So I have only turned three real pen kits, and have never disassembled any, but sure do need to.
I tried using the refill to push the transmission back out, but the plastic threads weren't strong enough and popped loose. To make the refill work anyway, I CA glued them back on in a different position so the refill will work.
The problem now is that a new refill will have the problem the original did....
Someone suggested buying the HF transfer punch kit for disassembly, but how do you grasp the barrels tight enough to push the nib, cap, and transmission out without damaging them?
