Pen Tip Not flush with Turned Wood

[llmarsh3]

Occasionally I will have a pen tip that's not flushed with wood and feels sharp if you slide your finger over it. Is there a way I can smooth that out without scratching the pen tip? I'm using CVA glue for a finish.
Thanks.

If I understand your metal pen tip is not the same diameter as the barrel. If so, Ditch using bushings, turn between centers and use calipers.

Actually what I was trying to say there is a spot that is not flush with the pen tip and it has sharp edge to it. Normally the wood and metal are flush when using a bushings but occasionally there is an area not flush. I was wondering if there was a way to take the edge off that. The pen is still acceptable but wanted to make it a bit better without scratching metal tip. I'm sure others have had that happen.
Just asking.
Thanks.

Can you disassemble it and turn it?

Make sure the inside of your Morse tapers are free of debris.

Good idea. I found that a 20 gauge brass brush cleans the tapers.
