where the pen's pointing inside the turret ring i just shimmed with some plasticard, i have seen it done with four small pieces of card as in say using the points of the compass but if i remember rightly i used a length to go all the way around

Never used cable ties myself, pen was a bit misleading it think it's the inside of the hole i just glued some plasticard in there all the way around, trial and error until your happy with the fit and there's no binding.
