I just finished my first Lazerlinez two-piece pen, the Eagle. Everything was great until I went to press the barrel assembly together. No press fit. As in zero. As in about .001" of slop. The cap pressed together with a bit less pressure than I would have hoped, but I think it will be fine.
Not having any epoxy here at the office I used some medium Stick Fast CA glue. I've used a drop or two of CA in the past to help a loose press fit that I thought might otherwise work apart, but nothing this loose before.
My question is, is this likely to be a workable solution, or is it just a matter of time before it will fail? I'm guessing it will fail, but I have no idea, really. Is epoxy even a permanent solution?
Any ideas?
