Last night I successfully reassembled my Rubik's Cube after multiple pieces suddenly popped loose, in mid-puzzle pattern...

For anyone that isn't familiar with cubing, the only way a busted cube is supposed to be reassembled is in the fully solved state. Otherwise it's practically impossible to solve if you just randomly reassemble it.
But in this case, last night I was practicing, and most of a whole side just popped loose in my hand, mid-puzzle. I knew exactly where I was with the puzzle though, carefully snapped all the pieces back in their appropriate mid-puzzle positions, and managed to successfully solve it from there ๐
Note: The photo above is a recreation of last night's cube breakdown, same puzzle sequence though.
Don't mind the dots, that's my own custom mod...
Reference regarding the dot holes...
