Hello i bought a fair few random pens from office works yesterday (im in australia btw) and i wanted to make a hgg2 and it turned out crap so i was on upsb and some guy said make my own mod so i did.
materials:
zebra Jimnie
Pilot super grip
pliers
any type of tape make sure its thin!
a spare grip ( this is used as a filler.
a long ink tube ( i used kilometrico)
OPTIONAL: a high/low temp glue gun
Attributes:
almost perfect COG
writes
a large grip
not liquid ink to it won run through/leak
long! it's the same length as hgg2
the best attribute of all I MADE it UP ALL BY MY SELF!!!!!!
ok step 1: take the jimnie apart u will only need the grip and front section.
step 2: take apart the super grip, you will only need the back part and grip.
strep 3: get your pliers and pull the clicky part on the back of the super grip out (this is a bit hard to get out, if ur a pussy get someone else to do it XD)
step 4: take apart ur kilometrico and get the ink tube
Step5: take the little click part out of the super grip and put a little bit of rubber in the end ( just do it)
step 6: put the jimnie grip on the front part of the jimnie and put the super grip on the back part of the super grip.
step 7: put the ink tube in the front part of the jimnie and put a little tape on the threaded part of the super grip.
step 8: put the two parts together and either sticky tape em or glue gun em or glue gun em and sticky over the glue. sorry about no pic ;(
if u got any problems email me on [email protected] (im happy for u to add me) peace out XD
heres the url to the finished product (if i had better tools it woulddn't have the tape on it) http://profile.imageshack.us/user/wongaling -

Tutorials with no pictures are generally frowned upon. Even if you cant make a good tutorial you should at least have a "final product" picture.

no offense, but It seems like a sloppy mod...Nice effort though, I don't wanna sound harsh, but I just personally think the mod could be done a bit smoother judging by the pictures.

seems unstable and not very appealing. Nice try though

1.sloppy
2. not appealing
3.instead of tape or lgue try something else
3. u can use a tooth pick to extend the inktube
4. try to get 1 grip on 1 end, if not 2(1 on each end) -

The best way to make a pen look appealing IMO is to actually make it look like a normal pen. The way you would do that in your case is not have two grips in a row

I could see ur effort. i could give a good job for that.
but the pen looks too sloppy like the others say. it doesn't look like it would spin good.
