Ok, so this may be a very stupid question........
I did a Sierra pen the night before last and it didn't come out right. It was a disaster from the start I guess as the transmission or mecanic would'nt work once the pen was complete. That was the first issue I ran into, luckily the manager from Rockler replaced it with out question. But the biggest concern to me was the blank, it came out magnificent, it was one of the Molten metal acrylic blanks............finished amazing, but when I put it onto the pen it wasn't even, the tip end of the lb was tissue thin on one side and thick on the other. Obviously, it moved off the bushing.
So the question I have is, "Is there a special way to set up the bushings"?
I tried to fit the shoulder into the barrels but it wouldn't fit. Any help would be great.
Thanks
