Was wondering if any of you pen turners had a El Grande Fountain pen kit still in the package. I got a little aggressive when trying to square the ends of the blanks. It blew the blanks. I ordered new brass barrels but they are the same size and I think the fountain pen lower brass should be shorter than the pen kit. If I could get some measurements it would be a big help. Thanks.
