I always held the spindle on the smaller end that goes into the block so that if I ended up with any dings I could take a small file and dress that area up a bit. Don
Well I thought I put it on only finger tight.. but my assumption is the screwing down the outside section tightened the inside part.

I'll try the carboard on the THIN section tonight.

Note: upon reflection - I did not hold the inner screw steady with a wrench while screwing down the outside section- so it tightened it down the inner screw way too much.
