are you buying the new qiyi clock?
@henryeyles 26 күн бұрын
probably not cause the pin mags are already strong enough in my qiyi

I bought it and I tape coded it and lubed it. I did keep in the nuts and not the screws because it was too lose. The only thing its so loud lol.

Finally an unboxing video!! Did bring up some questions though Why lube the inside of outer casing instead of real friction points of inner casing? What do you mean when you say old batch vs new batch? Are you referring to different batches of 2020 version or is 2020 version the old batch and 2024 version the new batch Good luck with the competition!
@cartercubes 25 күн бұрын
1. i did end up putting lube in the inner casing, but i tend to avoid it because it fiddles with magnet strength and i run the risk of putting center and corner clocks in the wrong spots 2. old batch was when it first released in 2020, new batch are just regular qiyi sold early 2021 - now, hope this was helpful!

@@Tito_decorazon7771 i have heard some quality control issues, but i dont think theyre the end of the world or a consistent pattern in any case. if there is a issue you should probably report it immediately and they'll give you the necessary compensation.

I got this for a comp and it did not come in time; but the day before the comp, I went to the cubicle with my friend and got one. Since I had another coming, I decided to anders mod it even though I have never done that before. I lost so many magnets so the next day when my other clock came I fixed it. I am actually so glad I got 2.

Why did you tape the edges of the clock? The color keeps it together, right?
@cartercubes 25 күн бұрын
no, the plastic case is loose without the tape and i don’t use screws
@flyinlion7085 25 күн бұрын
Is it faster without screws?
