Mefferts |
The source of several of my twisty puzzles, including a couple megaminxes and I believe my 2x2x2, 4x4x4, and 5x5x5 Eastsheen cubes. They always seem to be introducing something new and interesting to their store. |
| Cubezz |
One of several newer cube stores I've more recently become aware of, online. I do not buy many puzzles, but just recently got a couple MoYu WeiLong V2 (3x3x3) cubes together with a ShengShou mini 7x7x7. They were well packaged, and a great addition to my collection. From what I've seen, this site seems to have some of the best prices around, for the puzzles they stock. |

| Jess Bonde's Cube Page |
He has a great cube timer, links, and a list of videos sorted by solving time of some of the best speed cubists around. Go there and see how it's done. |
| Mark Jeay's Cube Page |
Mark Jeay's simple solution to the Rubik's cube. I found it a little hard to follow (so have patience), but it is a very easy solution to learn - not much memorization. |
| Jessica Fridrich's Cube Page |
Jessica is one of the “originals” of speed cubing, placing 10th at the first world championships back in June, 1982. Check her page to learn her method - perhaps the most widely used in speed cubing. She also posted a great historical narrative of her experience with the cube. |
| Lars Petrus' Cube Page |
Lars, also one of the “originals,” finished 4th at the world championships in '82. He created a different method that is also fairly widely used. |
| Gaétan Guimond's Cube Page |
Gaétan uses the third of the most popular methods - corners first. He describes his method in detail, although you'll have to live with a partial solution, unless you can read french (or use the translation tool at AltaVista to read his french version). He has also mastered the skill of blindfold cubing. |
| PuzzlingAddiction.com |
David Barr has created a cube applet that counts your moves, times your solution, and posts your scores. You can even replay your solutions or the solutions of others. |
