Took my shiny new 24/40 case out for a test drive this past weekend. Did 3 flights, all went well.
The last flight was on an F39T. (These have a C-slot) The insulator sleeve was a very loose fit in the tube, actually rattled around (width/diameter wise, not length wise) before tightening the closures. It burned a slot completely through for much of the length of the insulator. Didn't scar the tube, however. Toothpick is for reference, I wasn't planning on serving as an hors d'oeuvre.
Is this normal?
Thanks,
Hans.
