well, well... 

from your source whe can find that :

RMax = max_extent(Rubics) => <5.4, 5.4, 5.4>
RMin = min_extent(Rubics) => <-1, -1, -1>

translate the object with : translate -0.5*(RMax+RMin) give :

RMax = <3.2, 3.2, 3.2>
RMin = <-3.2, -3.2, -3.2>

Rubics is now perfectly center at the origin and rotations are ok. if 
not, there are somes others problems :
 - your are not looking at the origin.
 - in "rotation <clock, clock*2, clock*4>" don't forget that clock varie 
from 0 to 1 degrees
