Stripped Screws in DIY Type A

[miniGOINGS]

Well, I used the search function, but I couldn't find anything about stripped screws.

My Type A DIY is the fastest cube that I can use right now, but the screws are stripped so I can not tighten the sides. It turns amazing but pops so much that I have to turn at about half my full speed. If it is missaligned a bit, 3 or more pieces go flying across the room. Help please!

Misspelled, but very fast reply!! Is this the most cost effective way?

I think so. I've heard of many people using it. If anything you'll have extra left over if you ever need it for other cubes.

Wait a minute, if a screw is stripped, does that refer to the indents on the head head, or the threads on the shaft?

On my Edison cube, the orange face constantly spins off on its own. I'm sure that its because the screw is unscrewing it self. I think the problem is that when I kept playing with the tension, it made the hole in the core too big, and that's why it unscrews by itself. Is that what your talking about or not? And if it is, will that Loctite threadlocker thing work for this problem? If so, how will I apply it? Please answer this question, this problem has been annoying me for a long time, thank you.
