I've just started turning pens, and yesterday when I was demonstrating how to replace the Cross refill on a slimline, the wood on the top half of the pen decoupled from the barrel. I.e., the wood "sleeve" is now loose.
The barrel was originally glue in using thick CA, the wood is walnut. What's the likely cause of the failure of the glue bond, and what's the best solution now?
