Brings the cubie OYG to its correct position: lubHowever, it will also move the cubies Red-Yellow-Green and Yellow-Green from their correct positions. |
|
2) | Places the cubie OYG elsewhere. (to protect it against the next rotation) | |
3) | Restore the cubies RYG and YG to their original positions. | |
4) | The cubie OYG now is in its correct position. | |

(Please note that in both cases the rotations follows the same pattern.)
The sequence above is the 'Sledgehammer': the algorithm used in this tutorial.
There are many other possible solutions. The advantages of this approach are:
