Triton pen blanks on Jr. Gent II

[Jdubfudge]

I have a few triton feather blanks but don't have any Triton pen kits. I do have some CSUSA Artisan Jr. Gent II nonpostable roller ball kits available. From what I understand they do work together, kind of. If I read the forums correctly, I can get the Triton blanks to work on the Jr Gent II kit but need to add a longer spring. So I have a few questions:
1. Am I correct or do I have it backwards?
2. How long of spring is required?
3. Where do I get the springs?
4. Is it worth it? I'm not short on cash so I can purchase Triton kits if I need to. I'm just really impatient and want to turn some pens.

The triton tubes are SHORTER than jr series. IF they work, the spring will be very tight. Personally, I would get the triton kits--shame to make a jury-rigged pen out of nice blanks.

Your pen, certainly YOUR choice.

FWIW,

There are several kits in the gent jr series that use the shorter lower tube length. I,e. Arron, panda etc. plus the fudge factor on the gent series is a good amount of space.
