    not bad work, IF i can offer one piece of advise, it would be loose the O-rings they will break in about a month or so and you will have a gap. Also as the kits are relatively cheep take your finger nail to the black ring around the tip And remove it before it starts to flake off.

    Again very nice, and good use of CA finish..

    I wondered at the point of the o rings. Nice to know I can leave them off!

    Hmmm! I think the "0" rings serve 2 purposes , one to seal any leaky inks inside the casing , and 2 to stop the cap coming loose on the threads,which is in some cases very loose. A tiny smidgeon of vaseline on the rubber keeps it smooth hehe !
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!
