I have finished to assemble a beautiful tycoon fountain pen and found a small hair line on the edge of the barrel that holds the nib, I'm guessing it was caused when I had assembled the metal threads in the tubes.
My first approach is to part the blank up to the tubes on both edges to the size of the hair line and glue a band from a contrasting color blank and turn and finish. I am afraid that if I try do disassemble the metal threads inserted in the tubes I can ruin them, so is there an easy way to do it or should I try to turn and finish the barrel assembled it between centers or any other idea
thanks in advance
