Penbbs 308

[lovementos]

This is amazing! It saves me the time of having to carefully look at each photo to figure out which colors are opaque.

Thanks so much!!

I might have to update that particular column. A lot of them are slightly translucent under good lighting conditions.

Has anyone had problems with cap threading of 308?

 

I have two 308s. In one of them, cap twists very smoothly and stays securely in place.

 

In the other one the cap is very loose. The threads are much less smooth and it wobbles, the cap just doesn't stay screwed, unless I really force it to get tight, which makes me worried I could damage the plastic. Without that just picking up this pen usually is enough to make the cap loose.

 

The only solution I was able to came up with so far is to put some silicon grease on the threads - this makes the cap twist and stay in place a lot better, but I end up having silicon grease on my fingers while writing. Plus it's a very short-term solution, due to how often I cap and uncap the pen and unwillingly wipe the silicon grease with my fingers, it quickly wears off.

 

Any possible better solutions?

Did you buy from the official PenBBS Ebay / Etsy store?

I suggest contacting them and request for replacements, sounds like a defect.
