    To cut down on the massive amount of redundant threads asking for substitutes, colors, locations where a pen can be bought, etc. it's best to check here first before making a thread on it. I'm still in the process of consolidating all redundant threads into one.

    Ahmm... (Forgive me if this be a wrong place for my topic)


    Are the Lil' Hands Coloring Pens suitable for the body for an M&M KT or such?


    I made a mod using some...

    Pilot SuperGrip Grips
    Some random Pen Caps (Not sure what they're called)
    2 Lil' Hands Coloring Pens (Blue and Brown. Oh man, I shoulda used pink smile.gif) )


    The Mod is still crappy but long...

    don't know its dimensions (length, COG, etc...)


    EDIT: here's the link to a photo
    My Home Made M&M (?)


    can someone please help?

    ive never seen that pen before
    attach it to some kt caps and see if it holds well

    Date: Sat, Feb 21 2009 04:48:13

    that's good (no one hasn seen it before... smile.gif )


    i think the cover of the pen (the blue and the brown) are a bit too long.


    and I don't have bucks to buy kt caps. I'm in the philippines...


    huhuhuhuhu.....

    How do you expect use to know if we havent seen the pen/ had the pen/ and you arent able to get KT caps...
    the only way that it is a kt body sub is if it is the same length and the kt caps fit on.

    just cut the caps to the length that you want and add some grips to it and voila!

    That will only make the mod shorter, not a well-substituted KT.

    @Topic starter, the no one can answer your question if no one has ever seen that pen before. Listen to Stevie.

    As far as my knowledge goes, the rsvp razzle dazzle will still have the black ball in the cap, while the black rsvp color will not.

    Why is it that most of the pens we want (dong-a computer sign pen, ohto needle points, pentel color twins, and others) can't be bought on their company's site? I went to dong-a's site, no computer sign pen. I went to Pentel's international store; no color twin, watercolor pen, or keityos. I went to Ohto's official site, no needle point.

    I bet if I go to other sites and try to find other modding pens, they won't have it. These companies have it on the shelves, but they don't even distribute them online.

    The companies cannot sell in small quantites because, well, its just a total waste of their time.
    They would have to hire a division to take care of that, set up the website, have a money system implimented there... and a ton of other things.
    Instead, they sell in large quantities (boxes, crates) to save money, and get more product out at once.

    But when i go to their official sites, the don't even sell a pack of a type of modding pen (ex: I went to Pentel's official site; no watercolor pens or color twins were being displayed.)

    If you want to buy boxes of pens, you'd have to set up an order with them.
    im sure if you phoned them theyd send you a catalogue.

    You do realize boxes mean thousands right?

    the point is that they wont just sell to any joe shmo.
    They want their product to get out there, in large amounts.

    From personal experience, because its barrel is too thick. pullhair.gif

    Note that this may not be correct as other reasons, for example being too heavy or long, may factor into this reason.

    You have to stretch them slightly.
    Its mean to hold the dr.grip tip to the cap, its not gonna fit on lightly.
    PLUS its alot easier to fit on if you cut it like you're supposed to for a dr.kt

    I'm not sure if you posted this in the right thread but I don't know.You're from the U.S. so it shouldn't be hard to find those they should be at most regular stores i.e. Office Max, Office Depot, Staples, Walmart. Most places that sell pens should have it. I don't think that there is just an easy sub for it at all.

    ayatori mod spins similar to a double sided mod, and so does a kUzu. Those 2 pens may be good to transition from double sided to single sided, although the kUzu is really heavy.

    If you take the meaning of subbing as being able to replace that part in the mod then no, twinart caps are in no way a comssa cap sub as hgg tips cant be screwed into them.

    Btw, there's no need for this topic. Just post in quick modification questions or something.

    What is the difference in the grip between new and old sarasas?
    Never seen an old one before.

  70. Glamouraz
    Date: Sun, Jan 10 2010 13:25:53

    The old ones say sarasa gel on the clip.

    The new ones say sarasa clip.

    I think the grip is different also.

    They have the same amount of rings, but the G2 is a little bit longer. But it's just about one "ring size" longer, so they are almost identical.

    Not much diff but it makes a BIG diff if u're thinking of making a toro mx smile.gif or any other RSVP mod with a supergrip at the front

    In terms of gripavaire there's basically no noticeable difference but if you are using each ring there maybe a difference. Plenty of subs out there though that are very similar like colin's yellow g2 sub

    the inverse seven (like TEKs ?) is usually using a lightgrey laknock grip... which is from a real grey laknock.
    The white opaque grip IS from a sub pen/pencil, although i have no idea as to what it looks like.

    A tinted american jimnie is a tinted hyperjell, easy to imagine.

    A japanese janmee aka jap. jimnie is actually called Zebra Jimnie Classic.
    It has the other style clip that makes entirely decliping the cap extremly similar to a G3.
    which makes for a smooth nice cap afterwards.

    Yeah it is just identical just tinted and non tinted. It is really awkward that normal tinted jimnies are still widely available and that the non tinted ones are getting more rare doesn't seem to be a production advantage of any kind.

    They're New HGR.
    Not really sure how he got them in the bellcolor caps, because HGR tips fit into comssa caps, but bellcolor caps don't hold them, they don't fit in. He might have used a dremel to widen the top of the cap, or maybe he filed them down.
    Honestly, you'd have to ask TEK, and He never replies to PM's involving mods, so hope you catch him in the SB.

    Ohkay but according to this Wikipedia page on Dr. Grip, G-spec Dr. Grips are the Japanese original version of the American Center of Gravity Dr. Grip. Is that wrong then?

    Which version would I use?

    G-spec=COG. But the one that you want to use is the Dr. Grip Japanese Shakers. They use the tip in Dr. KT's. Also the grip is useful

    g-specs are manufactured both in japan and america
    (although certain versions are only available in japan)

    Japanese g-specs came first, then america
    the japanese ones have a locking system built in

    don't use a g-spec tip, they are smaller and lighter

    it's an rsvp. it's a hard body. It's going to feel slick. You can try scuffing up the entire body with an eraser and this should make it less slick.

    yeah, they're the same, other than that sunburst fine has different writing and less colors.



    o what colors do they come in?

    If its just the tip, it should be fine. Just do it carefully.

    xacto is the best.
    it's worth buying.
    but a knife will work fine.
    don't use scissors, they'll fuck it up; they're not a good modding tool.
    especially for grips

    G3s are more commonly used for famous Japanese personal mods. (Because G3s are easier to find in Japan)
    But you have to cut the barrel in almost every mod you make out of them.

    Most RSVP mods don't require barrel cutting that have as much room for error as G3s do.

    I like R.S.V.P's more for spinning because the body is long,therefore you have more spinning space.

    TBH I think there should be more RSVP mods than G3. The body is all round better :/

    Both pens are really useful in modding. You cant really choose between these two mods.

    If there were no G3's then there would be no Minwoo Mod, no Key3, no kuzu, no seven etc etc

    If there were no RSVP's there would be no Mx, no Impact Mx, no Msxa etc

    G3's are better for tip stacking since the tip is wider, the under grip area is wider and the tip also unscrews. The G3 also has a more versatile back as it can fit most caps and does not take up as much space as the RSVP back plug. The G3 also has a metal tip version and the caps are very useful too as it can hold bigger tips/more grip than an RSVP cap.

    similar texture
    g3 is thicker thou
    the g3 spinning space is actually longer, but since the cap goes onto the barrel most of the time it is shorter but not always depends on how far on you place the cap
