Caballero bushing question

[cseymour]

Hello All,
Does anyone have any instructions / diagrams that show the order for the Caballero bushings?
The instructions on the site don't seem to show this (unless I missed it).


Thank you


Chris

The caballero is a little unique.


The body bushings are .468 and .478 inches, very similar size.


However, after measuring these, the corresponding parts are the shoulder of the finial and the shoulder of the nib coupler. So, measuring the nib coupler we find .478 and the finial coupler (just to be certain) is .468.


The cap bushings are the same on both ends, so Voila!!!! we have determined the proper location for each bushing.


This routine will work for ALL pen kits!!! Most of the time there is a greater difference in the nib and finial. With the Caballero, you have to look closely to see which is "fatter".
