Hello,
I am experimenting with a kitless el grande using the tap and die from the group buy. I am not using brass tubes in the pen.
What type of closed end mandrel do you use for this? I have the AZ Silloutte closed end el grande mandrels but given I am not using the brass tubes they do not seem to work. i.e. the hole size is different given no brass tube
How do you get the tap and die to cut straight threads?
How do you hide the clip on this larger style pen? I have seen a tutorial for the Americana but that does not seem to apply to the el grande...
Thanks in advance for replying...
