Jerich Lee
Aerku began as a project for Jerich�s engineering class during his freshman year of high school in 2018. An avid speedcuber himself, he was interested in creating his own speedcube for use in competition. With a 3D printer he received as a gift on Christmas, hundreds of hours of learning, research, trial and error, Jerich finally came up with his first prototype: the JavCube (See the evolution of the Aerku Mark l here). It was in this cube in which Jerich had first implemented the patent pending MIR (Magnetic Inner Radius) design. Read more about MIR here. After a few months of improvements and adjustments to the design, more 3D printers were purchased for larger scale production. Aerku was born.
