I traced the center cap on notebook paper and cut that out. The paper square is slightly larger than the center cap, as tends to happen wh en you trace something.
Then I cut the corners off the paper square to make an octagon. This was very quick and has worked well. I think a thicker paper would have worked better, as the caps do sometimes pop off if I drop the cube. But they stay on just great otherwise, and I can easily take them off with my fingernails if I need to adjust the springs.
