This is something that recently caught my eye, and then realized it was the same when I checked the other three or four cigars that I have assembled.
I've noticed that there is an ever so slight gap between the centerband, and the coupler when final assembly is complete. I'm pretty sure that I didn't mill any of the barrels too short (as matter of fact, two of these are my first pens, and I didn't even mill to the point of getting shiny brass.
I've noticed this on kits from Johnson's Workbench (Rockler), Woodcraft (I'm assuming Berea), Woodturningz, and W n' W.
I'm sure it's an easy fix as I could just Mill down the Clip Housing a bit so that it could seat more. I'm just wondering if anyone else has addressed this issue. It gives the Cigar a little play, and prevents it from being such a tight pen.
