I put my first Smitty's Caballero together yesterday from spalted red oak and couldn't seem to get the refill to go all the way down or even to write. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong because I haven't read about this anywhere. Part of the problem is there are no instructions for this pen as I'm sure this would be addressed. I had to put a 5/16" bamboo plug on top of the cartridge to get the clearance right.
I love the pen for the price though as it's well made. I really love that Schmidt rollerball, that's the first time I've written with one.
I found the problem after watching Lazerline instructions for a similar pen I had the spring on the wrong end.
