Anyone else having problems with these? Specifically, the new design of tips/nibs for the rollerball Jr Statesman vII? Most of the ones I've purchased that have come with the newly designed tip are having an issue with the schmidt cartidges being a tight fit were the catridge should protrude through the tip, so that:
a- the tip doesn't want to extend as far as it should,
b- the pen takes extra effort to screw together, since the cartidge tip is sticking and not fully extending, and
c- when you go to take it back apart, the tip and thin part (reed?) that extend into the refill stick, and are pulled apart from the body of the refill.
I can take a small drill bit and correct the problem, but was hoping for feedback on if anyone else was experiencing this issue before contacting Eric at Craft Supplies.......
