Hi, I am just starting out and have only made a few pens. I am having a problem with the final fit and finish.
After I have turned the blank flush to the bushing, I am applying a CA finish. I don't think I am applying to much CA based on all the videos I have watched. Usually 5 coats of medium CA
Once assembled, the polished pen blank is no longer flush with the nib or center ring. There is a slight lip.
Do I need to be sanding slightly past the bushing to achieve a final flush finish?
