My stainless steel turned up today and yep it was glued shut. Pried it open and scraped the glue off. This mechanical is impossible to quieten down. It clacks against the plastic paragraphs and the body amplifies it even with POM balls. I’ve ended up using the skate track.
I'm sorry to hear that yours was also glued.. At least, it's a fixable problem. Do you have any alternate springs to try? Perhaps a shorter or weaker spring will quiet it down. Otherwise, I was thinking (haven't tried it yet), there is a tiny bit of space behind the "detent plate" that is currently in use.. I'm going to see if I can cut a piece of foam to fit behind it. Maybe it will absorb some noise. I will report back here, probably later today 👍🙂
I had some issues with inswork. I don’t buy from them anymore. I wish someone else was selling the premium ones. I have the cheap version I really like it.
