3 x 3 x 4 cuboid

So I have been doing a lot of Rubik's cube solving lately I am pretty good at it and my fastest speed is 1 minute and 5 seconds.

It is probably faster now because I haven't timed myself in a long time.

Well this Sunday I went to church and one of my friends dad who is a Rubik's cube expert came to church with a 3 x 3 x 4 cuboid.

A cuboid is different than than a regular Rubik's cube because it has more layers or sides.

So it looked really weird at first and the sides could only move 180 degrees but the middles moved regularly. It was all messed up but the two white and yellow were solved.

the thing is that the white and yellow can not go into the middle and the middle pieces cannot go into the top.

It has 12 stickers on the middle sides but the top and bottom at like a regular 3 x 3 x 3 Rubik's cube.

Me and my cube expert friends tried solving it but with all cubes it is really hard to solve without instructions.

We could only solve the bottom layer and we gave it back to him but the let me " Bring it home and play around with it"

So I brought it home and I went onto the computer and tried to solve it.

It took about 2 hours to solve it because everything was so different from the 3 x 3 x 3 Rubik's cube.

but I solved it and I was so happy, I wrote down all of the algorithms and now am trying to solve it without looking at instructions.

I can't wait to see my friends expressions when they see that I have solved it.
