Please check out www.wunderland.com/wts/jake. Although I did spend a fair amount of time on this page, I certainly consider it a first draft, and I would appreciate any comments about it, either those involving clarity of the explanation, or even better moves that would perform the same functions. Be warned that it is a long page, although I'm sure you expected that. One person wrote to me and said that he had all but two cubies solved. I suspect his difficulty was "parity" which I cover in my Sixth Step. I'm sure there are many good solutions to the 5x5x5, just as there are for the 3x3x3, so if you have a half-solved cube you may need to scrap your work if you want to use my solution. Good luck. -Jacob
