I put my first fountain pen together, it came out nice, and I went to screw the cap on and there are no threads on the cap??? I looked everything over and realize that the threads are on the black plastic piece I thought was to protect the nib during shipping. Aaarrghhh! So I have two questions... How do I get this apart without destroying anything? I have a transfer punch set from HF. Do I first use a punch to get the cap off then use another punch to come back the other way and get the trim ring off?
I'm shocked that for the money this kit is using plastic threads.
Thanks for any help or tips you can offer.
