Date: Sun, Jun 22 2008 10:42:02QUOTE (Eriror)Hello guys and other human spinners,
A lot of people have been asking me what I spin, and if I could release a tutorial. At first, I was like: "Naw.", but I think it would make me feel a bit better when people don't constantly bother me about this pen.
So I'm going to try and make a tutorial for this wonderful mod, which was used first by Yoah in Eurocollab 2.
This is the pen:
These are the parts you will need for this:
1 RSVP
1 to 3 HGGs
1 Com-SSA cap
1 Anyball
First, you make an RSVP MX without the HGG tip on the tipside. Do not put the Com-SSA cap on it now. First remove the HGG grip again [or just not put it on] and file the thick part at the tipside of the RSVP. Here is a pic. The green part is the place that needs to be filed, and it has to be from the red lines to the black line. Make sure it's about the same width as the part where the RSVP grip used to be. This is really important, because the Com-SSA has a really great risk of breaking.
Afterwards, put a crumbled piece of paper in the Com-SSA cap [or a HGG tip with a little piece of paper, otherwise it will make noise all the time]. You can also do this in the RSVP cap, but it's not necessary. It makes for a better balance, though. Put a HGG tip on the Com-SSA cap, and perhaps some Anyball grips, and put the Com-SSA cap on the HGG grip. It should fit perfectly. Try to get it on as far as possible, but don't let the HGG grip stretch over the main part of the RSVP.
This should kinda be it. Yes, it's simple. Yes, you guys have thought that is was this before, but hey... I wanted to see if there were any flaws before you sued me because some flaw broke your pen.
It should be 21 centimeter, and a little bit more heavy than an MX. The COB of my MSXA is in the middle.
I hope you can spin with it, and have fun with it. I certainly have more fun with this than with my ComPirats myself, though.
If there are any questions, post here, and I'll see if I can answer. Comments and critisism is always allowed as well.

Overall. Is it a good pen to spin ?
Looks ?
I need to get opinions from you guys before I buy this pen <3.
It looks quite long ? XD
EDIT: Also, is it retractable ?
I couldn't find the wiki article for MSXA -

Quite like the MX, but longer...
I really liked this pen. it might not be for you if you have small hands, but otherwise, great pen IMO. -

i love my msxa it's like mx^2 but longer

Msxa is just longer than an mx. If you're 12, I suggest a v2 or Mx or mx^2. If you use an Msxa and film, you'll look like you're spinning a pool stick or something.

If I buy MXSA from Penwish, could I take off the comssa cap ? or did they just super glue it or something ?

By the way, is the pen retractable ?
Never used a RSVP before / MSXA. -

buy the parts and make it yourself. save money lol. and this probably could have been in a preexisting thread.

I'm scared I might screw things up.
Anyway, my friend said I get to spend $10 on penwish. MAXIMUM.
For free.
So .. I just got a msxa. It's coming soon. -
Date: Sun, Jun 22 2008 16:24:37
I think it's a good choice. I prefer it over an MX but it is a bit long (you'll get lots of "How long is that pen?!?")

Hand size definitely matters. If your hand is 16cm, an MSXA is going to look huge. On the other hand (pun intended), my hands are about 20/21 cm, so an MSXA looks normal. -

QFT. MX^2 is still a bit long, though. Stick with MX.

i have superly duperly small hands but i spin msxa's.
However while msxa's are 21 cm, i still prefer 20.5 cm pens for some reason. -

Im sure you remember Slitherspin. His hands look like little dog paws and he tries spinning w/ a golf shaft. Hand size definately manners. In videos, you'll look retarded and noobish. -

My Right hand (Dominant hand) is .. from my WRIST to my tip of my middle finger is 16 cm.
Thanks for the advice guys. I'll probably use a RSVP MX ?
~Please keep on topic. This is for pen mods, not which pen is good for you depending on your hand size.~ -
