    Weight: DXMX = 15g = Signo Tipped Comssa

    Estimated-Cost: 10~15$
    -------------------------------------------------



    Spoiler:

    Things needed:
    • Rsvp (No Grip)
    • Profile Grip
    • Signo DX Grip and Tip
    • Signo Broad Grip
    • Jimni/HyperJell Grip
    • Tape

    (Broad and Profile Not Shown)


    1. Disassemble the RSVP and sand off the bump on the front (part holding grip in place).


    2. Take the Jimnie/HyperJell grip and cut it to look like this. Its about 1cm for the back part, and and 3cm for the bigger part.


    3. For the Profile grip, you will need the first 3 bands, the last 3 bands, and 2 bands from the middle.


    4. For the Broad grip, you will need a 1cm piece and a .5cm piece.


    5. Take the Signo tip and wrap tape around it till the G3 tip will fit snuggly on it.


    6. Slide the grips on in this order (front of pen), Jimnie 1cm, Broad 1cm, then DX grip. Wrap a little tape under the Broad grip to make it stay on tightly, also wrap enough on so that it stretches out the Broad grip till its even with the DX and Jimnie grip. About 8 layers of tape.

    Spoiler:

    7. Take the two tapped together tips and slide them onto the front of the pen. The DX grip will hold them on really well. Then slide the 2 middle bands of the Profile over the G3 tip, it should stay on nice, if not, wrap tape on it.


    8. Front is done, now the back. Slide the HGG tip into the RSVP cap, then put in the Jimnie grip. To get the Jimnie grip in, use the HGG inserting method for the Mx^2.


    9. Then put in the smaller piece of Broad grip. WARNING! The Jimnie grip will form a slant no matter how straight your cut is. So to make up for this, make a slant cut in the Broad grip (very slight) or slightly make a slant cut on the Jimnie grip so it goes in straight.


    10. Put the 6 bands of Profile grip onto the cap of the RSVP (3 last bands first, then 3 front bands) (Optional: Put two bands of Sailor grip between the Profile grip like in the picture.)


    Optional steps:
    • Sand down the clip on the RSVP like for the GSXA and then slide Profile grip over.
    • Erase text on RSVP barrel.
    • Cut design into Signo Dx grip and put colored paper under it (wrapped with tap, like Ayatori).



    FAQ

    Q: I dont have any Broad grips, subs?
    A: Use another Signo Dx grip i guess, or maybe RSVP. Dimpled grips may make it look funny.

    Q: I dont have a G3 tip, what should i do?
    A: Put 2 signo tips in the front, adjust grip lengths in the front, and add 2 more bands of grip to the cap.

    Q What do you mean wrap tap around till the Broad grip is even with the other grips?
    A: The Signo Broad Grip is thinner than the other grips, wrapping tap where it goes makes it thicker, it will become flush with the other grips with enough tape.

    Q: Why is this FaQ so short?
    A: Cause i dont know what else to put.

    Q: You suck!
    A: Nah son, your mom does though biggrin.gif

    Thanks G10 for the name biggrin.gif

    Looks really nice. biggrin.gif

    I'm going to try this out when I get more parts.

    I don't have any name suggestions unfortunately, but I think that the mod would look better if you sand down the RSVP clip completely like you mentioned.

    Still, nice job! thumb.gif

    Does it matter its a variation? I notice a lot you denote things as "variations". Well there are a few mods in Approved Tutorials that can be counted as "variations" (M^2, V7 comssa....) But they are still approved. Cause they do and use things that havent been seen in tuts before. Variation or not, its still different

    Please stop saying its just another variation. In the long run, everything can be classified as a variation. Mx^2 is just a variation, DB7 Comssa is just a variation, MSXA is just a variation, MPFX is just a variation, so many things are variations. Why do you need to keep saying?

    how about RSVP DX ?
    named from RSVP + signo DX.

    suggestion: put a pic of the finished pen in the beginning?

    That way we have a better idea of what each part is trying to accomplish, and also keeps us more interested through the tutorial.

    Or in my case, i just look at the finished pen first. If I don't like what I see, I don't even bother clicking the spoiler tongue.gif
