    After much testing, pen destructions, I finally came up with, in my opinion, a true pen mod.

    Here in the philippines, RSVP is currently unavailable and most of the mods featured here has pens unavailable here. So I decided to make one.

    Here it is the product of my toils and lots of unusable pens.

    "HyperG3"
    It comprises of 4 different pens.
    1. 1pc Pentel HyperBG Cap(The sibling of RSVP, but shorter in pen barrel, longer in cap)
    2. 1pc Pilot G3 Barrel
    3. 2pcs Pentel HGG Grips
    4. 1pc Dong-A anyball Tip Part.
    4. 1.5 cm to 2 cm tip part of the HyperBG
    5. 1pc Pentel HyperBG Ink tube.

    Here goes:
    1. Take the HyperBG cap and remove the clip. File or sandpaper the stub.
    2. Remove the Pilot G3 Grip. Remove the 8 protruding small squares where the grip was once there. You can use a file or cutter.
    3. Remove the back plug on the G3.
    4. Return the tip of the G3, insert the Pentel HGG grip to where the original grip of the G3 was placed.
    5. Take the Dong-A anyball HyperBG barrel(grip already removed). Measure 1.5 cm from the tip, then cut it off using a hacksaw.
    6. Insert an insert in the G3 barrel.
    7. Insert the Pentel HyperBG ink tube in the G3 barrel, with the tip reverse(in the opposite direction of the G3 barrel.
    8. Insert the Anyball tip HyperBG tip on the back end of the G3 barrel. I've used a epoxy to really secure the tip, or you can use a hot glue. This is optional.
    9. Insert the other HGG grip on the HyperBG cap making the whole grip inside the cap by a least 5mm.
    10. Then insert the cap to the end of the G3 barrel.

    And now you've got a a HyperG3. This was mod was inspired by the HG3R mod and of course the legendary RSVP MX.

    COP: Near the Center of Pen
    Length: 18.7cm

    Here's a pic. Sorry for the blurry image. I dont have a nice camera, i just used my camera phone.

    The insert i used here was for RSVP MX, so the COP marking on the insert is not entirely accurate.

    Need feedback on this mod so that I can improve it more.

    If mod is currently existing, please inform me, I'm willing to let this thread to be deleted.

    Looks cool, much like an RSVP without the RSVP laugh.gif

    By the way, how heavy does it weigh? Please do indicate how you did it (some peeps here are anal on these details XD)

    Looks OK to me. I think I might do that given the scarcity of the much sought-after RSVP XD

    @afterplace
    I cant really specify how heavy it is because i dont have any measuring devices here. Cant compare it to existing mods because i dont have any. Hopefully i can get my hands on a weighing scale of some sort. I'll be posting a detailed tutorial on how to make it because of the feedbacks. I'll be posting it a bit later cause I have a basketball game just after i post this.

    @stroud
    I really can't post any video tutorials because of my lack of equipment. I'll be posting a detailed tutorial on how to make it to compensate for it. Its 18.5cm long.

    @ellusion
    Thanks. I'm really aiming for the RSVP MX look because of the lack of RSVP here in the philippines.

    I'm thinking of renaming it to to "HyperG3" because the HGG grips are quite optional. It can be easily replaced by cheaper grips.

    So which barrel did you use? The Pentel's or the Pilot G3's?

    Btw, where did you buy the RSVP substitute? Do we have that in National Bookstores?

    Nice mod. Ima wait for da tut wink.gif

    Renamed the topic

    Renamed the mod:
    - Renamed to HyperG3. Mainly because the use of HGG grips can be optional. It can be replaced by a cheaper alternative.

    Edited 1st post.
    - Added tutorial on how to make one.

    FYI: This mod can be used to write. Just remove the cap.

    I used Pilot G3's barrel. Mainly because i can use inserts.

    Pilot G3 - Almost all bookstores has this
    HGG - Expressions
    Anyball - Not all national bookstore has this. SM department store's stationary section. There is also a clear barrel version of this, but not named as anyball. I forgot the name, I've only seen it at SM Manila department store's stationary section. I suggest you use this one.
    HyperBG - Expressions and SM department store's stationary section.

    I'm not completely sure if the dong a anyballs come in both retractable and capped, but i know the profiles do. Can you specify which type of anyball it is? I know for profiles the tips are different on each one so it needs to be clarified. otherwise it looks good, id make one if i had the parts, i love the g3 barrel.

    Im also not sure if anyballs come in capped, but I know they come in retractable and this one is what I used.

    Wow, I never had an idea there's a clear-barrel version of Anyball.

    Anyhoo, nice tut. I'll try to do one. Pilot G3's a little expensive to mutilate though laugh.gif

    It looks exactly like anyball, but named differently. I bought one, i instantly mistook it as a anyball but isn't.

    Errata:
    Edited the previous post, I mistakenly named HyperBG as hyperG. Sorry guys, for the error.

    If that pentel's says it Hyperb G, then its hyperb G. But on the cap it writes HYPERBG. V unsure.gif

    I guess we can call it both as long as it can be distinguished from other pens.

    Modified the writing end of the pen. I used the tip of Hyperbg, by cutting 2 cm from the tip, and using a hot glue, inserted it at the end of the G3 barrel.

    Forced fitting the anyball tip caused a crack on the tip end of the barrel of the G3 and also cracked the cap of the Hyperbg after sometime using the previous model.

    So far, the new version still has no crack and still stress testing it.

    This is how i attached the hyperbg tip.

    kasi, ang hyperb g, mahaba ung backplug, pati ung grip, cguro grip ay 5cm, backplug 2 cm, onti nlng space. mga 4 cm lang ata ang spinning zone. bsta. ung cap mahaba by 0.5 cm sa rsvp cap.
