    Ok, this is a thread where you can request to see a specific modding technique filmed in a tutorial-like video. I would be more than happy to answer some questions with videos and then post them in the quick modifications thread. I just want this to be the thread where requests are made.

    So say you wanna see how to disassemble a G2 (example), then i will make a video showing just that tongue.gif if it can be answered with a quick answer then i wont make a video on it so ask wisely!

    Go!

    how the F can you get the clicker out of a Zebra Airfit retractable pen. it looks like two pieces b/c of the clear part.

    why would you want to get the clicker out in the first place? and best thing to do is break open the body

    Wow. I just poked it out with the air fit inktube. It took < 10 seconds.

    try to save the quick answer questions for the quick modification thread, just ask big questions that litterally do require a video to explain to be requested here

    removing an hgg grip that's held on very tightly by the hgg body.

    Cutting vynyl tape designs and putting them on the pen.

    well the only way i have found is to either spin it off (which takes forever) or use the paper method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzaAtX3i8DU and spin until it gets the feeling like a miffy

    you need to keep in mind that rubbing off a design also takes off the finish of the pen leaving the raw plastic beneath so it is going to have that strange feeling

    if you are lucky enough to own a buffing wheel, then that would add some shine to it afterwards, but might also make it slippery.

    @essenceoflife - i will make those videos after i get back from the gathering (hopefully with a fresh hgg to work on too)

    Maybe do 1 video with several pens. like part of the video on removing HGG grips, and another part on removing some other hard grip like impact RT. so I'd reccamend to how remove several different grips in one video

    Use quick modifications thread for help on things; guitrum can decide to respond with a video response or not if he sees the question there.
    If you want, you can still PM guitrum for help on modifications problems and ask him there instead of on this thread.

    This thread is pretty much useless since you can just use quick modifications.
