If I buy a precut blank from a vendor like Pens Of Color do I need to dry them or have they been sufficiently dried. The reason I ask is that on my first 2 pens I have noticed cracking at the end of the barrel where it meets the silver band. The only thing I did was clamp it in a vise to try and disassemble it so I could turn it down a bit more. What would have caused the cracking, the drying or the squeezing of the vise on the barrel end?
