How do you fix a bent DIY core?

[jeff081692]

Its dosen't look that bad but my blue side can't turn good because the center piece is a little off. It was in my book bag and the books bent it. I think it was time for a new cube anyway but I would like to know if it can be fixed.

The center piece? I don't think that books would be able to bend it. I have a hard time picturing what it would look like; can you take a picture of it?

Also, if the cube deems unusable; keep the spare pieces. Then you can either save it when you lose a pieces from a pop, or just buy a DIY core from ed's think shop for <$1 and make it into a DIY.

When I took the cube out the pieces were all scattered around the bag so after my books disassembled my cube somehow the center piece got stuck.

I wish I had a camera but to describe it just think of a regular center piece connected to the core but slightly tilted where you can see a bit of the screw. From looking at it you can't tell anything is wrong unless you look really hard.

I have already used the pieces on my store cube. I don't have a use for the core anymore so if anyone wants it they can have it.

I have an idea of what you are talking about; as far as I know, you cannot fix it.

Get a lighter out and melt it back into shape?
