Has anyone had problems with their Whidden bullet pointer?

Bugger, mine is also alloy. Purchased about 12 months ago. Has done approx. 600 cycles and the thread shows signs of distress. Would be interested in what Whidden's fix is.

Hi All,

Just to update. Today I recieved replacement parts for my die courtesy of John Whidden. These parts are his own product rather than Forster and incorporate a courser pitch thread. They are still alloy.

His response was VERY GOOD and had no hesitation in fixing the problem.

I'm a very happy camper.

I'd be interested in some photos of the new parts if you can PM me or post on the forum?
