Okay, you've inspired me to take it apart.  The one face is so loose 
I can literally just grab a corner and pull it out.  I see now why 
it's so loose.  You know those two opposite posts on the spindle 
that have cylindrical posts?  That would be the top one in this

Well, it's not screwed all the way in, evidently.  I can pull that 
center out very far compared to all the others:

The opposite face with the other cylindrical post barely pulls out 
at all.  So I assume those two faces should be balanced better on 
the screw depth.  The other ten centers that protrude from the 
rectangular posts seem fine-- about 1mm or so.

Now I'm off to get the pocket knife...

By the way, does your paper insert method work for keeping Megaminx 
center caps on?
