Hi all. My grandson turned a very nice pen but the tip was damaged in assembly. How would remove it? Pliers? Hi all.

Assuming you haven't already installed the twist mechanism, use a transfer punch or sacrifice an old drill bit and drive it out from the opposite end. Firm, repeated taps are better than a mighty whack.

If you've installed the twist mechanism, and assuming it's a 7 mm twist mechanism, a 1/8" transfer punch fits in the hole of the twist mechanism. Same as above... firm, repeated taps.

Looks like some chipping occurred at the end of the barrel that might need attention.
