    Default First cartridge pen question

    I am in the process of making my first cartridge pen and have a question. I am using the projectile for the tip. Has anyone ever had problems when pressing the twist mechanism and damaging the lead tip? I am almost ready to put it together but I am concerned with damaging the tip.

    Thanks

    Go to LittleRiverCraft's website, he shows a little jig that allows the pressure to be taken on the shoulder of the cartridge.
