The plastic threads on my Jr Retro have failed. Anyone know where/how to get a replacement? I think I may have been over tightening it to be sure it was sealed (a FP). Or one of the kids my have done it :biggrin: (always blame the kids!)

Can new threads be somehow made?

Unfortunately, there are no replacement parts to be had. They know if they fail, we must buy another kit!!! I've got a kit I can't use cause I had to use the threads to repair a pen. Any of the true Jr series will work for the part.

If I am wrong, PLEASE let me know.

Call the vendor that you bought the retro from. They may have replacement parts. The plastic threads is the Retro were notorious for "cross threading". They may still have some parts..... If not, PM me. I quit make this set after the 4th warranty for the same (threads) problem.
