    Welcome to my first tutorial! This is my latest mod and I call it HGGSG because it uses just HGGs and Super Grips.






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

    HGGSG
    COG=COP
    Length: 21cm (can be changed easily)
    Weight: Dr.KT>HGGSG>Comssa Metallic
    Style:double sided, non-retractable
    Estimated cost:11-14€ (in Finland)
    -----------------------------------------------------

    Things you need:

    2x HGG (barrel and tips)
    3x Pilot Super Grip (grips) (can be substituted by G2 grips but I think you have to use some tape to make them stay)
    1x barbecue stick (20,3cm long)
    cutting tools (for grips and barrel) (no in picture)
    tape (wide is better) (not in picture)



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


    Spoiler:
    1.) Cut both of the HGG's at 5cm from the place where grip used to be. If you use a saw, I think you don't get those cracks, but I'm too lazy to use a saw.


    2.) Wrap some tape around the barbecue stick. There should be just enough tape to make the barbecue stick fit tight inside the HGG barrels.


    3.) Put the barbecue stick into other HGG barrel and put the other HGG barrel so that barbecue stick remain inside the HGG barrels. Wrap some tape outside the barrels too to avoid the pen to bend.


    4.) (Optional) Cut Super Grip grips to following ring sections: 2 black, 2 blue, 2 black, 2 blue, rest of black and put them to there where HGG grips used to be. Do that for both sides of the pen.


    When you have done that your done!



    You can use insert or outsert but I like it like that. You can change the length by cutting the HGG barrels longer or shorter. Barbecue stick also needs to be recutted then. This is an easy mod to make so I don't make troubleshooting if there doesn't come a lot of questions.

    Comments please!

    It's kind of like an HGG Vortex but instead of comssa caps, you put grips.
    It's not bad.

    Edit: actually instead of HGG grips you put G2 grips.

    I think you can use signos, not sure. I have too much HGG bodies too and that's why I made this. How can you have G2 grips lying around? Grip is only part of G2 what I use. I'm happy if even 1 of you make my mod happy.gif

    Looks like a simple, yet decent-looking mod. thumb.gif

    The only problem is the body looks a bit ugly, but it can be easily cleaned up by adding an outsert. wink.gif
