Why Rubiks?

Until my current deployment to Afghanistan, I'd only ever tried to get one side of the cube, as quickly as I could, and only once did I get even two sides at the same time. I had a breakthrough to the next step while I was out here, and there was someone willing to show me the remaining steps to solve the 3x3x3 cube. Once I got the hang of that one, I moved up to a 5x5x5, and learned a couple of new tricks for the larger cubes. I taught myself the 7x7x7, and then started making designs to give a bit of a challenge. Here, for those who wish to take the time to view, are the results. Enjoy! :)

Peace

this one was a challenge from one of the other Marines I've been working with, and is my first design that isn't completely (horizontally, vertically, & diagonally) symmetrical.  It actually came together easier than I'd expected it to, and it's one of my two or three favorite designs so far. (originally solved on 24 July 2011)
