Use a straw to tension your 4x4

This will prevent the center pieces from getting all scratched up from the Phillips screwdriver.
Works well for all even numbered puzzles.

Thoughts?

Good idea.
What I do is to turn Uw a little and then Rw. By doing that I open a gap to introduce the screwdriver without damaging the center pieces.

This is the most genius thing I have ever seen. Now I don't have to worry about my center pieces breaking.

Yes I do this sometimes to get the screwdriver in at first, but I always have the straw, too.
