42. L'* Raining Lighter which burns Tax forms
43. 2B Ram with 2 Bottles as antlers
44. 2R* Rower is 2 Radar with Boxes

Parity 3 (Opposite edges - but no flip)
With one edge in front:
2r 2U 2r 2U* 2r 2u

Parity 4 (2 corners in front)
With both corners in front:
50. 2U* Lace with 2 Ukuleles and u inject BotoX

70. R Case with Rachel inside

Parity 5 (Front and Right Edge - no flipped)
With Front edge in front and Right edge on right:
Use Algorithm 3


You only need Last-2-Edges Algorithm and Edge Parity Algorithms
After analyzing the above. I find that you can use Niklas to fix parity corners
(Parity 1 and Parity 4) and convert it into edge parities (Parity 2, 3 and 5).

As such you only need to remember Algorithms for Last 2 Edges and Algorithms for Parity 2 and 3:

Last 2 edges:
Last 2 dedges both vertically parallel to each other.
D* R F' U R' F D'*
[ DucKs R First ORiginal Food Divisor Wrong (X) ]



Parity 2 (1 flipped edge)
With edge in front:

How to Adjust Tension on Eastsheen:

How to Lube Eastsheen:

Note that Rubik and Eastsheen has different Lubing Techniques.
On Rubik, it is same as 3 x 3 x 3, you twist 45 degrees and pop an edge.
But, never do that for Eastsheen, it will lock some pieces later when u put the edge back on.
Instead, for Eastsheen, you remove 4 center caps.

See this AOL - youtube

An alternative, or, probably better (for both Eastsheen and Rubik), is to use the straw and attach it to the Silicon Spray can. Misalign the cube and insert the straw into the gaps betwen
the misaligned layers and spray. For Eastsheen, there is a hollow spot in every middle layer. You can see it after misaligning.
