Hanoiminx / 3-Layer Magic Drum Algorithms

This is a relatively-simple and rather-fun puzzle that really only requires two steps and a little bit of intuition. Let’s look!

Step 1: Solve Small Edges

If two are flipped (correctly placed, but flipped)

  • Place on top layer, on L and R.
  • Small triangle facing you.
  • R’, L, R, L’
  • U, L’, U’, L

Step 2: Solve Triangle Edges

Mostly intuitive


Step 3: Solve corners

Three-cycle

You can do this starting on the right like this photo or on the left. Just a mirror algorithm. For this one:

  • R’, L, R, L’
  • (this positions the green layer piece on yellow)
  • Move the yellow triangle to the next spot (clockwise here)
  • L, R’, L’, R
