[?][?] I just posted a Baron pen that I assembled. Some might remember seeing part of it before- I'd had a gap in it and asked for help about how to fill it. When I tried to remill that half, it cracked, so I ended up having to take the cap end apart and start over with another blank.
This was the first Baron I've assembled, so I think that this problem is probably from taking the top apart and then using the parts over, but I'd like to know for sure. When I went to push the center part of the top, where the centerband is and there's a black plastic thingy that goes inside that part, the black plastic kind of squished out the sides some. I ended up having to use a razor knife and cut off this extra because then it was showing where I don't think it was supposed to.
You can't tell it now, the pen looks fine, but am I correct in assuming that isn't supposed to happen and that the cause was probably what I'm thinking?
