i JUST bought the 4x4 eastsheen minicube. when I opened it up to lube it, I 
hadn't planned on taking out any pieces... but, when I did so, it ended up 
knocking a few pieces out. I had to take an hour or so to re-assemble the cube. 
When I was done, i was extremely happy.. it turned great.
   
  Today the cube was dropped from approximately 3 ft up onto carpet (NOT by 
me), and afterwards, it stopped working. U turns work, D works, L, R, F, B, etc 
all work. However, I could not turn horizontally at the middle. IE, I could not 
do any u or u' moves.
  
I took off all the center caps. i tried to figure out what was wrong. I noticed 
that when all the center caps are off, you can see through between adjacent 
sides. However, between the L and F faces, it seemed there was a piece jiggling 
around in there, and I could not see through as I could on every other edge.
   
  I tried to fix it. I couldn't.., all that I was able to do was end up 
knocking out tons of pieces, and evnetually I decided to start ALL over. I 
disassembled the cube completely.
   
  I reassembled it. It took THREE HOURS. When I was done, after a little bit of 
tightening and adjustment, the cube worked great.I was then playing with it a 
little bit (using it to simulate a 2x2 cube, so I was doing only r, l, u, d, 
moves, etc), when all of a sudden, I noticed that the same problem was 
happening again!!!!!!!!!!
   
  im about to try and fix it, but arrrrgghh!! what do I do??
