Portal 2 Hints
How can I get a storage cube onto the exit door's button?
1 of 6: Notice that the second platform has a button pedestal on it.
2 of 6: Press its button to get a storage cube to start bouncing up and down on a third aerial faith plate that's between the two platforms.
3 of 6: Don't try to land on the cube's faith plate, but instead try to intercept the cube in the air as you're thrown from one platform to the other.
4 of 6: Move up next to the faith plate on your platform, then move onto it right after the cube is tossed up by its faith plate. That should allow you to grab it while at the top of your trajectory arc.
5 of 6: If you end up on the starting platform after grabbing the cube, hold onto it and use the faith plate to get to the other platform.
6 of 6: Once you're over there, you can drop the cube on the exit door's big red button.
