    So i made this mod because i really wanted to be able to spin while still maintaining a very "Pen" appearance. I didnt cut off the clip on the zebra cap because i felt that the pen wouldnt be a pen anymore.

    RSVP SK-CX

    COG => Center of Pen
    Length => 19.8 cm
    Weight => About 22.6 g
    One sided Fixed writing end
    Uses RSVP Ink
    Approx Cost => 10$

    So, Things you need

    • 1 Pentel RSVP
    • 1 Zebra Hyper Jell Cap
    • 2 Impact RT grips (Or one impact RT grip and the Zebra Grip)
    • 2 Impact Tips
    • 1 HGG Tip
    • 1 Sailor Gel Grip


    Step 1:
    Saw 1.8 cm off the top of the RSVP Cap, remove the clip entirely
    This leaves about 4 cm of the cap leftover

    Step 2:
    Tape the Impact Tip onto the RSVP Cap

    Step 3:
    Cut two segments from the Impact grip that measure .8 cm. Cut one more segment that is 1 cm
    Cut two segments from the Sailor Grip that each are two rings thick

    Place the first .8cm impact segment followed by a sailor segment. Do this one more time. Then add the 1 cm segment to the tip

    Finished Cap

    Steb 4:
    Cut 3 segments from the impact or zebra grip that each measure .6 cm
    Cut 2 rings from the sailor grip
    - The rings for the sailor grip are a bit too big so you need to cut them to make them smaller
    - You need to make it so the Sailor Grip will fit nicely inside the Zebra Cap

    Place the HGG Tip inside the Impact tip and glue/tape it in there so it doesn’t rattle
    Place the Impact/HGG Combo into the cap and then place each grip inside (Alternating the colors)

    Finished Back Cap

    Place the Cap onto the back end of the RSVP (The grip inside should be enough to hold it)
    Throw and insert in there and spin/write away!

    This Pen is pretty durable but i would advise you not to drop it from high altitudes onto hard surfaces (duh) as it's susceptible to crack (duh again)
    Also some RSVP caps aren't as stable when doing infinities. Mine never really has had that problem but someone told me that it could happen. If it does then idk what to tell you *shrug*

    Yeah I remember seeing this pic posted in sb.

    It's pretty creative (i like how the rsvp cap in the front just clicks in place).

    Oh and p.s.
    if ur using photobucket, try using those IMG links that they have.
