The only thing I I don't like about making slimline pens,is if I just assemble the pen as normal,if you the least bit heavy handed,you can twist the pen to far,so the upper barrel slips,resulting in mis-aligning the wood grains.It's not a problem on burls,but on straight grained wood it is.
Early on,I learned not to use loctite,as those were impossible to separate to change the refill.
So there is that tricky balance...you want it to separate good,but not slip when it's twisted.
Any hot tips on what works good?
Thanks for any feedback!
