How to Put a 4x4 Rubik's Cube Together

Intro: How to Put a 4x4 Rubik's Cube Together

Did your 4x4 fall apart, mine did! Here's how to put it back together.

Note: the 4 different types of pieces are the centers, Right edges, Left edges, and corners.

STEP 1: White Centers

This step is a bit tricky, because the centers fall out easily. Put the corner of the hook in the center, see pictures.

STEP 2: White Edges and Corners

Now put the pieces back in as shown.

STEP 3: Second Layer

Follow the pictures to put together the second layer.

STEP 4: Third Layer

Follow the pictures. Put the other edges in after you put the centers in.

STEP 5: Fourth Layer

Follow the pictures to finish the cube! When you put these edges in, put a portion all the way in, and snap the other side in.

I can’t get the last piece in on my cube. I have the original Rubik’s cube.

I am still struggling to put mine together. After putting in the core four white on the bottom, I cannot get the four edge pieces to connect. I also have a watched a YouTube video where the instructor states that it snaps into place. I'm wondering if my Rubik's cube is too old to be put back together? It's from the 80's.

This is what it looks like.

My 4x4 core has square panels with inserts instead of triangles. Any suggestions on how to reassemble it?

Thank you! I've found the 4x4 is far more prone to falling apart than the 3x3, but that is expected due to the size
