Rubik's Cube Teardown

Turn the top row so that each corner is roughly halfway between the sides

Push the pieces up until they pop out of the cube, then, slide the rest out

Repeat this process until you clear the level

You should be able to just directly pull out the rest of the blocks, like so

And there you have it!

You'll have the center piece, with the six centers of the six sides, the turning mechanism

To reassemble, snap all the pieces back into place, and try not to rotate the faces.

It helps to start with the middle pieces first

Don't be afraid to use force!

Once you have the middle pieces in it's pretty simple to just push in the corner pieces

Again- don't be afraid to use force!
