I've never done one of those so decided last night to tackle one. Turned out well, but I had to use pliers on the nib to pull it apart for refills. Couldn't get enough grip on the nib even with a rubber jar opener.
What have you guys done to loosen the pressfit between the top of the transmission and the upper tube? I can't let a pen out in the wild if the refill can't be replaced without damaging the nib (I wrapped the nib with the above jar opener then used the pliers, but the jaws were sharp and cut through the rubber. blech)
EDIT: Subject should say "Single Barrel Slim Question". Too much snow today...
