    This is a mod I came up with after messing around with some G2's one day. It spins well, and only uses 2 pilot G2's!



    G2²



    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Stats:

    G2²

    COG=COP
    [Length]: 20 cm
    [Weight]: 12g
    [Style]: Single sided
    [Writing-Mechanism]: Retractable
    [Ink-Type]: Gel
    [Estimated cost]: $3.50

    ------------------------------------------------------------

    Pens Needed:


    (2) Pilot G2's


    ---------------------------------------------------------


    Spoiler:
    1. Disassemble both pens and keep only the parts seen below... There is only one of the small clicker pieces in the picture, but you need one from each pen. So there should be two.


    2. Put together one of the G2s with only the spring and ink tube inside. Remove the black piece off the back, and sand down the plastic underneath it until the back portion of the second G2 will fit on to it snugly.


    3. Empty the second ink tube and cut off about 4.4 cm. I would recommend cutting off more and trimming it down as needed.


    4. Put the cut section of ink tube into the back of the sanded G2. it should slide easily through the back of the pen.



    5. Place the two smaller clicker pieces then the longer clicker piece into the back of the second G2 as seen below.



    6. This is now what you should have.



    7. Put the back of the second G2 onto the back of the first G2.


    8. Add an outsert, and now you have your G2².

    Quite what I wanted. But the only disadvantage is that you can only put outserts. I dont like the feel of the outsert but anyways nice job.. clap.gif

    could have been cleaner and there are a few of these already
    this one is simpler than the others but looks weak

    i personally wouldn't make it due to the sanding and i know that part of the body is thin and cracks easily

    ppl make g2^2 and g2 extentions all of the time no need for this to b approved IMO

    It looks pretty cool...
    I'll try it out!, I have to do something about the outsert problem though.... Its not my thing to put an outsert.

    umm... I think you need to check again. There's no way that this pen weighs 18g. That's heavier than a Dr. KT.
