    Tutorial for my Mystic MX.



    Specifications:

    Style: Double Sided
    Writable: No
    Length: ~21cm
    Weight: Pretty Light
    Cost: <$8



    [TUTORIAL]

    Pens Needed:

    2x Bic Round Stic (Both Caps and 1 Barrel)
    2x Pilot Precise V5 (Caps Only)
    2x Uniball Signo or Metal-Tipped Pilot G3 (Tips Only)
    Grips of your choice smile.gif

    Okay, this is difficult, so pay attention!

    First: Take the Bic barrel (remove the ink and back plug) and Double cap it with bic caps. Push the caps on the barrel as far as it will go... dont be afraid to use your muscles XD... just dont hurt yourself.



    Second: Take the V5 caps... Remove the plug and clip from both. Super glue, hot glue or simply shove the metal tips (Signo or G3) onto the front of the V5 caps. Cut 0.4cm from the bottom of both of the caps. Next, apply grips.



    Third: I hope I didnt lose ya, here's the hard part. Push the completed V5 cap sections onto the bic caps. They should fit snugly.

    Now, the pen might be too long, so cut the bic barrel to size it to your liking. If you want extra weight, you can put hgg tips inside the bic caps (make sure the top of the tip points inside the bic barrel).

    AND YOURE DONE!!!





    Again, this is a very customizable mod, so dont be afraid to change anything.

    I invented this because I loved the bic round stic barrel. I didnt like it much at first until I started spinning an R-Stic.

    Simple, yet wonderful. It spins better than anything that Ive spun before.

    My heavy one? It was wayyyyy too heavy for me. With the metal tips and the writing ability... my fingers hurt spinning that thing.

    Nice mod, looks good, very simple, and materials are pretty easy to get.
    Bic's skinniness doesnt bother me too much,
    hows it spin? i mean how does it compare to another pen
    also im just a little worries about spinning room, looks short

    Spinning room is customizable. I cut mine to make it shorter so the overall pen length is 21.0cm. Yours can be longer if you wish.

    Light: Add hggs inside the bic caps.
    Thin: Outsert it. Makes it a lot better.
