I have a couple salt mills with the ceramic insert that I got from Woodcraft. their description states "fully adjustable grind" -http://www.woodcraft.com/product/151326/salt-mill-mechanisim-8-ceramic.aspx#INFORMATION

Here is the link to their kit instructions - http://www2.woodcraft.com/PDF/77C97.pdf
On page 2 in the parts picture it shows "D" and states this is a tension band.


Chef Specialties shows a Salt mill that looks exactly the same - http://www.chefspecialties.com/catal...u5klslhp01evn7
But their instructions at this link - https://www.chefspecialties.com/HowT...eASaltMill.pdf On page 1 shows the same piece and calls it a "plastic spacer". On page 3 it states "this mechanism is not designed to be adjustable".


So my issue is once I assembled the completed salt mill and mechanism, it doesn't have a tension spring like a pepper mil does. So if the top adjustment knob is loosened the wood top gets sloppy and it loose in an up and down motion.

If I give a pepper mill/salt mill set as a gift or sell a set and have instructions printed out on how to adjust for pepper but state the salt is set for one grind I'm concerned the user will forget the salt doesn't adjust like their pepper mill and loosen the chrome knob and have them think it's poor workmanship by me.

I tried calling their customer service but they were just reading the description and instructions back to me without helping much

Any ideas?
