Need Help With Montblanc Meisterstuck Pencil

[jimmymcgeehan]

Hello, so my MB Meisterstuck Classique Pencil has recently stopped working. I discovered it when the cap would not fully go back on after I replaced the lead. The twist mechanism seems fine, but there are two pieces that I have no clue where they belong. The first is a metal ring with a plastic tube on the top (or bottom?) Of it. The second is just a small plastic cylinder. The cylinder was stuck in thecap, but I managed to get it out and have no idea where to put it. Any help would be great! Thanks.

Could you show us a few photos?

Hi

 

It should look something like this. I guess the nut that holds the clip and snowcap on has parted company from the 'inner cap'. Unscrew the snowcap to release it. The parts may be just a friction fit, but it might be broken.

I do not think you are supposed to take the cap apart to replace the lead, at least I do not.

Hello Zaphod.

 

You are correct. I dismantled the cap to show the OP what his pencil should look like if he did the same. His has come apart, may be broken, and he does not know how to put it back together.

 

Two heads are definitely better than one.

Brilliant! Douglas Adams could have written that!

 

Now there's a thought for a WE
