Yes, and I'm really thankful for that hint. I used a 1.2 mm SS spring, had to polish a little bit on the inner side on one end with the Dremel, and now it fits perfectly.
Glad I could help. Funny, I had a thread issue with my first Variant, they sent out a new one and after watching one of Mantic59’s videos, threw a Merkur cap on it and not only did it fit, it made it better. I bought 2 more Variants for my sons and picked up 2 more Merkur caps for that reason. His calibration video was awesome and I was no longer bound by the adjustment “Arrow” on that style razor.
Is there thread lock on the Flexi for disassembly? I’m taking apart my Rex soon to fix the threads and make it disassemble easier for detailed cleaning and was thinking about using my heat gun vs a torch. Gonna have to have some brake cleaner on standby to get that stuff off the threads too. Was curious if you had to do that with the Flexi.
