The Axminster Pen Assembly Press (Part no. 200205) is a very useful accessory for these operations, as it gives greater control over the applied force and keeps the components in line. Put a couple of drops of glue (added security) on the Centre Band and press it on to the prepared journal at the lower end of the Upper Pen Body.
