Hey everyone...
I have noticed that I turn my blanks down perfect to the bushing, sand everything, Polish everything...assemble and the blank still sits a little proud of the nib or center band on some my kits....what am I doing wrong in order to get a perfect seemless fit...?
I use a mandrel saver.....could it still be a mandrel issue?... I know it could and more than likely a creator issue..lol....but my pens look perfect except for that...just feels perfect to the bushings right before assembly.
I have a caliper but obviously I stink at using it.....wish I could get a more seemless transition....any advice.
Here is the Pen...note it is a slimline so I kept it fat because I did not paint the tubes.
