Yeah, I got the same problem with the caps too. I thought of not 
putting the caps on, but sometimes the other pieces get caught with 
the corner pieces (because of the hole) resulting in not-so-smooth 
turns. I ended up cutting small gaps in the edges of the caps so that 
they line up nicely with the notches in the corner piece. I then put 
the caps on and sand down the edges so that they are flat. It's a lot 
of work but the cube turns very well now with the corner caps on.

Older DIY cubes comes with the corner caps installed, so this is a 
new feature... which brings me a lot of extra work! :( I ordered 4 
cubes so I have 3 more to work on...
