    V2 Mod

    This is one of my favorite single sided mods to date. It has a superior spinning effect, can optionally be made writable, does not weigh all too much and spins beautifully. I am very proud of this mod and really enjoy spinning it.













    Questions and comments are welcome biggrin.gif

    The text is really hard to read, even if you open up youtube in a separate page. Next time I'd use colors that contrast a little more, such as black and white, to make the text stand out more. Also, in the materials you list a CT cap as a material. You might want to clarify that it is the small cap and the "plug" thing from the CT. Also, having for the weight that is more than an S777 Mx isn't very informative, seeing as not many people have a universal weight of S777 MX to compare to. It would also help having a pen weight larger than it so that a more relative weight can be established. I also think this would probably add up to more than $15, but that's just me.

    Oh well. That's my 2 cents. Take it or leave it.

    wowee thats a mouth full....

    are you sure that red doesnt contrast with white? cuz i think that any color contrasts with white, seeing as its... well... white

    if you read the tutorial and see CT cap but then view further and see that in the first picture its the small one, they can put two and two together and realize that its the small cap

    the "plug" is technically the backcap cuz its the thing that comes out of the CT body

    i agree that an s777 mx isnt a universal mod, but its the best comparison i have since i have no access to any immediate scales that weigh in grams

    if you bought every pen in its entirety, sure the cost would be a bit over 15 dollars, but if you have some spare parts like the bic cap or the ct small cap and backcap then the cost would be significantly lowered, hence why its a range between 10 and 15 dollars

    I know that one can infer that it is the small cap and back plug you're talking about, it just would've been nicer to be more specific and put "small CT cap". It just leaves no margin for guessing or error.

    Can the flexgrip elite tip be subbed for something else?
    Like signos, gripmatics, etc..

    im sure that any mod that has external threads will fit inside a bic cap. maybe telescopic will work? meteor? but then again, with a flexgrip, its already balanced and if you use a different tip you will have to find a way to balance it out again.
