    Hi! I am the chili pepper.
    originally from perkiomen valley, Pennsylvania
    PS'ing for about a month
    more into modding then spinning
    I recently made my own mod and was wondering if I ought to post the tutorial, if so where?
    I got into PSing mainly for something to do in school, kinda as my alternative to butterfly knives. (REPRESENT!)

    Welcome chili pepper. I have been spinning for 2 months.

    Post your mod in the show of your pens thread. See if people want a tut.

    Hey guys, i'm out of a camera right now so i can't take a picture of the mod. I will post the tutorial for it here preemptively.

    materials:
    1 crayola supertips marker- body
    2 spinz ronin- tips and grips
    2 bic round stic grip- the grip, back plug, cap, and ink tube with the front section it comes in (everything but the barrel o.0)
    2 papermate profile or anyball- grips
    a very small outsert
    tape
    some sort of saw

    step 1- disassembly
    gut the marker of its end cap and inktube, then cut off the thinner part from the front so it is just a tube
    take off the ronin tip and grip, cut the grip in half
    take the bic stics and disassemble. take off the grip, cap, end plug, and the inktube and its "housing"
    cut off three rings of grip from the profile grip, you will need the larger piece

    step 2- assembly
    start by shoving the grip things of the round stics into both ends of the marker until they will fit the bic caps on the ends fairly snugly
    take the inktube assembly thing and shove it into the grips sticking out of both ends of the markers (one will be very difficult to get into the marker, try cutting the inktube assembly thing until it fits snugly)
    (The body is now done)
    take the bic caps and hollow out the ends so there is a hole there
    take the ronin tips and screw the bic back plugs into them so the bigger end of the back plug is firmly stuck but isn't more than a mm or 2 into the metal tip
    put an outsert around the caps, then put the 1/2 ronin grip on the thickest portion of the cap
    shove the tip and back plug assembly into the newly cut hole in the bic caps and put the profile grips on the tips to hold them and spin!

    Hello nice to see your enthusiasm to share your pen mod. It'll be best if you show your pen first on this thread:
    http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=2092&hl=
    If people request for a tutorial then by all means show it. You would avoid a lot of ridiculous flaming. However, don't mistake UPSB, we're all pretty friendly (most of us.) Enjoy your time here!
    Also if you post your mod tutorial here not many will see it so post it in the correct section under tutorials pending approval
