so i was trying to tighten my headset. noticed the bottom plug (female end) that the allen screws into. long day, mind blanked and i was like, what is that. maybe it needs to be tightened since my headset is some play in it despite being a brand new bike and tightening to specifications. i put an allen into it to tighten and it literally just pushed down into the fork. how do i get it to come out?

I didn't look at the video, but the steerer tube is probably too long.

This, OR add another spacer into the stack somewhere.

Recently did a friends bike and it needed a spacer under the top cap even with what appeared to be a nice amount of clearance between the top of the stem and the top of the fork steerer.

The top cap was a strange (i.e. Not like any of mine) design which protruded downwards quite a lot and it bound just before everything went tight.
