Hi,
I was wondering if others have a problem I have. Sometimes when I go to glue up the tube for the cap section of a Gentlemen's or Statesman pen, I have a problem with the brass tube binding up and not making it into the drilled blank all the way.
Any ideas on what I can do to avoide this? I drill it out carefully all the way through, but sometimes the tube binds up and I am left with between 1/8 to 1/4" of tube proud of the surface of the blank.
Thanks for your help!!
