No, Scott, your post didn't upset me. No one else's did either for that matter. It's just that this post went every where except where I envisioned and I got tired of feeling beat up over it. And never seemed to focus on the original point... the threads are not cut right. Yes you can still tighten the mechanism up, and yes I will continue to make these as long as they sell, or until the quality gets so bad I find them no longer exceptable. And yes, I will continue to expain to my customers how to change the refills. But none of that was the original point. Nor was I trying to cast dispersions on the kit. Only what seems to be a lack of QC in a new kit. But if no one cares, so be it. The evidence is clear, at least to those willing to look at it. Some would rather blindly accept what they are given. I have no problem with that as long as they don't expect the same of me.
I have a question for you about your little trick. After using the rubber band to tighten the tranny can you still unscrew it with the barrel on? I'm not trying to be critical, I'm just thinking it might be too tight for that. Or is that the point?

] I agree that those threads are not right. In fact I can find no thread standard that they adhere to. It seems that the lower section is a square thread and the twist mechanism section is some sort of modified buttres(sp?) type thread. I hope that they will be changed for the better sometime in the future. For now, my workaround will suffice for me.
