Thanks! And, yes, that hoop pivots in either direction, freeing up access to that top 'cap' to twist and activate the lead advancing. I'll be honest: I haven't had the balls to try to pull up on the cap, this is a very unknown piece to me (on top of my not being a pencil guy). Any comments in this area are welcome.
Cheers,
Jon
