I am confused and POed. My first ever commission and nothing went right.
I made the wooden parts for my pens. Then trying to assemble them the mechanism wouldn't pres into the brass tube. It is too small or the brass tube is too large. The second kit I tired and the mechanism slopped around both tubes?!?!?!? The first kit I removed the top and put a small amount of Cyan gel.
The mech still managed to get glued and won't turn. The second I folded small strips of Aluminium over the end and managed to wedge it in, It works great. I am afraid it will fail with use
I told my friend I will make her another, it will have to be after Christmas. I really hated to let her have it but she wanted it to give Christmas morn.
Is the kit missing something? They were WOODCRAFT kits. I like the kit size but an really frustrated. Sorry to drone on and on
