I've had a few pens done now where - because of one thing or another, if I could take it apart and put it back on the lathe, I could "rescue" it.
I bought one of those "take-your-pen-apart kits" and worked out the top part, removing the cap and clip with no problems. I can remove the nib fixture (Is that what it's called?) But I cannot seem to get that twist mechanism out for anything! I handed everything over to my cousin, mechanically inclined genius. She couldn't get it out either.
What's the trick? Or did I just ruin a fair pen to make a great pen?[V]
