How do I remove grips?
- Slide a paperclip around underneath.
- Submerge grip in hot water until it expands and slides off. The grip will shrink as it cools.
- Crush the pen underneath if you don't need it, remove grip from crushed pen.
- Wrap grip with a towel, pull really hard.
- Lift an edge of the grip and spray with WD-40, wrap grip with towel, pull grip off.
How to remove HGG/G2 Grips (by TEK)
How to remove the G2 grip: by Guitrum
How to remove the G2 clip: By Guitrum
How to cut a G2 section: By Guitrum
What do I use to cut barrels?- Wire cutters
- X-acto knife
- Hacksaw
How do I keep the metal HGG tip attached to the plastic RSVP tip?- Just screw the tip right onto the plastic.
- Wrap teflon tape around the plastic tip, screw the metal tip into the tape. (Teflon tape is used to insulate plumbing, it's stretchy)
How do I remove the colored clip ring on the back of the G2?- Break the clip off so that there is a U-shaped hole at the top of the band. Pull the rest of the band off.
What is a BICssa?- BICssa is an old name for a BICtory that has a black barrel and white caps, similar to a Comssa. We don't use this name anymore. Just call them all BICtories.
What are the dimensions of an insert for the RSVP barrel?- Width: 9cm
- Height: 3.81cm
- COP is located 4cm from the "back" side (where the RSVP cap will be located).
- Only 1/2 of the insert (vertically) will be visible when the insert is rolled up.
- Only 1/4 of the insert will be visible at any time when looking straight on at the insert.
How do I empty a G2 barrel?- Take the tiny plug out of the back of the G2 Refill
- Fill the sandwich bag with some water (not too much)
- Place the G2 Refill inside the sandwich bag and hold it from outside the sandwich bag.
- Using pliers, press, hold, and twist off the tip of the G2 refill (FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE SANDWICH BAG) and let the ink come out. (You might want to leave the area and come back in a few hours if you want to make sure all of it gets out.)
- Run some water through the g2 refill and clear it of any ink marks.
- Now the glue will be inside the g2 refill. Using a barbeque stick, push through the g2 refill and try to push the glue out. The glue is very sticky so avoid getting it on your skin.
- Run some more water through the g2 refill and clear out anything left inside with the barbeque stick.
How do I properly insert a paper insert into a barrel?- Roll the insert around the inktube.
- Slide the rolled insert into the barrel.
- Use the inktube to nudge the insert into place.
How do I balance my Comssa Mod?- Shove a bit of paper into the lighter side until it all balances out.
How do remove the writing on a RSVP barrel?- Use an eraser to rub off the writing. Silver writing (Fine line) comes off more easily than Gold writing (Medium line).
What is a good length for a finished pen mod?- To start, a mod should be about the same distance between the top of the wrist and the tip of your Middle finger. Anything shorter or longer than that is up to you. Generally, the longer the length beyond this measurement, the more likely it is that you will recieve negative comments about the mod being too longer. In the end though, it is all personal preference.
Which Signo tip should I use for the BICtory mod?- Any Signo tip that has a "lip" at the bottom should work. The tip will not slide over the BIC cap, you need to use a grip (and maybe tape) to hold the tip onto the end of the cap.
What size G2 pen should I buy?- It depends on what you want. The 0.5 size has a clear barrel that is better for inserts, the 0.7 size has a tinted barrel.
How remove an eraser to add it to the back of a pencil without ruining anything?- Twist the eraser untill the seal breaks then put it on the other pencil and pinch it so it holds.
- Cut some of the wood underneeth of the metal it slips it off, shave down the part where the eraser will go until metal piece fits snugly.
How do remove the back plug of a Bic Round Stic or Bic Stip Grip?- Take pliers or scissor and gently squeeze the barrel until you hear cracking, that's the seal being broken.
- Boil some water to melt the glue.
- Place the barrel over the skewer
- Hold both the barrel and skewer in the air
- Let go of the skewer and slam the barrel down to the ground
- The skewer should force the back plug off of the barrel.
How do I unscrew a HGG tip from a ComSsa cap?- Grab a HGG grip, hold it tightly around the tip and screw it off.
- Wrap a rubber band around the tip and unscrew it.
- Wrap shirt around tip and pull.
How do you remove a G3 grip?- Slide something underneath the grip
Any tips on cutting Anyball / Profile / Star Gel Max grips?- Read this UCPSB thread
How do fix loose caps?- Wrap clear tape around the barrel underneath the cap.
How do remove the glue from an RSVP cap that has a barcode sticker?- Acetone
- Grab a sticker and use it to pull the glue off.
How do I keep a HGG tip on the black Comssa cap?- Wrap clear tape around the nub before screwing on the tip.

Grab a HGG grip, hold it tightly around the tip and screw it off. Works great, I think I read it in some thread on UCPSB quite some time ago, but it works great so I just wanted to share ^^ -

Ahh that's a hard one. The older bic back plugs were easier to get out. What I do is I take like pliers/scissor-type pliers and squeeze the back plug until some of it is half way out. Then I just pull it out, and reform the body tube with the pliers.
EDIT: And about that hgg tip off the comssa cap, use a rubber band and just use the grip to unscrew it. Sometimes it's hard to pull it with your bare hands. -

Pinch the back with pliers to break the glue and use a chopstick to jam it out. If that doesnt work then get some boiling water and heat up the back to melt the glue and try the chopstick again. -
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2007 20:48:59
I thought of trying the boiling water, and it didn't work, I'll try the squeeze thing.
thx

Shirt over grip and yank. It takes some strength but it doesnt warp the grip.
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2007 21:08:42
yeah i tried hot water before, it barely works i think
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2007 21:12:07
You have to leave it in the boiling water for a minute or two. You cant just dip it in and expect the back plug to come out after. But really, pinching the back part with pliers to break the glue and using a chopstick has never failed for me. Sometimes you get a stubborn back plug and you really need to push to get it out but it has always worked
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2007 21:18:49
Oh crap, we're talking about bics?! Yes! Use the plier method! It wont leave a mark if done correctly! You dont have to squeeze it to death, just a nice light squeeze until you heard some cracks.
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2007 21:37:13
@darkeh: I've also used a wooden skewer.
- Place the barrel over the skewer
- Hold both the barrel and skewer in the air
- Let go of the skewer and slam the barrel down to the ground
- The skewer should force the back plug off of the barrel.
-
Date: Sun, Sep 16 2007 00:01:12
None of these things are working and I've tried all of them on 4 barrels.

Sketching, here are no Signo tips with lips...I'd say that the Signo Gel Grip is the one that most people use...
And about the bic back plugs, use a screwdriver. Stick it in and then slam the handle of the screwdriver into the ground a few times, works everytime. -
Date: Sun, Sep 16 2007 01:18:11
The way I do it is simple and works every time.
You'll need:
1. Screw
2. Screw Driver
3. Pliers
Use the screw driver to screw the screw in to the BIC end cap until 1/8-1/4" deep down. Once in there firmly simply hold tube with hand, hold screw with pliers and pull apart.

Lip probably was not the best word to use, but it was the first word that I came up with. It's the part of the tip that is parallel to the pen body, inside of which sits the threads that allow the tip to be screwed onto the pen barrel. Line up that part of the pen with the BIC cap and tape both together.
The part of the tip that I was talking about...
-
Date: Sun, Sep 16 2007 01:46:04
Ahhh. I though you were talking about a lip like on a Dr. Grip.

You just have to insert something underneath the grip to remove to get it off the grooves(is that the right word)u can use a bbq stick and insert it in all sides so it'd be more loose and then like the others said twist and pull. -

Put a thin piece of clear tape on the back cap and the front cap should hold nicely.

Once you've removed the barcode from a RSVP, how do you get away the sticky stuff?
The best solution I have this far is hot water -> rub -> acetone. It get's all the glue away, but it takes too much time imo. -

Theres a way easier solution...use the sticker you just pulled off, put it back on the parts that are sticky and pull the sticker away in a quick ripping motion. If you dont understand then imagine how people wax their legs and apply the same concept with the sticker and the adhesive left behind on the cap. If you totally ruin the sticker then get a piece of tape and do the same thing: Place on adhesive, tear off and repeat using the same piece of tape. Should take a few minutes but it works great. Good luck

Take some clear tape and get about a 0.5 cm piece. Wrap it around the nub of the black dong-a cap and put the tip on. That should let the tip grip onto the tape and stay on the cap. -

Thanks, this worked like a charm. I tried teflon tape which didn't work but never considered clear tape. -

Date: Fri, Oct 26 2007 13:31:38
twist it or bang it like hell onto a table...
or instead or teflon tape put a lil electrical tape werever yu need it [in place of teflon] then twist the tip on
that has never failed me -
Date: Fri, Oct 26 2007 22:29:54
I pull the teflon tape really tight around the RSVP tip and I don't use alot. Just a few wraps will do it. You then twist the tip on, you don't need a lot of force or anything. Just screw it on until the tip is stable.

Well you're supposed to use the shaker pencil from Japan, and since we don't have them here I think that's the only one you can use, unless there's a Dr. Grip pencil here that uses the same exact tip

I take the teflon tape and make it into a thin "rope" then wrap it around whatever. Doing it that way gives the HGG tip a better surface to hang on to. -

So i just tried removing some graphics on a cartoon comssa with sugar and it sucks. The sugar scratches the plastic...it's just difficult to see because the barrel is white but you can feel the scratches the sugar leaves. Im just using regular table sugar which is pretty coarse so maybe there are finer brands of sugar that wont scratch?
Either way, i would say sugar works but it scratches plastic (softer barrels anyway). I'll just stick with my old methods for now unless someone can confirm that another brand of sugar wont scratch the barrels. -
Date: Tue, Oct 30 2007 09:28:06
I think Scott said that a scourer works really well. But he didn't say the name, he just described it and I assumed he meant a scourer. You should ask him.

I'll have to try this out myself sometime.. Did you use piece-sugar or loose? -
Date: Tue, Oct 30 2007 20:43:42
I used loose sugar and tape. Put the tape on the sugar and just used it like sandpaper. My old method left the barrel smooth like a normal black comssa but its a pain in the pass so i tried sugar this time round but I honestly thought the results would be better. In conclusion, the sugar method sucks for comssa...it may work better on harder plastics though.

Usually, if your cutting them. Just cut them to size on the pen already, that way the grip stays ever.
And the Getting them off part. Take a paperclip and push it under the grip, if there's any glue holding it, sorta like a G2. It'll break it. But for SailorGels, I honestly just use teeth at the top of the grip and pull from the back of the grip. DO NOT BITE THE GRIP directly. -

Dr. Grip GEl tips are hollow and no tip, and rather lightweight.
Dr. Grip Shaker tips are more filled(japanese version) and are much much much heavier
Dr. Grip Shaker tips in America are less weight than the japanese, but the weight is more distributed through out the tip -

Date: Thu, Dec 6 2007 15:39:20
The anyball and g2 grips weigh a little more than an HGG grip. This would shift the balance of the pen slightly forward toward the tip of the pen. I used to use anyball grips on mine when I did not have HGG grips and they worked fine.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 6 2007 18:12:41
All three grips have different textures, they will all feel different when spinning. The HGG grip is also thinner than the other two, so you feel the pen surface underneath the grip, which some people may like more.

In case anyone is interested AND DIDNT READ THE WIKI like the person for Metallic ComSSa vs. Dr. Kt
Here ya go
Dr. Kt
-----------
Length: 20.8CM
Weight: 1 normal modded comSSa with 1 US Quarter Dollar taped on each side
CoG: COP
Spin Base: Momentum based. After Nub on Kt Cap
Weight Distribution: 1x Cap: 3 body( For every 1 Grip/tipped KT cap, its the same as 3 keityo bodies)
Cost: 22-25$ to make. 27.50$ to buy pre-made from penwish
Parts Needed:
3 Sailor Gel Grips
2 Keityo/Colortwin Pens
2 Japanese Dr. Grip Shaker Pencil .5 Tips
Advantages: Much greater potential for numerous spin tricks, ideal for 1-4 Finger Tricks and Multiple momentum based spin types
Cons: BITCH HEAVY, stabbing potential. Expensive, Doesn't train fingers properly if used during the beginning of pen spinner. Meant for more advanced spinners(more greatly utilized by experience spinners)
Metallic ComSSa
---------------------
Length: 19.8cm (give or take .1 or so depending on how far the HGG tip is pushed in
Weight: 2 #2 pencils taped together with an RSVP grip over each end
CoG: 5/8 point on the pen unless a piece of weight(grip, paper, etc.) is used to balance it to COP
Spin Base: Near beginning of cap, before Nub on The cap
Weight Distribution: 1x cap: 1 body (uncapped)(for every 1 cap, the weight is the same as 1 body)
Cost: 3-5$ depending on where bought from
Parts Needed:
1 Dong-A Computer Sign Pen
2 Dong-A Sign Pen Caps
2 HGG tips
(optional) 1/2 RSVP Grip to balance pen at COP
Advantages: Great Step up For Beginners coming from a normal comSSa or RSVP MX. Its not too heavy, Great For Infinities because of Anyball Grips. Helps with Learning Finger Movements. Many pros use this pen for the universal appeal of a better mix of weight vs. length.
Cons: May be Long for some still and parts are harder to get if not through the internet

Miffy&Melanie come with colored keityo caps. However, you can also use colortwin caps which have more colors available than the M&M pens do. Colortwin is a black bodied keityo. -

How long is a 3000-f/ f-3000 mod? I'm trying to make a substitute mod using Inhumanelmo's technique with the bic crystal caps(his swirl desk pen mod), but capped on a double-erasered hexagonal pencil. Im planning on cutting the pencil down to fit the size of the mod. If anybody can try it out who has an f-3000 mod/3000-f I would appreciate help on how to make it more similar to the weight/momentum ( i.e. feedback like if you take the erasers and metal parts off it feels more like the mod). thank you...and hopefully this post can turn into a useful substitute for the long-prized 3000-f.

Questions referring to the RSVP MX:
-The use of the Teflon tape to stick the hgg metal tip to the plastic tip of the rsvp, can it be substituted with craft glue, rather than using the teflon tape?

Yes you can use craft glue to stick the hgg tip on
and no the RSVP MX is not easily breakable, dropping it a few times won't harm it at all -

G3MX by WhatTheHell/Madlens.
It's kinda hard to understand but it's basically, break the clip off the G3 cap, sand it, poke a hole into the G3 back part and put an RSVP inktube in. Take an HGG grip and shove it in the G3 cap, put a part of an anyball grip on the g3 cap and the front of the G3. Put some tape on the back part of the G3 and then put the cap on. -

Or can any section be used? -
Date: Wed, Jan 9 2008 21:07:18
Not sure about the weight in numbers, but it's pretty light. Even with grips it's still lighter than the MX. As for the grip, starting from the right PDS uses 2 sections, and another 3 sections. It's really up to you about how much grip you want to use.

Hello,
right now I have finished an Anyball Retractable MX. But I encountered a problem.
The inktube needs to be extended, and the author recommends sticking a toothpick into the back of the inktube. The problem which arises is that the pen cannot write anymore, because the air pressure between toothpick and ink keeps the ink from coming out of the pen.
But I need the pen to write. That's why I chose to do a Retractable MX. My question is:
How can I extend the inktube without closing the back of the inktube and thus making the ink stop coming out?
Thanks in advance.
-
Date: Sun, Jan 13 2008 00:21:33
You could tape another piece of RSVP tube on the back, but I don't know how the mod works so I dont know if this will work.
-
Date: Sun, Jan 13 2008 00:29:05
It can't write? I stuck a toothpick in the back of my ARMX ink tube and it was still able to write. Maybe try another ink tube to see if it works?
-
Date: Sun, Jan 13 2008 00:37:19
Thanks for the quick answers!
@darkeh: That's a pretty good idea! I haven't got a second one of the RSVP inktubes which are necessary for this mod, but other inktubes of about the same diameter.
@k4thez: That does not help me. It doesn't work with the toothpick, and the reason is imo that it closes the back and stops the air supply . I've already built other mods and closed inktubes which were to be cut, and they don't write either. -
Date: Sun, Jan 13 2008 20:31:23
I have not encountered that problem on any of my ARMX's but I supposed you could just pull the toothpick out slightly and not push it in too much. Also you can adjust the spring so it does put too much pressure on the inktube, preventing the toothpick from being pushed in more.

there really is no "exact" substitute for Dong-a sign pen caps. the best i can think of are going to an art shop or craft place and looking around(almost every town has a small art place). Either that or look for Tombow Markers and make the Tombow mod...thats really about as close as you'll get. The other substitues are all unknown back to school type of pens that you find at target seasonally. -

What exactly is the reason for frosting a barrel?
It says in the wiki that it's a technique done with sandpaper/exacto knife, and that it reduces friction by making patterns in the barrel.
If anything, wouldn't the patterns cut into the barrel by the knife / sandpaper give it more friction due to a rougher surface? -
Date: Sat, Jan 19 2008 23:58:47
As far as I figure, frosting reduces the amount of the surface of the pen that touches the fingers, which reduces friction between the fingers and pen. When using a xacto knife to make a tight texture, it definitely made the pen slide more easily for me.

i just use paint. but if it's too big it usually cuts it in half for me
standard rsvp inserts usually work
i know one must slide a paper clip under an hgg grip to get it off, but last time i tried that i starting ripping the grip
exactly how do you that? -
Date: Tue, Jan 22 2008 13:29:54
A better way to get a HGG grip of, without destroying it is putting the pen, without inktube and tip, in some really hot water. Either you can boil it in a water boiler and then put it in a cup or so, or you can just flush hot water over the pen from the tap. Then you just take a towel and hold the pen on both sides with it, and you should be able to pull of the grip pretty easy.
-
Date: Tue, Jan 22 2008 13:59:21
i tried using that too, it kinda destroyed the grip for me, because the towel rubbed on the grip too much
and then doesn't the grip shrink more since it's rubbery? -
Date: Tue, Jan 22 2008 15:10:02
Nope, the only effect hot water should have is destroying the glue and making the grip more easily to extend.
-
Date: Wed, Jan 23 2008 01:51:43
On my HGG I just stuck it under my tap's hottest water for a few seconds, then rolled it on the counter you can usually hear the glue crackling. It becomes much easier to just slide it off without the use of a towel.

Repeat this process back and forth until the plastic breaks (picture 2d). Tip: On the first bend, try to go as slowly and as far as possible. If you bend it too fast, the clip may break unpredictably.

The v shape probably just makes sure that if the clip part hits your hand it won't leave a scratch. To make the v shape you have to use some x-acto knife product. -

You have to stretch them. Take the grip (or grip sections) and put it over a pair of scissors so that the blades are closed and on the inside. Now gently open the scissors and the grips will stretch. Don't do it to hard or they'll break. Also remember to rotate it so that it only stretches one way.
-
Date: Wed, Jan 30 2008 00:08:22
You have to stretch it over. It will fit pretty tightly at first. If you need to you can cut it into 2 parts so it is easier to slide over. Next time thought you should ask these simple questions in the shoutbox or the "one answer questions" thread rather than making a brand new thread.

Since you are only asking about putting a grip over a cap, thread merged with Quick Modifications.
When putting a Hybrid Gel Grip grip over a Dong-A Sign Pen cap, I simply make sure that the Sign Pen cap is lubcricated. Put a bit of water on the cap and the grip should slide over much more easily with having to stretch and work the grip too much. -

Hey I wanted to know what parts are used on the MX spun all the way at the end of Bonkura's solo http://youtube.com/watch?v=wEBPDArxNs0 its in the last 5 seconds. I know thats its an orange hgg in the front and an icy blue barrel and of course an orange back cap and hgg tip but what confuses me is the cap. I have mine and his looks so much more orange, did he use an hgg in the back as well, did he use an orange cap? I guess for clarification in case I got some of the assumed parts wrong you can fill me in with this format. Cap:, Grip in cap:, Backcap:, Barrel:, Grip:, and Tip:.

now my question: am i supposed to glue the stripes in the cap to the hgg grip in the cap? if not, doesn't it fall off when you remove the cap? -
Date: Sat, Feb 16 2008 20:09:21
if your talking about the mx^2, (i think you are but you never specified), then you are supposed to glue each stripe to each other but not to the back hgg grip. To make the connection better after your stripes are glued together and the glue has dried and its in the cap, cut half of an rsvp grip. Using tweezers insert it inside the stripes and it should connect the stripes to the back grip. here are two vids that might help you... half grip into cap and rsvps for back grip

I know it sorta stupid, but I have seen sooooo many people using the "Korean lines" insert, and it seems as if its lined up with the COG of the MX, but the insert itself has the COG line in the middle. What dimensions(in cm) are you supposed to print the insert at to get the COG on the insert to be accurate for an MX? Do you have to cut some of the back side of the insert to get it right? If so how much? Basically I am looking for a super-mini tutorial on how do print/cut it to work. Something like print the insert at Xcm width x Ycm height, and then cut Acm from the back will do. (I requested an insert specifically designed for the MX with this pattern and no one had one, but people seem to get around that so i was wondering how.) Cheers!

Colortwins are basically the same thing as keityos. Colortwins have bigger caps than tombows, and I think tombows have longer caps. When double capped tombows are longer than colortwins.

The barrel of the G3 is used, the hgg is mainly for the grip. Im not too sure about the G1 working, techinally if the mp mechanism fits through the g1 barrel, it should be able to replace the G3 barrel. Beware though, the GJH requires the cutting of a metal tip, or hotgluing to the g3 barrel. -

If you dont care about the plastic that the grip is around then just squeeze both ends of the exposed plastic until it shatters (not bends) then pull out all of the slivers of plastic until the grip comes off.
Ok, I just made a Lava Lamp MX and as cool as it is, i really want it to be able to write but i cant do anything to it because the ink tube could be seen in the body if i put it in there.

Glue them together, or stuff a g3 grip into the g3 cap and put in your tips.

How far is the rsvp sticking out of the hgg tip? If its a lot then you can just get some pliers and a rubber band (to grip the hgg tip) and unscrew it. -

I get the impression from his post that Guitrum has a metal HGG tip that is currently seperated from the RSVP body, with a bit of plastic RSVP tip stuck inside that he in unable to remove, the ink tube would not come into play in that situation. -
Date: Wed, Mar 12 2008 00:29:42
sketching is correct. i did get it out though. i tried all of your ideas but none of them worked. i tapped it very gently with a hammer until the plastic cracked and it fell out of the tip. But alas, this happened to be a double-edged sword because the tip itself bent and cracked in a few places. but i was able to bend it back, and i believe that i can still use it for what i need it for, so its alright.
Thanks for your help everyone!!!!!! -

On mine, I took the back plug from a keityo or Color twin, and stuck it in there to replace the M&M back plug. It was kind of a personal preference, but you can just use the back plug it came with, although sometimes the caps fall off, but thats only on crazy fast infinities -

Date: Sat, Mar 22 2008 02:44:27
You can screw the HGG tips onto the nubs of the comssa caps (white and yellow). If it is black or blue, you have to file down the nubs a little bit.

yeah. signo tips.
and for the glued together HGG tips, I had two crazy glued together, and got that apart by soaking in boiling hot water, then dunking in ice-cold water. the glue cracks, and excess can be easily scraped off with a blade. Hot glue would come off even easier. -

I dont know if that would work or not because hot glue melts anywhere from 130-190 celcius and boiling water is only ~100 celcius. It's worth giving it a try though if you still havent got those tips apart Jamie -

Post questions like this in Quick Modification Questions thread next time
----------
Just like the G2, unscrew the cap then just push down on the top of the clicker past where it retracts, and then it should just pop out -
Date: Mon, Mar 24 2008 14:22:58
back click?
WTF?
what the hell are you talking about?
i dun get it...u ask about a G2 but u dont have a G2?
clip? - use a cutter [pic]
clicker? - just unscrew the barrel and push the clicker down.
if ur talking about the back colored part i think the only way to take it out is using a saw... -

I used to draw mine, but there are many different ways of making them. There is the Show Off your Inserts thread, where you can request some and borrow some already made, or you can make them yourself. Most people use The Gimp or Photoshop to make inserts.

how to put insert into any-x barrel??

I use the g2 inktube instead of the cliker. It may be too tin so add some paper between the insert and the inktube. And the pen is a lot more stable
-
Date: Thu, Mar 27 2008 12:27:26
i just dont get it...
on each and every one of my mx's i screwed the HGG tip on the RSVP tip [even without any tape]
and when i put the HGG grip on, it still doesnt cover the whole rsvp barrel [like, between the HGG grip & tip there's a gap...]
how the hell you do it without adding any grip rings - how ?!?! -
Date: Thu, Mar 27 2008 13:35:18
The gap will go away with time. The more you spin it the more the grip will stretch and it will cover the gap, even if you left the tape on there it will still cover the gap with time. Or you could just pull the grip stretching it out but I don't like to do that to mine but that is just me. Either way the gap will be gone.

Use an RSVP ink tube and push the back plug out. Make sure to clean the RSVP ink tube tip because there's glue in the backcap of the gelly roller. -

yea okay thanks guys...

You need to make a larger hole and instead of inserting the inktube from underneath (like a regular MX) you have to insert it from the other side of the back cap. -

Spin what you want, but spinning something that heavy is only going to make you think you're a lot better than your really are, because when you go to do the same tricks on an actual pen you're not going to be able to do it nearly as well. -

I've tried using teflon tape to keep 2 tips together but it doesnt hold that well. If you dont want to glue them together you can probably use sticky-tack/blue-tack to hold the tips together. -
Date: Fri, Apr 4 2008 19:51:03
I hold a personal grudge against sticky-tack. I assume you don't want glue because it is too permanent and you want to be able to take it apart if necessary, when you take off sticky-tack it leaves a thin but hard to get off residue. You can use hot glue if you don't want a permanent solution as hot glue(the glue-gun kind), can be peeled off if needed.
Also, if you have two hgg tips glued together you can put them in a glass container filled with acetone/nail polish remover and leave it be for a few hours or however long it takes. I shook the container up a bit every few hours and then left it overnight and it was clean and separated. -

Did you read the wiki? http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php/RSVP_NX_MMT
If you still need help, you cut a little part of the G2 clicker, and you can tape or glue the G2 clicker onto the RSVP body to keep it on there. -

Do you mean tips? If so I think that's how you do it.
As for the KT, when RYO made it I don't think he could buy comssas in Japan so he used Keityo sign pens. -

3 tips in the front of the MSXA (doesnt matter how you do it, since they will differ if you use black comssa caps or white comssa caps), and 1 tip in the rsvp cap.
Comssa barrel is thinner than KT/CT/M&M. Comssa barrel also feels different in texture compared to KT/CT/M&M. Also a dr.KT mod using a comssa body will be longer than if you used the original KT/CT/M&M. Sailor gels fit on comssa caps but they fit better of KT/CT/M&M caps. -

Warpping some teflon tape and twisting the tip tightly was all I needed... and not dropping the pen mod as often.
Seriously though, the tip stayed on a really long time as long as I didn't drop the mod onto any hard surfaces. I always spun over carpet at home and over a book or something at school, something to get between the pen and the table-top. -

Type of RSVP doesn't really matter. In my experience Med. RSVP writes smoother. As for the signos, make sure you have the ones with the small metal tips, not those huge ones. If you want to get the print off of the RSVPs, get Fine line RSVPs. -

There's no video, but it's really simple. You take it, and you bend it all the way back so it's basically straight like the clip, and it'll just snap off. There will be a U shaped hole left where the clip was.

The clip should actually snap off leaving a little "u" shaped hole.
What's rest on the barrel should slide right off. -

Are the G3's on PW ( http://penwish.com/product_info.php?cPath=...products_id=403 ) the ones with the metal tips? And if not what could I use to replace the G3 tip. I'm assuming the cap is the same.

If you mean the HGG grip, you can use quite a few things, but one in specific would be a zebra Sarasa grip

So i've been searching around the "post your pen thread", and found some great pens with custom cut grips.
now im not gona lie, i suck at cuttin grips with my Xacto Knife.
any 1 got any tips or techniques they wana share for cuttin grips.
Pics? or different designs you've cut?
So far i've tried cuttin grips diagonally down and matchin 2 colors 2gether.
I botched up a bunch of grips by trying to do a zig zag or a square like interlocking style.
I just dont wana mess up any more HGG Grips, since they are hard to get here.
So i practice alot on my Leftover RSVPs
also random side question
Is Pentel HGG the same as a Pentech Sparkler?
they look almost identicle and i've even seen people use mods that say Pentel HGG in the materials but when i look at their cap it says Pentech. -

my uncle works at abington bank and they got Free LED Pens that light up and strobe blue.
I got like 2 of them, and took them a part.
I have an idea to get them into a pen, i just need a very wide pen for these lights and have to drill a hole into the barrel to fit it.
Maybe get a wide pen and dremmel a fitting into it and then a hole in the barrel for the on off switch.
might take a trip to radio shack and pick up some Smaller leds and find a way to fashion a Twist on/off mechanism.
once i get some time off work ill attempt to make this, looks like a fun project. -

buy a bunch of pens like RSVP, G2 and post it here and see what you can make with them.
or see here it shows like most of famous mods. click on them, decided what you like and see if you can buy the materials in US by comparing with Pens Around the World. -

Have you tried wrapping a grip around the tip and twisting+pulling? It works for many other tips in similar situations.... unless you mean that the tip is stuck on the inside of the cap. That would suck.

Take a HGG body and screw on the tip which is stuck in the cap, and pull it out. If it doesnt, maybe you could take a paperclip, bend it into a hook to hook the tip out. Btw, this is in the wrong section, next time post this in the Pen Modifications section.

Teflon tape is used in mods because it helps hold on metal tips. The teflon tape acts like the pen the metal tip was originally on, giving the tip something to grasp onto. Electrical tape is used but it doesn't hold metal tips as well, electrical tape is usually used for its colors. -

Teflon tape creates a mold for the threads in the tip to use to hold onto. Electric tape isn't pliable like teflon tape, so it can't really have anything screwed onto it -

"Are there any physical differences between a RSVP sunburst barrel and a normal RSVP barrel?"
RSVP body is longer
Sunburst grip section is longer
back caps and caps fit well
"How many sections of profiles would you suggest I put before the HGG grip in a signo tipped MX?"
2~3 for better looks
[IMO its better to put the 3 profile sections in the end to cover some of the tip - looks HOT] -

Maor101 is right about the length and grip section length. There are more differences too. The inside of the RSVP barrel is smaller than the sunburst barrel.
For a signo tipped MX, 3-4 sections.
No other tips besides the HGG fits on the nub of the comssa. -

You'll need:
1. Screw
2. Screw Driver
3. Pliers
Use the screw driver to screw the screw in to the BIC end cap until 1/8-1/4" deep down. Once in there firmly simply hold tube with hand, hold screw with pliers and pull apart.

That is the japanese pencil mod. It's just a regular pencil with 2 metal caps on each end. Length is pretty long but it's still a fairly light mod. Spins quite well in my opinion.

You do need 2 muji pens since the caps are slightly different. -

You can use a hacksaw, they are relatively inexpensive and cut through just about anything if you have the time. They do go through pens quickly.

Muji caps are the same on both sides except one side has a plastic groove along the cap. Muji is also shorter. -

Found out a shorter way to empty the G2 inktube. Shove an RSVP (or the sort) inktube through it while ye run water down it. Though it makes quite a mess on yer sink. And about the "greasy" thing that's left: soap and the same inktube.

I don't know why would you want to make it heavier, its as heavy as it is already. Anyway, you can add lead weights in the cap, or add tips on each end of the cap, holding them on with grips. -

At 81g the only way to add significant weight is with dr.grip tips (4g each), held on with some grips (probably add another 2g total). Do you really think it needs more weight though?

How do you remove the grip from G3s?
I've searched the forum, but the method posted doesn't seem to work. The square bumps on the G3 barrel get in the way, the grip having the same diameter as the barrel makes it harder as well.
And,
For the Lakubo Jell Mod (Ayatori version), does it really go Lakubo grip -> Insert -> Tape -> Signo Knock type grip? Because my insert is constantly ripping whenever I try putting the grip over it. A lot of tape doesn't help either. >_> -

To remove the G3 grips I think you need to use a paper clip and stretch out the part where the square bumps are. So the grip will be stretched but after you remove it the grip should go back to normal.
As for the ayatori mod you got it right. Make sure the insert doesn't wrap around the lakubo grip many times, it should barely meet around the lakubo grip, and make sure you use only enough tape so it can wrap around maybe once. A smaller insert and less tape works really well. -

Take the part of the bic round stick grip the holds the grip and cut off the tip part
Wrap some tape around it and put in in the middle of th GA.
Put the bic inktube through the center piece.
Pull the GA in half to write.
Makes it a bit off balancer though. -

if you have on an inserts. sand it a little more and put some tape around it.
shove tape in the back by the RSVP grip( so you cant see it)
also shove some paper/tape in the rsvp, then use the inktube to shove it to the front.

There are 2 kinds of "Bonkura" Mods. One is the ballsign and the other is the Bonkura KT.

For the ballsign, you put super grip on first, then put Dr. Grip on top of that. -

Also, I`m just curious: how much of the dr grips do most people use for a white bonkura kt? I don`t have any sailor gels right now and half of the dr grip grip seems a bit short o.o. -

i've used my msxa for awhile now, and i've had this cloud thingy on the bottom end of my cap
i'm guessing it comes from the backcap of the rsvp...but how?
is there a way to prevent it? i really dont' like it -.-''
and is there a way to get rid of it....probably not though >.<
well, here's a pic in case you dont' know what i'm talking about
Spoiler:
---dunno if this was the right place to post this, if not, could you just move this, thanks -
Date: Fri, Jun 27 2008 03:08:27
Its the stretching of the plastic so its kinda unavoidable just get a new cap I guess.
-
Date: Fri, Jun 27 2008 03:10:06
ohh, that's why...
i thought the cap was constantly scratching it or something -.-'' -
Date: Fri, Jun 27 2008 03:11:42
You prolly take the cap on and off CONSTANTLY and when you do, you prolly take it off w/ force. Do it gently.

Date: Fri, Jun 27 2008 04:17:12
How hard you pull off or put on the cap wont matter. The "cloud" will form on pretty much every rsvp cap unless its a loose one. As you know, not all caps are made exactly the same so some might stretch more.
-
Date: Fri, Jun 27 2008 04:31:04
yeah, the cap just got stretched out. thats why i dont use the rsvps with the fat back caps
-

I've had to replace my MSXA caps 3 times it gets annoying after a while.
-
Date: Tue, Jul 1 2008 02:05:41
yah, i think its just normal maintenance on our pens.
its cuz you take it off of the back cap which has some pressure and if you move the cap to take it off, it'll make small scratches on the cap
and eventually with a lot of small scratches, i'll become cloudy. after you change the cap it seems sooo new lol.
i usually buy a bunch of black rsvps that go on sale a lot. i just take off the caps from them to change it up.
and also i hate it when you dont put the cap back on carefully and the ink get stuck on the cap. looks terrible. -
Date: Tue, Jul 1 2008 02:09:40
I got fed up with the clouding and just used a G3 cap (with a ring of clear tape around the backcap)

THAT ANNOYS ME TOO. HAPPENED ON MY MSXA KABILLION TIMES. AND I DON'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH RSVPS ANYMORE....It's awful to look at but, I think clouds only happen on
-red
-blue(rsvp)
-black
I think that only. And the others fit fine. The blue RSVP colors is so thin it won't form clouds on the cap lol( I mean the backplug is thin) -

Try to make the insert kind of thin, and roll it up as tight as you can and fit it in. Once you've rolled it up a few times, it will stay tighter and you will be able to fit it in. -

Pop out the backplug, roll your insert up tight, and put it in. Replace your backplug and put the ink you want in as well.

If you dont sand it down, you'll have an ugly bump through thr grip.. Sand it down, then wrap it in a little bit of teflon tap, grip stays on tight and looks much better.

Use an exaco knife or utility knife, start at the base of the nub, and scrape a little off in the direction of the end of the nub. Make sure not to take too much off, and do it all the way around the nub.
I personally also glue HGG tips onto black comssa caps because they aren't too sturdy. -

the flexgrip tip has screws on them, and u can use them if you can find a way to attach them to the front of the mx. they work great on bictories though, just cut off the top part of the cap and stick it in. of course, it has to be the metal one. -

doesnt really matter if its metal or plastic. when u cut out the screws its still same weight.

Do you have any idea what you're talking about? You just said metal tip has the same weight as a plastic one when the post before this said that the flexgrip metal tip is useful because you can cut a hole in a bic cap and stick it in.

Try to use the paper clip method. Before you try to remove the grip, get your nail under the grip and run it along the edge of the grip on both sides. This will loosen the grip from the barrel so it'll be easier to get the paper clip under and easier to remove. -
Date: Fri, Aug 22 2008 19:24:26
or push the grip back a little so you can cut off the tip with pliers
then just pull it out the front -

The easiest method right now is to use printer paper. Rip a good amount off, and fold it until you can't fold it anymore and just rub it on the barrel. It really does work. Sugar is not recommended because it scratches the barrel. -

In RSVP MX's, is the COP=COG? Because my COG is about 1cm towards the back cap. Is this normal? And if not, if there really any need to make the tip end heavier by adding profile grips or something?
-
Date: Tue, Aug 26 2008 12:57:36
Nope.. The COG =/= COP for the RSVP MX.
It's towards the back like it should be. If you go to the wiki's inserts database and search for RSVP MX inserts, you'll notice that the inserts have their COG marked towards the back.
It's fine to have it back heavy and some people like it this way, especially fans of the RSVP MX.
However, if you want a single sided pen with COG=COP, try Kam's Impact MX. -

Actually, I think that if he wants to make his MX COG=COP, he should just use a signo tip...
much easier... Cuz the IMX is much harder to make, and heavier, so if he wants a pretty much same weight mod, I'd suggest using a signo tipped MX. -

you cut a rsvp grip in half. take one half and cut in half again, then take one of that half and cut through it, so it's "opened" and not a ring/circle. take that opened grip and shove it into the other grip you cut in half twice. wrap those two cut pieces around the pencil's back cap, and then shove it all into the rsvp back cap, which should make a nice snug fit. if it doesn't fit, cut a little bit of the rsvp grip you "opened" and it will fit depending on how much you cut.

Date: Wed, Aug 27 2008 06:20:05
Use outserts, just use tape to conjoin the ends and leave the rest as paper. Comssas are beast and work great, get a metallic comssa if you can, then make it retractable its a lot btr than a MX. Still an mx is original so i guess you can continue to spin it. Another method is to rub an eraser all over the barrel, but you may have to do this repeatedly over time as the excess rubber will come off.

For black comssa caps, someone should change the wiki, I believe that you have to shave down the nub in order to fit an HGG tip on it. Do I cut the nub shorter so that it doesn't show the nub? Or will shave down the nub make it so the HGG tip will go lower and no nub will be showing.
Also, method and techniques on how to cut Monami 153 mechanism cuts on a comssa barrel? Any specific methods and most efficient way to practice cuts like that. How do you measure the mech. cut, by sketching the cut first or scratching it? Should I use K4S's method in his 153 MX to put the mech in? Or can i just put the whole mech in? Specifications would be helpful, as in cuts, measurements, lengths, etc. If any1 can just send me a precut barrel that would help a lot *cough* K4S *cough* -

dunno aobut the first one because i never had a bellcolor. but the second one u just put ur shirt over it and then use pliers. or a layer of something soft yet durable and the pliers would still be able to grip the back plug -

Stick an inktube in the other end of the hgg (like an rsvp inktube). -

the backplug off the hgg is not tight so just get any long and thin object that fits into the barrel and push the backplug out

hey
take bc cap and just put hgg tip on it
hold the cap straight up
then use a light and make the tip hot for 15-20 sec
then let it cool down

The easiest way is probably to use clear tape. Teflon tape doesn't work too well, and melting the tip...probably won't work too well either. Just take a little tip, like 3mm, roll it into a donut shape and get it on the nub. This is kinda hard but it works extremely well. -

Use pliers and squeeze around the front plug to loosen the glue. Then push the inktube forward out of the front plug. Thats probably the easiest way with almost no use of energy, if you break the glue apart correctly. -

You can use nail clippers to cut the clip, and it already has a sand file on it. Wire cutters(I use these) work great.QUOTE (Tvister @ Sep 10 2008, 08:44 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>What is dimension of ayatori mod insert?
You don't need exact measurements, just print an insert you like, then cut accordingly to the mod. Make sure the insert is printed big enough. -

EDIT: thank you Sfsr -
Date: Wed, Sep 10 2008 20:28:22
A metal ruler, a knife sharper than a razor, and a steady hand.
Just press PRESS the grip down really hard with the metal ruler and then make the cut. Otherwise, you can just put it around a an old pen or so, tape it with non-transparent tape, and follow the edge with a sharp knife. Not sure which works best.. -

Force it on. Grab your grip then apply pressure to one side of the grip so that its on slightly. Then while still applying pressure fit the other side of the grip on. That's how I do them takes like 2 tries. -

you don't need a tut. If you hv a white or yellow cap, or any of the cartoon caps. you just push the tip on or screw it on. and double cap the pen. then add grips.

If there was enough air flowing around the glued part, that should be enough. I'd test with a piece of paper whether it's still sticky, if not, then spin it.

I don't know about super glue I know about hot glue
I used nail polish remover to remove alot of dry hot glue inside a HGG tip and you put a little bit of in the cover of the nail polisher bottle and then dip the HGG tip inside for like 1 min...after it you take a pencil(don't use anything els or it will really rune the pen) and take it off and it goes off like magic...but since you used super glue I can't tell you for sure because super glue is much stronger then hot glue...
ok my question is:
I got an all black MSXA that I ordered from penwish...the tip fell off of it really in one hit on the floor...so I tryied to re-glue it and it's still wasen't strong and it fell...so my question is should I file the pointi thing of the black comssa cap so the HGG tip will 100% fit on it? because now it dosen't fit 100% of the way so super glueing it would be useless...so should I?

but if you're lazy like me, get tweezers and hold the tip over a flame, then melt the tip into the cap -

I got a question..
For tips...i think there Dr. Grip tips, the donut ones..
Can you make a simple weight or grip out of a gum eraser?
if so..has anyone ever done something like this?
Like you cut out a circle, then cut out the middle and stick it on the end of a BIC mod..granted it wouldn't look nice but it's good for those who could care less about looks and more about how it spins.. -
Date: Sun, Sep 14 2008 20:50:38
It's more troublesome to try and make a grip out of eraser than just going to the store, buying a $1 profile pen and using the grips from that. If you're thinking about using the eraser as internal weight im sure that would work alright if you could cut it so it fits inside the tips/ends.

I lost my Orange and Light Green M&M KT! =(
So I need to buy pens to make a new KT.
I want to make one of the two shown below, preferably the top one:
The top one, I would either have to get Beifas somehow, or use a sharpie to make grey sailor grips black.
The bottom one I can just buy all the supplies from penwish, BUT I REALLY WANT THE TOP ONE.
Obviously because it looks better.
What do you guys think? I don't have time to find someone to get 1 Beifa from. =/ -

When making an MMX, the wiki says to cut the G2 barrel 3.5 cm before the clip.
Do we cut it before the clip?
If we do, there'll be this line/kink near the back of the barrel. Is it supposed to be there? Or do we start cutting from that line instead and have a little bit of the threads at the front.
Or do we measure 3.5 cm from the front of the barrel where the threads are and cut from there?
Or did the wiki say something wrong and maybe the measurements are off? (In that case, can someone provide me with the correct ones?)

I have 2 questions. Im using an RSVP v1 and my old ones tip broke. Is there anyway to stop this from happening again? Also when take the cap off the pen to write I notice that the pen is bleeding and the ink doesn't come out smoothly, is there a way to stop this from happening?
-
Date: Fri, Sep 19 2008 22:52:50
rsvps tend to break easily because they're made of hard plastic :\
the ink is bleeding because the tip is airtight in the cap
try airing it out every once in a while, or just use a normal rsvp and cap it normally -

Is there any good way of putting inserts into caps?
-
Date: Sat, Sep 20 2008 15:30:30
Take the insert and put a tiny piece of tape on one edge, and stick it to a grip, and then wrap it around the grip and slide that into the cap. But you gotta make sure that the grip can slide in easily without the insert first, or else the insert will just rip. Yeah my explanation is kinda confusing. ._.

Take pliers, pull out little felt tip thing at front
Go to back end, Wrap a cloth or somthing around back plug and pull off with pliers.
Let the inktube fall into garbage.
Rinse out body. -

Well, you stick the ink tube in the barrel like you would for an MX but push it against the insert. Then pull the ink tube out while still pushing the side and it should slide out with it. -

I don't know if this is a place to ask this but I have this problem.
I have a ballsign mod and sometimes it's body becomes very smooth and it just slips through my hand when spinning. Other times it's not smooth and I can get a good grip on the barrel. Any idea on how to solve the smoothness problem?
I've treid rubbing the barrel with a cloth when it gets too smooth but it only lasts for like a minute or so and it doesn't work as well as when I can get a good grip of it naturally. -

i think u made it wrong, its shouldn't be back heavy. the needle point is a metal tip, and theres a signo in the back. and its balanced, or at least close to balanced. as for the hyper jell cap, check if its cracked, maybe thats why its not staying on or if its fine, add more tape -

Yes, the Dr. Muji takes only 1 muji pen, it's a double sided marker.
And the Muji barrel is pretty different from a Keityo barrel. A Dr. Muji is about 1.5 cm shorter than the KT. The Muji barrel is also noticeably thicker when spinning, but not when you look at it. -

Signo?
HGG?
Some random other type? -
Date: Wed, Oct 1 2008 23:00:22
Signo tips are used, and its really rather easy to make.
Tut:
1. Double cap the Namae Pen, and remove the Inktube.
2. Put Sailor Gels on the caps, leaving 1-2 rings over the edge(personal preference, I think it adds more weight to the end.)
3. Stick your signo tips into the end.
Simple. -

Could it be possible you tinkering with the ink tube or something? Because that never happened to me... in fact none of my ink tubes ever exploded on me.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 2 2008 03:55:20
I think the reason why they "explode" is because if you pull out that metal tip, the ink starts leaking out. Even if the tip loosens just slightly, it still leaks.
Oh, and this should go in the Quick Modifications Questions thread. -

Technically yes but not that much of a significant amount. I guess there is nothing that I can do because I just extended a COG mod that was too short for me to spin, by lengthening the mechanism and adding stuff to the front. So I actually don't think that there is anything I can do.

Actually thats incorrect....
the muiji caps are different on each side... one side has a slight jut-out like that of a comssa/keityo cap.
most of the dr.muji mods have symetrical caps... although if you don't mind you could get away with just using 1.

for certain mods
plastic tips lend length to a mod, while adding very little weight.
For some japanese mods you try to make the pen a resonable weight and length by extending with a combination of plastic and metal tips (AKA. Seven Mod) -

for white KT's which are made out of M&M's, do you just double cap an M&M or are there special caps?
Also what subs aree there for Dr Grip tips? (as you can tell, trying to make a whit KT >.<) -

White Kt's are generally made out of a M&M marker, comssa caps, clear sailor subs, and dr grip tips.
In more detail, there is no such thing as a white M&M. The ones you see are probably gray.
A possible sub for dr. grip tips could be pilot nextage tips, but they are nowhere near as heavy. -

According to K4S, a Nextage tip is only 0.4 grams lighter than a Dr. Grip tip. But yeah, Nextage tips are probably a good sub because it'll be easier to shove into the grips. -

@stickman: sorry, don't know.
@Luke: hold the part of the grip between your index finger and thumb. Press them together and roll it around hard and then rub them off with your finger like you're smoothing them out.
@Calimartinio: I don't have a Saizen or KUzu mod but a Ryo KT has loads of momentum. I think KUzu's might have loads of momentum too cause of the huge front like what JC said. I think a Saizen's heavier than an Impact MX.. or at least that was what Kam said. (On the shoutbox so don't go looking for him saying it in the tut).

1) jedo/pentel sharp/staples metrix and an hgg tip on top of that
2) insert is same dimensions as mx i think...
3) all black ( this is my opinion, but it really depends on what colors you like)
4) yes, but only if you use a hot glue gun. otherwise the lead breaks alot
5) http://penwish.com/product_info.php?cPath=...products_id=658 this one, or staples metrix or pentel p205/p207/p209
6) if you like to spin mx's, this should be good for you
7) again, if you dont use a hot glue gun, it will be pretty unstable.
if you dont have a hot glue gun, just buy one. they're only like $5 anyway

If you bought the correct pen it should come off by unscrewing it. If you need more torque try using a rubber band to help unscrew the tip. -

You really don't need anything to hold it down except holding it against your leg. If you use a hacksaw it won't cut through your pants and it if you lose your grip it won't scratch you up too bad.
Since you want to hold it down, I'm guessing you don't want scratches on the barrel? All you need to do it wrap tape around the G2 barrel to the left of where you want to cut it. So the tape will protect the barrel, and if the blade slips the tape will just rip a little. -

Take the ink out first (unscrew the front and take out the ink), and put your shirt over the grip and pull. It takes a little force but it should come off quite easily. -

That would be kinda hard because of the limiting things you can cut because the clip is too small.

Currently, there is an alternate version of the RG2T, the RSVG2 - but from my research i can find only 1 tutorial for this mod.
and there are not many reviews around the net.
So. As you guys might want to know is how good is the pen? Which i am also very interested in as it looks more sturdy then the RG2T,
and from what I understand it is supposed to be a heavier mod than the RG2T but not too heavy. (as i like to spin moderately heavy pens on the sides)
Here's a link to the pen tutorial http://www.upsb.info/wiki/index.php/RSVG2
At the first glance at the materials we can notice the amount of materials needed for this pen mod, which might sway people of in trying to make this pen, but im sure it would pay off, as the amount of effort the creators of the pen put in the pen – it would definitely not be a bad mod.
So what I’m asking here is for someone to make this mod – and in the time take some photos of the procedures and make a tutorial, then give a short review on the pen. I’m sure many people (especially me) would be grateful for the tutorial – thanks. 
-
Date: Tue, Nov 4 2008 01:56:58
I don't think it's hard to make - this is basically what you do
Saw off the part of the RSVP cap just before the ball.
Put 2 clickers in the cap.
Shove cap onto G2.
It's not a good mod imo though; not very sturdy. -

You can also try dipping it in rubbing alchohol if its on the outside after you get them apart.
And if its inside ONE tip, you can hold the tip with, lets say pliers, and use a lighter and burn it out, then run it in some water.
Tweezers should pull it right out -

1.) (I believe its called Center of Gravity ) Yes. The most wellknown mod that theyre used for is the Saizen Mod. The inside colored grip is used in the back cap of the mod. As well, the MP version of the COG, has a mini- version of a reg. dr.grip tip.
2.) You could sub the grip for any type of pen that you want to use a signo in. Off the top of my head, key3. Althought the "signo knockoffs" like that tend to have a really cruddy grip, bad to hold, and not durable. The tip is plastic.
3.) The Profile stick pens have the exact same grip as the retractable version of the profile. Although, from personal experience, the grip on the stick pens is a tad more difficult to pull off.
4.) There is no Generic brand with exact same tips as signo. The f-301 (?) tip from zebra is similar in weight, but is a bit longer, and wouldn't be a fantastic sub. As well, they are about the same price, if not more. The only other option would be to purchase the Signo version that has no grip, (http://www.uniball.com/catalog/images/product/1137photo.jpg) which might be slightly cheaper. Although i believe it is not easily available throughout the USA. -

Dremel is the best for cutting...it's dangerous though so take caution when using. Alternative ways of cutting include a hacksaw or heating a blade with fire and then it should cut through the pen like butter.
And insert dimensions for my clear dr.KT are the same as an MX -

Thanks for the answer Stevieboy
And personally i use a mini-hack saw to cut my barrels..there very cheap to get and easy to use, but require a bit more elbow grease then a dremel.. but a dremel is way more dangerous then a hack saw..

Hi guys.
This picture is from a trade thread.
Someone mentioned that Dr Grip Tips were not used in this mod.
Can someone confirm what tips those are? If its a signo or some bullshit then I don't really want to waste my money. Thanks in advance. -
Date: Fri, Nov 14 2008 19:39:22
I believe those are indeed Dr.grip tips.
Just not mp ones.
Considering those are knock Dr. CT as well.
Those tips are dr.grip PEN version.
Very close weight and everything as the mp version. -
Date: Fri, Nov 14 2008 22:08:30
While I agree with the above post, they could also be some generic pen tip. If you go to Staples there are a lot of pens with large metal tips that look similar, but I think they're just plastic covered in a cheap silver paint. I doubt that's what that is, but you might just want to ask the trader.

If you want to make a rectractable pen Dr. KT, you will need a pen mechanism which should be extremely hard to get into the barrel -

There might be some other tip that would fit onto a G2 clicker but the only tip that ideally fits onto a G2 clicker is an HGG tip
And all you have to do is use the inktube from the G2 and use it to push out the G2 clicker -

No, it's not. A supergrip is a pencil, and the G2 is a pen. Super grip part is a cap for the eraser, and the G2 is a clicker. So the super grip wouldn't be a sub for a G2 in an Any-X. -

it's not a problem at all. maybe it's just more resistant to stretching that other HGG grips, you can stretch it by hand. Just pull it and it'll stretch and cover the HGG tip. -

Hi, I have a few questions
Does anyone know the best and fastest way to shave/sand down the nubs on the G3, so that it could fit into the G2 barrel (For F1r3fly's and Guitrum's G3 mods).
Could the Gripmatic tip on a F1r3fly be subbed with a signo tip, and still spin well?
Any tips on cutting dr grip grips really nicely? (Any recommended cutting devices (brands, models) or methods?)
And lastly, how do Airfit grips (Buster CYL mod) feel compared to Dr grip grips (Jap/French ones)?
Oh yeah, and this doesn't really belong here, but Which mod spins the best out of these, Ayatori, KuZu, Seven, Saizen, coulomb or Key3 mods? in terms of spinnablity xD
Sorry for all the questions >< -

Sorry for all the questions ><
Fastest way to shave down the nubs of a G3 is probably using a big nail filer. There's not really anything else that you can use.
I think you can use a signo tip, the two tips are probably the same weight so it wouldn't affect the spinning too much. (not sure about this though, I don't have the mod)
Cutting dr. grip grips, you can use an x-acto knife, or a razor like TEK uses. X-acto knives can give really clean cuts, but it's kinda hard to cut in a straight line. A razor, you can just cut straight through and it should be fine.
Dr. Grip grips are softer than airfit grips, although they have the same grippiness.
This is up to you, you have to spin these and choose yourself. But imo, the SEVEN mod is the best thing I've every spun. Ayatori mod is quite similar to the SEVEN mod. The Coulomb mod feels front heavy, the SAIZEN mod is just a lead stick, it's heavier than the Dr. KT and barely has any momentum. kUzu mod isn't bad, it's pretty heavy and has good momentum too, not sure about the key3 mod though, that's the only one I haven't spun.
Hope that helped! -

When you try to break it, leave it on the pen
Push the top part of the cap so it can't bend back and snap -

How do remove the writing on a RSVP barrel, erasers don't work at all
-
Date: Thu, Dec 4 2008 03:23:55
Try harder, or use a coin, or acetone.
If done improperly, a coin and acetone can ruin the rsvp body.
For an eraser, I find that cheap, crappy erasers work best. -

When spinning a mechanical pencil mod, does the pencil lead shatter/breaks when the pen is dropped frequently?

I use a Staedler Speed Erase eraser, you just have to rub hard and fast, it should make a huge U-shaped indent in the eraser, as if someone took a bite of it xD Well, at least for me it looks like that. -

Hmm well my experience with mp mods, yea they do break when dropped.
But I say this looseley because it of course depends on how 'hard' it is dropped, and how far the lead is out.
For most cases, however, the lead does break; especially when I spin in class and it falls. -

to remove the writing of Supertips, I use a little bit of X-acto knife (not too much that it takes big chunks of the body, just enough to make any uneveness go away), then use a lot of erasing.
The erasing will only take care of part of the writing. Then erase again but vertically instead of horizontally. That should take care of more writing.
Finally, you can use your X-acto knife again on the left over gold ink (like carving a sculpture). Just scratch the body a bit so the ink gets off. Then more erasing.
So yeah, it's a lot of erasing (with alcohol of course), scratching w/ X-acto knife, then repeat. -

Next time you want to ask something small like this, either use the shoutbox or go to the Quick Modifications Thread: http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=9
But since i'm here... I might as well answer the question -.-''
Put the glued tips in a bit acetone (ex. nail polish remover) and let it sit there for a bit to break the bonds of the superglue a bit. Then after 10 minutes or so, take them out. Screw the tips onto the original HGG barrel so that it's stable and won't move, and then grab a piece of rubber band and then get a good grip of one of the tips. And then just pull/twist the top tip until it comes off. -
Date: Thu, Dec 11 2008 22:36:20
A lot of people BREAK the clips, which normally break the cap
it normally breaks because the tip is all the way at the indent, which is where it goes from bigger>smaller, which can have less stability.
if your going to break a clip on it, i suggest you cut the clip off, it will leave it unharmed, and probably keep it stables,
he might have crease the cap when he broke it, or cracked it without noticing
but yes its very fragile.
and yes japanese can get them easily(mostly) -

I've done it before...it's significantly more difficult to get a smooth/good cut though and it takes way longer. I basically used a dremel to take most of it off, finished off the rest with an exacto knife. Of course you could just quickly hack through it if you dont care about neatness. -

Steps:
1. Recomanded if post at Quick Modifications Questions instead
2. post your picture of the pen so we can know what it looks like, i guess it is most likely a RSVP MX variation?
3. look for an insert which you like in http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=203 aka show off your inserts
4. Try to lurk around and look out at the correct sections like show off your pens, show off your inserts etc
5. Several ways of removing the writings are given like using erasers or others which i don't remember
6. Roll the insert carefully when you are putting inside

I think so...tried a couple of SEVEN mods at the SG Gathering and it was unbalanced as well...didn't really liked it. -
Date: Sat, Dec 27 2008 15:16:33
err i felt that seven mod is very balance
..
i tink the seven mod u tried is made with hyper gel or jimnie gell cap instead of jimnie cap? -
Date: Sat, Dec 27 2008 16:59:14
My SEVEN mod is pretty back heavy as well, I think it depends on how much of the hyper jell/jimnie jell grip you cut. I only cut about 1 cm off and it's back heavy, if you cut off more then it'll be balanced.

Date: Sun, Dec 28 2008 19:55:49
I read on Ponnkuto's blog in the Seven G3 mod tutorial somewhere that you're supposed to put aluminum tape on the front to shift the COG.

I think you mean the inktube? If your inktube is reversed, try wrapping a thin layer of tape on the back of the inktube. Keep working your way thicker 'til it stops rattling. More tape means the COG shifts to the front of the pen (which IMO is good because MX's are a bit back-heavy). -

I just tend do go real slow, in one direction instead of back and forth with the saw. You don't have to cut all the way through. Just cut a groove, then rotate, and then keep doing this until you have a groove that goes all the way around the pen. Then it becomes easy to snap that part off and sand it down (if it's still hard, then make the groove deeper). I find this much easier than just trying to cut straight through.
Another method would be power tools (dremel). It's infinitely easier but pricey. -

not sure about the grips. they could be thinner though.
And it depends what you use to file it down. a file or rasp will be very easy. Sandpaper is easy too depending on the grade. Anyway, it shouldn't take too long regardless of what you use.. unless it's a nailfile. -

Besides keane's you can also pull off the tip, and blow into the BACK of the inktube, so it comes out fast.
make sure you do it in the garbage, or a STAINLESS STEEL sink, because it can stain sinks :/ -

It kinda depends what you need it for? If you're just using a Dr. Grip pencil, just wash out the grip, make sure the place where the grip goes is clean, and slide it back on. If you're using it for a mod, don't worry about the water inside the grip. The water will help you slide the grip on, and the water won't be a problem. -

A few things that might help
- use the slowest speed possible, and don't go into the body at once...start slow and keep it steady
- hold the dremel and body as close to the cutting area as possible (without cutting your finger, of course). That give you better control
- cut a little less than you need. Then afterwards, sand from the edge, by aligning the center of the dremel with the hole in the body.
Note: the last one sounds a little confusing, but image holding the cut barrel perpendicular against a table, with the cut edge against the table surface. Well, the rotating disc of the dremel is your table xD As long as you keep the pen perpendicular to the surface, you should get a perfectly straight edge

You're not supposed to put the comssa cap directly over the supertip body. It may fit tightly, but in some cases (as you have experienced) will crack the cap. You're supposed to put it over the tape (on both sides, I believe...but the front side may not require).
And you can't crack a cap by putting it over tape, can you? o_O
That's what keane meant by "I'm almost sure you're not following the buster cyl tutorial properly."
-

For my BusterCYL, the backcap won't fit very tightly and it can and will start to creep out and eventually fly away due to the momentum pulling the cap out with the Comssa Backplug.

I tried to put comssa caps on my M&M body, but the front cap (where the original M&M cap was) is quite stable, but not very much, and the other comssa cap (where the backplug is) won't even get on the body...
So, what do I need to do in order to make them both stable and tight? I have only one M&M body, so I don't really want to experiment >_> -

Uh, that probably won't work. It's easier to stick paperclips under the grip and pull it off. Or you can just pull it off by hand, don't microwave it. -

The front one should be super stable... force it on
and for the back one, you actually have to take off the M&M backcap, You should then be able to force them on. -

forcing them? sounds risky lol, is there a chance they'll crack or something, or is it safe? (not only when I put it on in the first place, also later on after spinning) -

There is a chance... but its worth it.
If you force it directly on with no angle or twisting, you'll be fine.

I made this for comparison (although with a regular bic round stick...not the grip one)
length: slightly shorter than a Buster Cyl, but you can add tape to prevent the cap from going all the way in, so it doesn't matter.
spinning area: there's less spinning are because bic caps are longer than comssa caps. Still a lot of clear area for spinning though, so doesn't bother me.
thickness: this is the main factor here. Bic bodies are much thinner than a Supertip body. So the spinning feels quite different.
texture: bic body feels more slippery than supertip body. with the amounf of momentum you have, i would prefer a grippier body.
conclusion: it has a lot of momentum like a Buster Cyl, but the slippery body and thinner diameter are turn offs for me.

Is there a good way of making connected barrel sections flush (i.e. smooth on the outside where the two barrels connect)? I have an any-x with (scotch) tape around the connecting part but over time the tape will start to peel. I've tried electric and duct tape but the barrels slip very slightly.
Also, is there a better way of making straight cuts on a barrel other than using a hacksaw? -
Date: Sun, Feb 1 2009 22:07:56
for straight cut, use a sharp pocketknife (like..at least 3 inches long). it gives alot of room to cut, and is very straight. however, it probably still needs to be shaved down with sandpaper. as for the connection... umm... make sure the edge is straight, use scissors to cut the tape. or just have a really nice cut likeI did

Is it possible to make a lava lamp MX that actually still functions as a pen-- that is, has an ink barrel in it? I've been hard pressed to find any information on it, and the one website where I did read up on it, it had no ink barrel in the mod.
The main problem I can think of is water/oil getting into the open end of the ink tube and messing it up. Could you not apply sealant to that end, or would this effect the ink flow of the pen?
Also, while I'm at it, is it okay to push the rsvp grip basically -all- the way into the cap for an MX... my friend recommended it, but everywhere I look online, most people only have it half way or so. Does the resulting decrease in length or whathaveyou result in any decrease in spinning performance? -

That sounds like a very complicated, yet interesting concept. No one has ever attempted a lava lamp MX before. The closest anyone has come is a liquid MX, which is an MX filled with colored water.
Also， lava lamps require electricity/heat, so there would be no effective way to have it work. Finally, making it write sounds really ambitious. I doubt there's an effective way to waterproof the inktube.
Other than that, with the grip in the RSVP cap, the farther you shove it in, the farther the cap can go on the RSVP. The farther the cap goes, the shorter the pen. But having the grip a little in barely makes a difference.
Hope this helped!

Yeah its possible, but I've heard that due to the lack of oxygen going into the inktube, it'll eventually stop writing. Because of this, you probably need to unscrew the back plug every once in a while to allow oxygen to get in.QUOTE (KL-7 @ Feb 3 2009, 11:32 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>oh sorry...

You are probably blocking the airflow to the inktube. You need some air to get to the inktube in order for it to write. External air pressure and gravity is what makes normal ballpoint pens write. I suggest you open up a bit of space on the back cap (between the ink tube and the back cap, but not too much or the ink tube will be loose). You'll need to either get a new ink tube or fix your old ones (blow hard on the back of the ink tube to force the ink to the front). If that the ink tube still stops writing after that, you might have a very tight ink tube on your barrel. I then suggest you poke a hole on the side of the inktube (in the clear area towards the back).
Hope that helpsQUOTE (Zal @ Feb 3 2009, 07:35 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Is it possible to make a lava lamp MX that actually still functions as a pen-- that is, has an ink barrel in it?

Actually, if I'm getting this right, you're basically talking about an oil & water MX, right? That's been done before by a guy named Nate (at least 5 years or more ago). However, he never tried to make it writable.
You cannot apply sealant to the end of the inktube or it will stop writing. So you have two options: 1) find a way to keep airflow to the ink tube without getting water in there, or 2) use a sealed, but pressurized ink tube (you can get them from those space pens, but they cost like $20 :/ )

Hi guys, i have a doubt for you ^^
I'm trying some modifications on my RSVP MX personal mod, and i have to cut a little piece of the RSVP inktube for keep improving the modification. The problem is, that the piece ii have to cut, is longer than the empty part of the inktube, and i don't want to cut the part with ink if that means spoiling the inktube. I wouldn't like to have all the ink split all over my mod xDDD
Then, my doubt is, is there any way to cut the inktube without spliting all the ink? Somethink i can put inside...i dunno, i hope you know it ^^
Thank you!:) -

if you don't mind having a useless inktube, empty it. Put it in a platic bag, and use pliers and pull off the front from outside the bag. most of the ink should spill out. Rinse the rest of the ink in a sink, but not in a bathroom sink with marble or whatever ( i learned that the hard way)
But, if you wanna keep the ink, just scribble alot on one page until you have enough inktube to cut :] -

there's a faster and cleaner way (imo) to cut or shorten your ink tube without leaving a mess on one end.
Here's how:
1. use pliers or other means to remove the metal front of the ink tube (keep this on a paper towel unless you want to make a mess)
2. measure the amount you want to cut out, but cut it from the front (the part that is completely filled with ink). Toss this part out or you'll get a mess.
3. use a paper clip or something to widen the new front of the ink tube
4. stick the metal front back into the new front of the ink tube.
5. If there is air on the front of the ink tube, blow hard on the back end of the ink tube until it pushes the air out. -

You can use:
pieces of any grip you want really.... just put tape underneath if needed to bring it up to the same level.
for realy subs you could use: beifas, duraflash, colorbeifas, nexxsomethingorother...
Nothing that you can really get in easily in the USA.

wouldn't the electrical tape screw up the feel of the barrel? so in exchange for having a slightly better looking barrel, you screw up the feel of the buster cyl right? Or am I reading something wrong, because my electrical tape is much, much more grippy than a supertip body.

That stuffs kinda unclear, especially if you dont use a good translator (although the g3 mod tut on that site is good)
the watercolor mod is pretty easy actually:
materials:
2 keityo caps
2 alpha gel tips (type with grip on the actual tip)
2 pieces sarasa grip
1 pentel watercolor body
Steps:
hollow out both caps
Put caps on body
Put tips in caps reversed (pointing inwards)
Force sarasa grip overtop caps!!
Done

for the SEVEN mod,
there's a part that comes off on the cap
are you suppose to file that down?
along with the real clip (the one that is attached)
or do you leave both there like KUZU mod
because in the tutorial it seems like ponkotu filed both clip things down
so there's like a little bit of the black showing
so there isn't that slant there when you remove the colored part of the clip off
well at least i think that was he did -

Ponkotu actually used a Japanese Jimnie cap in his Tutorial.
Its pretty much the same, except for the clip part.
The hyper jell cap is just another version of the SEVEN mod.
for the hyper jell cap, just declip it, and ur good.

but wouldn't it be more in the back since you have that clip hanging out?
so it would make it a little back heavy?
or am i just misunderstanding what a Japanese jimnie is
does a Japanese jimnie not have a clip?
or did he just sand it down
because I have some hyper jells and i think its exactly the same as the jimnie I have
and frozenice
I think they just use like white electrical tape or other tapes on it
and I think they only put it on the cap where it expands (the bottom of cap) -

Naw, the American Jimnie Jell and Japanese Jimnie are two different pens. The Japanese Jimnie barely has a clip if one at all. (Think G3 after you remove the clip.)

Hey guys, I double capped + added grips to a SunburstMX, and Now im not sure about how long to make the grips.
The measurements go like this:
Triangular tip: 6 mm
Main grip: 38 mm
Plastic after main grip: 9 mm
Residue grip from underneath the cap: 12 mm
Barrel: 65.5 mm
Top cap: 51 mm
Total Length: 181 - 182 mm
I'm not sure about what to do with my grips.
Is 38 mm too long?
Should I put extra grip on the other cap, or should I leave it as it is?
The pen in the image is nearly the same size as the real one. (Just about one cm too short) -

hm... I think you should take half of the grips on the cap and put it on the other one. right now it looks like most of the weight is on the side with the grips.

Question regarding KTs. In the tutorial about a standard KT OR a black KT it mentions removing the marker tips and anything inside the body, whereas for a white KT it says to double cap and makes no mention of tip removal. So is it that colortwins or KTs are heavier and need that stuff removed? Or was it that they just forgot to mention those steps in the tutorial when using a M&M body.

In both types, you can keep the insides or remove them. Your own personal preference. It's not necessary for the insides of either to be removed... I like to keep the insides of keityos, colortwins, and m&ms even when it says to remove it... Some people will remove the insides of the markers to get more momentum.
So if you want to remove the insides of the m&m body for more momentum, go ahead..it's not something that's mentioned in the tutorial cause it's optional ^^ -

You should take out the back plug and put it in the back. The back has a bigger hole than the front and it'll be easier to roll up an insert and put it in the back. -

I'm trying to find out because I want to know which dr. grip tip would fit better, a japanese shaker or an american shaker.
And how do you cut dr. grip grips? When i flattened it against a desk and ran a razor blade through it, it came out a little chipped on the sides a little.

hm... you sanded it too much? does the G2 barrel slides really easily up and down the G3 front? If so... like keane said, put some tape around it to thicken it then finish thickening it by wrapping an insert around it.
I'm sure it won't break, as long as it is snug but not too tight it won't break. (Just don't throw it at the ground really hard.) xD -

I'm sure this has been answered tons of times, but the preferred tool is a razor blade or X-acto knife.
As for the grip cuts thing, there's a method mentioned in the ayatori mod tut thread. I'll even quote it for you:QUOTE (JC)because of some people's inability to cut a grip -.-'' i'll post a small tut for that
1. get some sort of gel inked pen, preferably white (like white hgg or white signos )
2. put the grip that you want to cut over a larger barrel (it should be somewhat difficult to get on, but this is good, you want to stretch the grip out a bit mroe than needed) --(my recommendation is use a G2 barrel that you dont' need )
3. after you have the grip over the g2 barrel, or whatever other cylindrical barrel you end up using, draw the design that you want onto the grip with the gel ink (any mistakes you make with the drawing can be just rubbed off since it's gel ink)
4. get some sort of blade, preferably with a handle just cause it's going to be a fairly long process and your hand's gonna get tired faster if there's no handle 5. then press down onto the grip where the line you just drew is... after you push down, DO NOT SLIDE THE BLADE, lift the blade up, and carefully place the blade down for the next cut, and then push back down...and then lift the blade up again, and then push down again --- etc... ----do this until your design is cut out and then just peel the cut out grip away with your fingers
6. slide the grip off the g2 barrel and you're done -

Correct way is g-spec grip. I guess people use an HGG grip because they don't wanna spend 7 bucks on a Dr. Grip g-spec just for the grip. -

no
all you use from the g-spec is the grip.
kinda a waste, huh?
thats why i just used an rsvp grip (black) and put an insert around it and stuffed it in the cap haha

How to I get out the inktube in a Super Pirat?

Date: Thu, Mar 5 2009 04:11:55
I have an any-x custom that I modded a while ago. It's clicked fine for a long time, but recently it would get stuck while trying to retract. I took it apart and tested each mechanism (spring and inktube, back clicker) and the parts seemed fine, but when I put it all back the problem would still occur. This doesn't really bother me since all I have to do is lightly tap the pen and it'll retract, but it would be nice if someone could help me.
The only difference with the mod I made and the any-x custom tutorial was that I used a toothpick instead of the paper roll to connect the inktube and the clicker. -
Date: Thu, Mar 5 2009 04:15:57
ok, the problem is that the tooth pick is getting stuck in the clicker mechanism, so i would use the paper instead

I make sure the toothpick doesn't stick out of the inner clicker mech in the back so it doesn't make it unclickable. If that's not what you mean then I'll give the paper a try. -

I recently bought a Comssa Jr ( or a comssa v2) and i noticed that the barrel is about the same width as a bictory, only slightly larger. I tried to put bic caps on but it's a bit tight.

if ur a collector/like collecting, then i say go for it
if you want a serious pen that could become your main spinning pen, then possibly find someone who has one and try spin it for a while
bust seeing as you've spun a buster, the kt should be slightly lighter... i think
i personally dont have a kt, but i would like one, possibly only for collection purposes though -

I didn't mean the part with the grip. That part is easy to pull off. I meant the actual tip. Say you had a black (or blue w/e) BIC Round Stic Grip, if you go to the very tip, the actual writing part (where the ink comes out into contact with the paper) you'll see a black (or blue w/e) plastic bit that holds that in place.

hm.. since you said Buster CYL feels a bit heavy, I wouldn't suggest you use Dr. KT because Dr. KT is lighter, but feels heavier when spinning, because it's light in the middle and heavy on the sides.
it's your choice though. -

On the bic round stic, the black or blue plastic piece does not seperate from the clear piece that goes under the grip.
i dont know why you would need to take it away anyways?

It depends how it fits into the G3 cap. If it fits snugly into the G3 cap, then chances are you will have some difficulty squeezing it into an RSVP cap. If you want, you can cut it this way so it fits into the RSVP cap:
if you cut it right, the seam will be invisible.
be careful not to cut too much or the grip will slide out too easily. -

I haven't had an Airfit grip that long, so I can't be 100% sure it doesn't turn yellow. But I don't think it turns yellow.
And yes, it can get dirty...dropped a ComSSa w/ Airfit grips on the ground a couple of times, and they now have a dusty feel to them. So yes, they are dust-magnets, but a quick rinse will make it like-new again.

Acetone is a prime component in Nail Polish Remover.. incase you didnt know.

Hmm.. If im thinking of the write pencil, you should just be able to use the white cartoon comssa method (fold piece of computer paper as small as you can, and rubb like living hell)

You can buy RSVP medium if you dont like the fine ink... however it would be extremely difficult (probably impossible) to fit bic ink in the rsvp.
You would end up just cutting off the front, and haveing to tape everything.. and then the cap wouldnt fit.QUOTE (simzorz` @ Mar 14 2009, 07:53 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Quick question, can the RSVP sunburst be used as a normal RSVP in the RSVP MX mod?

if you have access to papermate kilometrico pens, then those are basically the same as rsvps med
its longer than the rsvp, so you have to cut it abit (you'll work it out w/o measurements) -

I disagree
the front piece is longer in sunbursts, creating a gap between the hgg grip and tip if you're making a MX
and the body is slightly shorter in sunbursts -

It depends on how you remove the print. I think the way stuhl removes it, it gives it a comssa feel. Stuhl uses acetone, but I don't have access to that so idk. For my pirat KS, I used paper like you use it to remove the print from an M&M body. It's really annoying to remove it with paper, and it feels exactly like a cartoon comssa that you removed the print from, or like an M&M body. It feels a bit grainy, not smooth like an original comssa barrel. Maybe like a ballsign barrel but a bit rougher? -

okay. thanks =) I guess I'll stick to a erased Cartoon Comssa body then.
I tried to use nail polish remover to remove the print off a cartoon comssa body, but it was really slow, so I found scraping the body with a tissue to be more efficient. :/ is there a method...?

Just a question (accompanied by a little story). I made a metallic commsa and I screwed the hgg tips onto the nubs really tight... anyway, I let my friend in school (Who's in UPSB as well) borrow it. He was just fooling around, but he throws it really far to see if it would break or something, and it hits the ground. The whole nub breaks and flies off, with the HGG tip still screwed on and it takes like 3 mins just to find it. (We were in a big empty cafeteria)
So I guess my question is...
How do I get the HGG tip back out?
Spoiler:
I tried grabbing the nub with tweezers (too lazy to get pliers x_x) and attempted to screw it out, but I still couldn't.
Suggestions? -

try using a toothpick and pushing it through the end (smaller end) of the HGG tip.

I dont' think you can take it out =\ that's happened to me ~10 times now, and I can never get the little piece of the comssa nub out, i tried pushing it out from the open tip side, i tried leaving it in acetone for a couple days and then trying to take it out again... nothing that i've tried has worked

Maybeeee get a drill and just drill it all away?? i haven't tried that yet, but that could potentially work..be careful while holding onto the hgg tip though =\ -

There you can see the difference in length, watercolor : longer
As for the text, I need to use my nail to scratch off the text for any effect; the old one was scratched up when I got it, probably a ton of drops on concrete/a rough surface.

Date: Thu, Mar 19 2009 03:28:20QUOTE (En-Nova @ Mar 18 2009, 08:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Just a question (accompanied by a little story). I made a metallic commsa and I screwed the hgg tips onto the nubs really tight... anyway, I let my friend in school (Who's in UPSB as well) borrow it. He was just fooling around, but he throws it really far to see if it would break or something, and it hits the ground. The whole nub breaks and flies off, with the HGG tip still screwed on and it takes like 3 mins just to find it. (We were in a big empty cafeteria)
So I guess my question is...
How do I get the HGG tip back out?
Spoiler:
I tried grabbing the nub with tweezers (too lazy to get pliers x_x) and attempted to screw it out, but I still couldn't.
Suggestions?
I've had this happen once... I took an X-acto knife, and started cutting out pieces of the comssa nub. If you can, try to get the X-acto knife stuck in the plastic, and then you should be able to unscrew it. -

btw, it doesn't have to be a boiling water. You should try hot water from your bathroom tap first. I used to do that when i tried to get a grip off.
And the hot water (or boiling water) if you are still having trouble, put a rubber gloves on and then try. More friction. -

Place the tip on the comssa cap, and while it's there, use a rubber band to take hold of it tightly (wrap it around if you need to...) and then screw it in (not just push, twist it in)
That way...it'll stay (and if you wanna get it out, do the same thing with teh rubberband, but twist it out the opposite way) -

Regarding the color removal from the stuhl mod grips. The white HGG's.
They cannot be cleaned, the way the Pirat KS is spun causes a lot of oil and grease from the spinners hand to transfer into the grip giving it that tan appearance.
Once the oil has sat for more than 6hrs or so it fills in with the rubber used. It's a more powerful dye.
If you've ever watched stuhl spinning, his white grips are tan as well -

guit's method:
you get tape (the thick, clear ones) and you wrap the end of it around the clip (dont let it overlap onto the body)
scrunch the other free end and pull hard
that usually gets the clip off of normal g2's
the g2's i get (6 for $1.80), you cannot get them off. ever. period.
i tried cutting it, sanding it down, but i think its glued on
i might post pics later

The way I did it, was I had an alpha gel pencil. For the larger ones, poke a hole through the grip and drain it, and for the smaller ones, turn it inside out and scratch off the black squishy stuff. It makes a pretty good sub, if you don't mind wasting an alpha gel

1. Take some pliers.
2. Carefully remove the metal piece in front. (Do not damage it, and take it out carefully or ink will splatter) It's best to do this over a trashcan.
3. Then take a little plastic baggie
4. Inhale deeply. (be sure to do this BEFORE the next step)
5. Put your mouth on the CLEAN side of the inktube.
6. Blow out the ink INTO the plastic baggie.
7. Discard the plastic baggie (with the ink inside) properly/
8. Turn on your faucet a little bit so the water is a really thin stream.
9. Then let the water run through the inktube to flush out all the leftover ink (this MAY stain your sink, so be sure to wash your sink afterward).
10. Once the water has flushed through the inktube, turn off your faucet and click the metal piece back onto the inktube..
and then you're good to go

This is my method, I think it is the easiest, fastest, cleanest way yet. Pull out the tip of the inktube. Go over a trashcan and grab a few q-tips. Pull a little bit of cotton off the end so it can fit in the inktube. Insert it into the clean side and push the ink out. Repeat this a couple of times to remove ink and to get out the previous q-tip. You can use this method for g2 inktube. -

this is hard because the grip is transparent...-only way is to remove the "pink ink" I suggest trying to wash it with alcohol or try rubing it with baking soda mixed together with water into the grip. U can also try washing it with detergent or lett the grip soak in warm water for some days-hopefully osmosis will occur. I am not very sure how to solve this problem, all these are purely suggestions, hopefully you can remove the stain!

I don't know if this question belongs here but:
does the white sticker on the watercolor pen mod go on:
the lower part of cap (the wider part of cap with the little bump on it)
or the part where the grip goes on (the lower in diameter one) -

if you want yours too look exactly like sevens, you should put it on the lower part with the bump. -

Ever since I've made my first MX^2 (it might have also happend when I made MXs, but I'm not sure) I've experienced a problem or rattling- and all these mods didn't have an inktube >_>
I believe the rattling comes from the tips in the front, somehow touching each other and creating noise. since I don't like super gluing stuff like tips, I've just used teflon, and for a while it worked and didn't make any noise, but after a while the noise came back and I could get rid of it. even if I disassembled the pen and added more teflon/ switched the old one with new it was only a short term solution and the rattling noise would've come back after a while.
Any Ideas how to solve this will be appreciated

Yes, I've had a problem with rattling before too. I'm pretty sure that the tip attatched to the RSVP tip isn't rattling, but the 2nd tip will rattle. Wrap some clear tape around the tip connected to the RSVP tip. So it will go RSVP tip-> HGG tip w/ tape wrapped around it-> other HGG tip. Now this has the problem of the 2nd HGG tip not being connected, use clear packaging tape to connect those. -

Take a pari of scissors and line up the blades with the seam dividing the backplug and the body. Push down on the seam as if you were trying to cut it in half. After some trys the backplug should come loose and pop out a little. Then use pliers and simply pull it out. -

so you just rub that off with your fingers or an eraser -

IMO, it looks better with the round RSVP back cap on it...
But if you wanted to, I guess you could attach the HGG tip to a part of the g2 inktube, then wrap some tape around the g2 inktube and put it inside the RSVP barrel. -

all i really suggest is using a hacksaw, or taking clear tape wrapping it around the tip and the barrel then hiding the shame with a grip. it wont be an mx anymore but it'll be less back heavy. if you have the right sand paper and enough patience i also suggest sanding it down. -

yeah i agree with midnight_xhris on the sanding part.
unless u got the time, u can sand it down

the easiest method is probably to just take a regular RSVP without a grip, and stick it in the cap. it should get the grip out, if not you can use tweezers. be careful though, it might rip the grip. -

This could have ALL been answered in the QMQ thread, you didn't need another topic for it
The only way that I know how to remove it is, you use Nail Polish Remover and a cotton swab and rub it against the barrel and it will come off gradually.
I've also heard that you can use paper to rub it off, but I tried it and it didn't work. -

Well, I found this tip today at school and i'm wondering what pen comes from!
It seems like a G3 or G1, but it's not the same...
Hope you can help!
-
Date: Tue, Apr 28 2009 14:39:27
It isn't a G1
Btw,is it metal? -
Date: Tue, Apr 28 2009 17:29:20
well..because of the lip, there are only a few pens with metal tips that have a lip.
1. Ohto Needle-point
2. Pilot G3
3. Pilot Hi-Tec-C (or G-Tec)
I highly doubt that it is needle-point (from japan only)
and it looks a tad too thin to be a G3, so i say that it would be a G-tec. -

Kinda late but if you still want to know, you can always submerge the end of the bellcolor into hot water so the glue loosens up a bit and then use pliers. Yeah it is kind of hard to do but it should work =/ -

Double cap a Dong-A Sign pen. Add grips of your choice over the cap on each side. Most people use Anyball/Profile grips but you can use what ever you like. Thats how you make a Comssa. To make it Metallic, take two Hgg Tips and add them onto the cap. They should screw on to the nub on top of the comssa cap. -

rubbing alcohol i think it would work well
but it would work better if you removed the grip
and water is fine too, just rubbing alcohol dries a lot faster -

If they are wrong, which ones should i buy? -

American Dr.Grips and Japanese/French Dr.Grips have different grips. Jap/French grips are thicker and wider and are used in mods like Fireflys G3 mod, Bonkuras Black CT, and some more. American Dr.Grips are thinner and shorter. They are usually used as a sub for Jap ones in mods like the Metallic Comssa. The grips from the American Dr.Grip are useful. The tip is also used as a sub for the Jap one for people who want a lighter Dr.Kt, since the American tip is lighter. -
Date: Thu, Apr 30 2009 03:45:37
So are all the grips on Dr.Grip American the same? or do they differ depending on whether it is a pen or mech. pencil.

If you don't want to remove the grip, dip the cap into hot water. The grip will expand and you can push it more onto the cap. But im not sure what will happen to the cap. If there is no glue or something which is stuck to it, you can follow this procedure. -

The comssa backplug's thread area is soft, so using a rubber band right away may cause you to squish the backplug. I say yeah, sure, give that a shot at first..but if you start deforming the backplug..stop, and use the superglue, then rubber band. -

Actually, you shouldn't do that. after using this method for a while, I noticed the paper clip starts scratching the cap from the inside, leaving marks. Not nice =( -

i have for you guys one of my main tools for modding: an hgg body. no grip no ink.
fits rsvp grip perfectly on the front end,
just push it in as far as you can, and push hard to one side while taking it out, it should come out easily.
and then you can use the backside for pushing it back in....

I just stick a 1/4 inch flatheads screwdriver in the front end and wiggle it around all inside the grip.
Then use your nails and push it down to the front. -

I've used those for a few school mods. You can buy them at target most the time in the Pen Aisle.
The pencil is really light and very cheap plastic-e. It's not bad if you need something real quick to spin in class with an RSVP cap on it or something, but otherwise it's nothing special.QUOTEIt's not exactly a question about modding, but about a mod.

MX +XA(extended) + SA (ending in comssa)
MSXA.

Just lay the vinyl tape out on a table, and cut a design into them. You might want something under it so that the razor blade/x-acto knife doesn't damage the table. Then remove the vinyl tape off the table and place it onto the desired barrel (it should be sticky enough to stay on).
You can buy them in art stores like Michaels or Pearls. -

I can't exactly tell you how to mod it, but just looking at it, I would think it was something like this:
(btw i left out the details, but you can probably see them from this picture
1) take the rsvp. put the rsvp grip into g3 cap
1.5) slide the cap over the back end of the rsvp
2) put some profile rings over the g3 cap
3) shave down the rsvp rings on the tip and slide an hgg grip over
4) make your gripcuts on the signo knock and slide the gripcutted grip over the hgg on the front
5) at the very front i think its: cut a portion of an hgg grip and slide it in front of the signo knock (gripcutted)
correct me if I'm wrong. this is just my idea of how TEK made the mod
parts:
rsvp, g3, signo knock, hgg, telescopic
(although im not sure what TEK uses the telescopic for) -

I have a feeling the front is HGG on top of a G3 tip, and then at the back it has a telescopic tip hidden in the HGG grip for balance purposes...
Because i don't think one tip at the front would be long enough... ^^;; That's just my opinion anyway, i could be wrong too -

noob spinner here.
I've been spinning two mods I made: a RSVP v1 and my own little mod of two papermate flexgrip elites glued/gripped together.
Spinning my double flexgrip is easy because the entire barrel is grippy and it's overly long. Thumbarounds, fingerpass, sonic, all smooth as butter. I just feel like I'm cheating cause it's 10.5 inches long. (26.7 cms.)
Whenever I spin my RSVP v1, the weight and balance are superb but I have a problem: the clear plastic barrel is too slick, and when I do fingerpass and charge is just slips out of my fingers. Also the plastic caps slide out of my fingers when I do infinities. Do I just need to put grips all over the barrel or is it just my lack of pen control? -
Date: Sun, Jun 7 2009 19:25:20
It takes some time to get used to spinning hard barreled pens, such as RSVP. keep spinning with it and the slippery feeling will most likely pass with time :] if it doesn't- simply spin soft barreled mods, or try other hard barreled pens such as G3 =P
And about the cap, first of all it would be easier doing infinity while holding the grip, of course =P If you want to make sure you could do infinity on both sides of the pen I'll suggest putting some grip on the cap. just notice it might change the pens balance. -
Date: Sun, Jun 7 2009 19:26:24
You need better control.
And the cap thing shouldn't happen if you're doing infinities on the gripped end.
Edit: Whoops, Resonance beat me to it -

Thanks for the quick reply everyone!
I double capped my RSVP v1 so the entire surface is hard plastic. Sorry, should have specified that.

Thanks again. -

Unless I'm mistaken, a RSVP V1 should still have the RSVP grip at the front, for infinity...

Do you have a driller?
Drill a small hole from the ball-end side of the RSVP cap. (enough so it doesnt drill the ball)
then take a toothpick or something to push the ball out of the cap and it will touch the hgg tip ito force it out as well.
Then, you can put the ball back in if you want. (use that chopstick)
It should 'pop' right back in.
The hole is totally unnoticable too (if it is small)

I'm not being clear, sorry.
This pen: http://www.uniball-na.com/main.taf?p=2,2,2
This is the only signo I can find at the stores. Look at the tip, it's huge and has little grooves in it. It's like, twice as big as an hgg tip, right? (note: i've never really owned an hgg, but looking at them in pictures, this is my guess)
This pen: http://www.uniball-na.com/main.taf?p=2,2,7
This is the pen that I was referring to as "the closest looking" to an hgg tip. I went into Office Depot and took one apart. It seems to be the closest subsitute. I diddn't buy it though cause they only sold them in packs of 12 and I wasn't going to drop $12 US on pens just for the tips without knowing it's going to work.
The reason for all this madness:
I'm trying to mod some profiles and G2s into an Any-X retractable. I've got all the parts I need exept the hgg tip.
And no, I can't find anything from Pentel in my town aside from the RSVPs. No hybrid gel grips or hybrid gel rollers.

use an HGG barrel with the threads still attached, and poke it into the cap, screw it into the hgg tip and pull it out. you have to file down the front of the hgg barrel first -

This pen: http://www.uniball-na.com/main.taf?p=2,2,2
This is the only signo I can find at the stores. Look at the tip, it's huge and has little grooves in it. It's like, twice as big as an hgg tip, right? (note: i've never really owned an hgg, but looking at them in pictures, this is my guess)
This pen: http://www.uniball-na.com/main.taf?p=2,2,7
This is the pen that I was referring to as "the closest looking" to an hgg tip. I went into Office Depot and took one apart. It seems to be the closest subsitute. I diddn't buy it though cause they only sold them in packs of 12 and I wasn't going to drop $12 US on pens just for the tips without knowing it's going to work.
The reason for all this madness:
I'm trying to mod some profiles and G2s into an Any-X retractable. I've got all the parts I need exept the hgg tip.
And no, I can't find anything from Pentel in my town aside from the RSVPs. No hybrid gel grips or hybrid gel rollers.
Thanks.
In bold is probably the most common US substitute for the hgg tip. The first link you posted is the wrong signo, the tip is most likely plastic.
This is the signo people are usually referring to concerning tips: http://www.uniball-na.com/main.taf?p=2,2,7
There aren't any exact subs for the hgg tips in the US as I know of other than the old hybrid gel grips.

Nop, the backcap is larger on the half closer to the pen... the other half of the backcap is smaller and the hyperjell grip just fits onto it ^^
lengthwise, mine is about 19.9 cm... and i used original parts ^^ i.e. lakubo body, signo tips, hyperjell cap+grip.. etc. etc.

The COG =/= COP in my RRMMX. Is the mod supposed to be this way?
If not, how do I balance it? I already used an entire anygrip/profile grip on one side to balance it, but it's not heavy enough, and it takes too much spinning room.
The COG is 1.5cms towards the front of the mod, where the writing tip is. -

Thats from stress, the cap is stretching either because:
A) the backyou are putting it on is too wide (you shouldnt have to force it on like crazy)
B ) repeated drops etc. will cause the cap to bend and thus be stressed and stretch -

Its called cap cloud. It occurs when the cap is streched. To prevent it you can to find the perfect amount of tape. Ex. Firefly mod, G3 mods all use tape to hold on caps.
Or try not to force the cap to much -

The G2 Grip + Ring is suppose to be on a bic round stic grip cap with the whole ring that has part of the clip cut off but whenever I put the G2-EX grip over it it will slide down and make it impossible to fully put the G2-Ex grip over it.

Never tried,never wondered,but why not use detergent and dunk those dirty looking grips into them for lets say,15 minutes?When you take it out,i suppose it will be clean,but might not be as clean on the day that you buy it.I tried it on my airfit grips and it worked perfectly i can say.
But UPSBers(?) , Is my method legitimate to be used on the grips without hurting them for a prolonged time?

Moons and cubix and sunburst are the same as reg asvp only dif barrel designs and/or an insert and/or grip color.
For the comssa question, depends on which you want. metallic is heavier than regular and momentum is heaver than metallic I think. imo momentum doesn't look very nice and I want something heavier than reg comssa so I would go for the metallic.
Also beginner spinners should go for lighter mods while more experienced spinners may desire more weight.

Alright this is my method and it works quite well, but I would recommend doing it outside, and be careful not to get it on your clothes, it will ruin them.
1. Take a paper towel or two, and use it to cover the opening in the bottle of remover
2. Tip the bottle over so that the remover gets on the towel, but do not pour it, that will make it rip.
3. Hold the towel in a conic shape and then rub the body through the towel until all the text is off.
Don't worry about ruining the body, nail polish remover will only remove the text.
But still, don't pour the remover.

thanks nacho. My local stored don't have black rsvps, just blue (which i don't like very much), red, and the variants.
i also like the heavier pens (as well as a bit thicker). i tend to write with lighter and skinnier pens by grabbing them really hard, causing my fingers to feel weird, and the same goes when i spin. And like with my Spinz ronin, it is harder for me to handle the lighter pens since when i try to spin the pen i'll push to hard, which makes the pen fly off, or if i make mistakes, i tap them in a feeble attempt to catch them and they go flying off.
as for asking which are better, i wanted to have some idea as to what to look for in the stores by my house. the stores have a lot of pens and i dont want to wast money on pens that i will never use (and pens i will have laying on my desk or in my desk cabinet just collecting dust.
I just checked some of the Mods out, and i was wondering if i can use the Staples Comfort Stic (like the first version) instead of the Bic Round? i had some of the bic pens lying around, but i put them somewhere or threw them out when i got my new desk. I have the staples Comfort Stic (again, the old version) and they seems similar. i want to use the bictory as a substitute till i can get some pens for an RSVP MX orbuy a Comssa off penwish -

Pretty sure staples comfort stic would make a pretty decent bictory sub.
If ur gonna buy comssa, why don't u consider making one first? Relatively cheap and simple. Only hard part would be the gripcutting imo. I would do this if i were u unless you plan on buying ur mods throughout the future. Good practice...
Also don't buy the mx's off of pw. (No offense) but they are really overpriced. Costs like 6-7 dollars for one when the parts cost around 4 or 5.
If you want around that kind of weight, i suggest mods such as:
RG2T
Ballsign mod or Ballsign MPMX
MPMX (V.3, dori style, etc.)
Hybrid DC-HGG
Waterfall maybe (if you can get parts)
R-STic
Lemon Mod
Atlant-X
MSXA
Namaezing Mod
Stylish Pirat
HSMX
Onyx Mod
Socomgel mod (availible on pw)
Elite Bic
Grip Aviare
These are a bit harder imo

I think you use the same method (heat a nail or use a drill)
Hole looks bigger than an mx hole so the drill or nail should be wider than one used for a regular mx back cap. -

The HGG grips are probably caused by too much use on your part.
They get dirty as stuff like your skin or sweat gets onto it. White grips are like that and the grip texture of the HGG doesn't help either. -

Nah it comes off but I just want it to stay clean. Will these keep em clean for long periods of time. I'm skeptical on the nail polish remover cuz I used it to remove the text from the barrel and now its dirty again. -

msxa is a bit longer but you can make it more balanced by throwing a bunch of tips in the cap. MX is a nice mod as well you may not like the extra weight or length but you never know till you try=p

-
Date: Sun, Nov 8 2009 02:25:21
What you can do is tape the tip of the inktube (the part where it is metal and not plastic). This will thicken the inktube so that it will no longer rattle against the papermate gel backcap.

- Submerge grip in hot water until it expands and slides off. The grip will shrink as it cools.
- Crush the pen underneath if you don't need it, remove grip from crushed pen.
- Wrap grip with a towel, pull really hard.
- Lift an edge of the grip and spray with WD-40, wrap grip with towel, pull grip off.
How to remove HGG/G2 Grips (by TEK)
How to remove the G2 grip: by Guitrum
How to remove the G2 clip: By Guitrum
How to cut a G2 section: By Guitrum
What do I use to cut barrels?- Wire cutters
- X-acto knife
- Hacksaw
How do I keep the metal HGG tip attached to the plastic RSVP tip?- Just screw the tip right onto the plastic.
- Wrap teflon tape around the plastic tip, screw the metal tip into the tape. (Teflon tape is used to insulate plumbing, it's stretchy)
How do I remove the colored clip ring on the back of the G2?- Break the clip off so that there is a U-shaped hole at the top of the band. Pull the rest of the band off.
What is a BICssa?- BICssa is an old name for a BICtory that has a black barrel and white caps, similar to a Comssa. We don't use this name anymore. Just call them all BICtories.
What are the dimensions of an insert for the RSVP barrel?- Width: 9cm
- Height: 3.81cm
- COP is located 4cm from the "back" side (where the RSVP cap will be located).
- Only 1/2 of the insert (vertically) will be visible when the insert is rolled up.
- Only 1/4 of the insert will be visible at any time when looking straight on at the insert.
How do I empty a G2 barrel?- Take the tiny plug out of the back of the G2 Refill
- Fill the sandwich bag with some water (not too much)
- Place the G2 Refill inside the sandwich bag and hold it from outside the sandwich bag.
- Using pliers, press, hold, and twist off the tip of the G2 refill (FROM THE OUTSIDE OF THE SANDWICH BAG) and let the ink come out. (You might want to leave the area and come back in a few hours if you want to make sure all of it gets out.)
- Run some water through the g2 refill and clear it of any ink marks.
- Now the glue will be inside the g2 refill. Using a barbeque stick, push through the g2 refill and try to push the glue out. The glue is very sticky so avoid getting it on your skin.
- Run some more water through the g2 refill and clear out anything left inside with the barbeque stick.
How do I properly insert a paper insert into a barrel?- Roll the insert around the inktube.
- Slide the rolled insert into the barrel.
- Use the inktube to nudge the insert into place.
How do I balance my Comssa Mod?- Shove a bit of paper into the lighter side until it all balances out.
How do remove the writing on a RSVP barrel?- Use an eraser to rub off the writing. Silver writing (Fine line) comes off more easily than Gold writing (Medium line).
What is a good length for a finished pen mod?- To start, a mod should be about the same distance between the top of the wrist and the tip of your Middle finger. Anything shorter or longer than that is up to you. Generally, the longer the length beyond this measurement, the more likely it is that you will recieve negative comments about the mod being too longer. In the end though, it is all personal preference.
Which Signo tip should I use for the BICtory mod?- Any Signo tip that has a "lip" at the bottom should work. The tip will not slide over the BIC cap, you need to use a grip (and maybe tape) to hold the tip onto the end of the cap.
What size G2 pen should I buy?- It depends on what you want. The 0.5 size has a clear barrel that is better for inserts, the 0.7 size has a tinted barrel.
How remove an eraser to add it to the back of a pencil without ruining anything?- Twist the eraser untill the seal breaks then put it on the other pencil and pinch it so it holds.
- Cut some of the wood underneeth of the metal it slips it off, shave down the part where the eraser will go until metal piece fits snugly.
How do remove the back plug of a Bic Round Stic or Bic Stip Grip?- Take pliers or scissor and gently squeeze the barrel until you hear cracking, that's the seal being broken.
- Boil some water to melt the glue.
- Place the barrel over the skewer
- Hold both the barrel and skewer in the air
- Let go of the skewer and slam the barrel down to the ground
- The skewer should force the back plug off of the barrel.
How do I unscrew a HGG tip from a ComSsa cap?- Grab a HGG grip, hold it tightly around the tip and screw it off.
- Wrap a rubber band around the tip and unscrew it.
- Wrap shirt around tip and pull.
How do you remove a G3 grip?- Slide something underneath the grip
Any tips on cutting Anyball / Profile / Star Gel Max grips?- Read this UCPSB thread
How do fix loose caps?- Wrap clear tape around the barrel underneath the cap.
How do remove the glue from an RSVP cap that has a barcode sticker?- Acetone
- Grab a sticker and use it to pull the glue off.
How do I keep a HGG tip on the black Comssa cap?- Wrap clear tape around the nub before screwing on the tip.
- See this thread

Original Thread
how do you remove hgg grips (the video says it was deleted ) -
Date: Tue, Nov 24 2009 14:26:40
The easiest way to remove hgg grips is to either stick a paper clip under neath the grip to loosen the bond between the grip and the barrel or you can leave the portion of the barrel with the grip in BOILING water for about 1-2 minutes. Then flex some muscles and push or pull until grip comes off.
Also try not to quote the whole thing it's quite long =p -

They are basically the same. Regular RSVP caps have a ball in the top of the cap, while sunbursts have a disk in the top. For the mods that you listed, it doesnt make a difference. -
Date: Sat, Nov 28 2009 08:48:04
For Mxs it won't make a difference but for mods where you need tips or grip pushed back into the cap the sunburst cap doesn't let you push it back as far.

Barrels... i dont think so, the RSVP grip is too think. Without the grip, lots of barrels fit on there such as G2 barrels.
Some caps might fit over the RSVP barrel WITH grip like comssa caps. But idk, just experiment and try it out. -

Use a razor and push straight down. Sometimes just try to cut the desired part evenly if it's not straight; when it is on a barrel and after you set it up it may be trimmed so that it is straight using a razor just slowly go around the barrel. be VERY careful doing this as i tis easy to nick or cut off a finger=/

Ouch grip cutting without a razor or x acto is very hard to do.
Scissors wont help since you need to grip to be on the pen while cutting, plus scissors arent sharp at all.
I'd suggest going out to get a razor or atleast an xacto. Or if u have a small sharp knife (such as a swiss army knife). Make sure the knives arent dull.

Stick in the G3 tip then insert the GM grip and paper W/O the tip. once the grip//paper is in screw the GM tip onto the body and shove into the cap as far as you can. Then just unscrew and pull the body out. -

I said this in the shoutbox but posting it for others to know.
Use pliers to remove the backplug, its really simple. If you have the old kinds (which must be really old), screw in a nail or something and pull in out (using brute force.)
Cutting it easy too. Just use an xacto or some sort of knife, but make sure the knife is sharp. File/sand to make the cut look better
I also realize that STs are expensive where you live, so i also suggest getting an American trader. STs are "dirt cheap (lol)" in US.
They are around 50 for $4-5 USD, so you can buy them in bulk. -

Q2: Uses for Rubbing Alcohol? (have a whole bottle and not using it alot) -
Date: Fri, Dec 25 2009 00:27:33
You can rub off the super pirat design with a folded up piece of paper. I personally don't recommend it because it can scratch the barrel if you do it wrong. I used rubbing alcohol and tissue paper to rub off the design on my super pirat. In addition to using the rubbing alcohol to clean off bodies, I also use to to remove stray ink marks inside the caps of my MXs.

Hand sanitizer works well too and has a better consistency so it is better to use. It is also a little less strong that rubbing alcohol so it doesn't give your eyes that funny feeling.

Hmm. For some reason I got a blue super pirat from you (not blaming or anything) but can't get the text to rub off. I'm using a brand of nail polish remover that I used effectively on my two previous super pirat bodies and the first ingredient is acetone but I spent about 15 minutes of rubbing today and it won't come off. I used paper towels but if I rub harder it makes this weird rough squeak sound kind of like a duck quacking. weird? advice?QUOTE (Kaffatsum @ Dec 28 2009, 04:34 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Any tips on perfect 45 degree cuts on MX's?

I guess that might be the right place to ask...
I'm looking for a tip for a mod I'm trying to make. I should be kind of heavier then a signo, but not as heavy as a Dr grip, and if possible, not as wide (I hate the bump you get in the grips when using Dr. grips and such)
Can you guys think of a tip that matches most, if not all of these? I'd really appreciate it x: -

They fit quite snugly. If you drop or hit the tip it moves slightly but if you put enough grip its fine. -

The original was made using a miffy body. If you one of those, cut off the front part of it, gut it with an x-acto and then put plugs on both sides. Granted it'll be a tid-bit shorter, but it'll still be the a CK mod. -

After wasting a quarter of a bottle of nail polish remover in a failed attempt to rub off my blue super pirat body, I decided to use the old paper method (guitrum's way?)
At first it looked nice and clean but after a day it got pretty dirty. I've tried hoiboy's method of rubbing it with an eraser and rubbing alcohol and it helped a bit but now it still gets kind of dirty. I wash it constantly with water and soap to retain the cleanliness.
Any ideas? -

Paper method makes pirats ugly and any barrel ugly for that matter. For any barrel I clean i use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser and it makes the barrel feel really nice. For Super Pirats and other tough barrels i break the top layer of the design with acetone based nail polish then remove the rest with a magic eraser. -

White spin case is pretty nice and it gives you a great place to put your mods in. The only downside is the price. It's about 19 bucks as you've probably noticed versus a pds case which is only around 12 bucks.QUOTE (Kirby @ Jan 13 2010, 04:46 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>those sound good except metal comssa I recammend waterfall parts (2 reynolds caps, 2 dr. grip shaker grips? a super pirat, and 2 uni signos) or a tornado mod instead.
Yeah the metal comssa is kind of a waste. It costs about 3.5 bucks more than a standard comssa sold on pw without tips. You can just buy his hgg tips by themselves for 70cents each and screw them on yourself. you save about a buck doing that.
Also like kirby said, waterfall is a biggy. Probably one of my favorites. It seems like you are getting a wide variety of weights for your mods and i find that waterfall weight is a nice middle point between the weights of a buster and a metal comssa. I read on the SB someone saying that "It's not too heavy and it's not too light". (srry i can't cite whoever said it)
Other than that, i suggest that you try a Stuhl mod

The problem with getting a PDS case is that yes it is 7 dollars less but shipping is around 35-40 dollars. You could make a group order but you still need to deal with splitting shipping and order out of the country. Penwish, if you live in the US, offers free shipping for orders over $26 so if your spending $20 you might as well get some more stuff for free shipping. The price pretty much evens out. Plus Penwish has more colors.

Signo tips fit perfectly inside the back of a ST body.
File down the front, and use about 1.3 cm of a bic body in the back, and then place 2 3.7 cm sections from the back of 2 other ST's, and add signos.. Hope that helps

go out to the store, get acetone.
The chemical, not some nail polish remover.
Use it, in conjunction with a slight abrasive (obviously)
something like paper, paper towel, etc.etc.
did you use an abrasive in conjuction with the chemicals before?

DX is dimpled all the way
lakubo is only on the front dimplex and lakubo is longer -
Date: Tue, Jan 19 2010 02:37:02
lakubos are longer than dx
and dx's are level all the way across the grip
lakubos have a curved shape
they aren't really similar, so they can't be interchangeably subbed -

ive tried:
non-acetone nail polish remover(ineffective)
Acetone nail polish remover( slightly less ineffective)
guitrum's method(kinda effective but time consuming and left brown black spots[even harder to get off])
and a coffe filter(ineffective)
I actually found this to be effective:
Use Guitrum's method + an Eraser when it gets dirty. Then clean with soap and water every so often and when it gets dirty again, repeat.
Before, Hoiboy suggested that I use an eraser and rubbing alcohol. I was just using the eraser to try to get the text off but it's meant to clean the barrel.
If you do this, you should start to see that your barrel will get dirtier less and less and it wills tay clean for longer and longer. This is what I've noticed. You can also try Nail Polish REmover/Acetone + Eraser...QUOTE (Kirby @ Jan 18 2010, 07:20 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Any subs for airfit ring. Like any other pens with a shiney ring.

You should try stretching it with needle nose pliers (pull the grip onto the nose and then pull the handles of the pliers but don't pull too hard or the grip might rip) and then sliding it onto the other grip. Water, soap, and other lubricants are also worth trying. -

basically

I think you can use a bic round stick to connect them. Just put inserts over it. I remember seeing a mod that used 2 g2 bodies and signo tips and hyperjell grips and something to connect them. I think it was bic round stick but not 100% sure.

Spoiler:
I took the rubber stopper out of mine. The gripmatic tip should drop into the g3 cap and fin snugly if pushed far enough in. Then I followed that with the gripmatic grip and insert. The tip+grip+insert package deal was too hard for me and the insert kept getting crumpled...
Here's a question of mine:
How do you effectively put paper in the airfit grips? Do you just shove it in or if you are looking as if it is on a table and you are looking through it like a telescope, do you cut the sections that hold the smaller ring of grip with the larger right?

You put the G3 tip in first, then put in the insert/grip. Then ( I screw the GM tip back on the body but you could use something else) Shove the GM tip into the grip/cap as far as you can. Try using spit or something to lube the tip, it should help. -

Hmm seems like the gripmatic tip always crumples the insert. Will it affect the momentum if I stick the GM tip in the g3 cap, then put in grip+insert, then shove the G3 tip into the grip? -

Probably not but it will be wrong, And the body wont fit since the grip is now in the way. -

Yeah unfortunetaly it will be wrong but still, I can live with that if it still spins normally.
Second part: Err what do you mean? it still looks like what I had before.
The GM tip goes all the way back, the GM grip goes in with insert, g3 tip goes into the grip, and there is still about 1cm-1.5cm space for the body with the blk electrical tape.
I take out the g3 rubber stopper thing btw.

Well one way is to use the mech from the back of a BIC clic stic and use that + tape instead of a comssa backplug
Then, on the other side you can make a hole in the comssa cap large enough for an inktube to pass through
Use an extended inktube + tape + spring to make the inktube for the mod
However this means you'll have to take off the cap on the bic clic stic side in order to click it ^^" -

Or makeit writable like a buhryan sc:
1 hgg tip and rsvp inktube and buster.
Wrap tape around the end
stick the end into the comssa back plug
cut a bit of the front part of the st so the hgg tip can go over
stick the rsvpinktube/comssa backplug package into the back of the st
the rsvp inktube hsould come out of the other side
then wrap tape around that nub and screw on the hgg tip
Or do it without the tip by just wrapping tape around near the front of the rsvp inktube. It hsoud hold steady then... -

depending on the rsvp, some grips will be stretchier than others. try gradually sliding the grip on a thick barrel to stretch it. but ya, rsvp grips aren't the best for comssa caps because they rip/tear to often. try anyball/profile or g2 -

Pretty sure he means cracking.
But pretty sure there is no way to strengthen it. Maybe cleaner/less unnecessary cuts and less drops/stress on the cap. -

I'm trying to mod my RSVP V1 into a subbed MX. i'm planning on using a G2 grip and a Signo Tip. my only concern is that the singo tip doesnt fit onto the rsvp tip, like the signo tip is wider by a lot. is that normal?
also, should this mod work out good? i'm only using the G2 and signo because i can't get HGGs.
also, incase it might be a factor, my signo tip is from a Uniball Signo Gel Grip (0.7) -

It should be a lot wider than the tip. You can widen the tip of the rsvp with teflon or scotch tape and then screw the signo tip on or if oyu want, super glue it on. -

i was thinking of using teflon tape, but i was not sure if that would be able to fill in the gap. i'll try it out at the end of the week, when everything slows down for me. \
while i am here, anyone know where the post about how to get various grips off of the barrels? i remember there was one that listed the grip and how to take it off, but i have only been able to find a "general" list on how to get grips off. just asking cause i can't find a way to get the G2 grip off w/o ruining the grip (nail marks and other marks) -

some pens do write with it, as long as you don't push in the toothpick too far. They don't instantly stop writing but after a while they do.(earlier as normal pens)

pretty much any rubbery grip will fit over anything as long as you are willing to stretch it out a bit. use rubbing alcohol as an agent to get grips on thicker barrells

Yeah do what penwish and cards said but when you stretch grips in general, I suggest needle nose pliers. pull the grip over the nose and then pull on the handles but don't do it too much to one grip or apply too much pressure or the grip might rip.
The impact rt grip should, however, fit without stretching over the g2 barrel. -

I've done it before, it works but only to a certain extent
It's also quite labor-intensive, soak it in a very concentrated solution of bleach + water, take it out after a couple of minutes, rub it quickly with a damp paper towel, wash it out with running water, put it back in, take it out, rub it with a damp paper towel, wash it with running water, put it back in, repeat....for about an hour.
I managed to get an extremely yellowed Super Grip somewhat more transparent, but it was still nowhere near the original color of the grip. -

I have a question about comssas.
I have a friend who lives in South Korea. I told him about my obsession with pen spinning and how there are a lot of cool mods made out of comssas. So, I asked him to send me a box or two of comssas. What I didn't realize is that there are many different types of comssas. When I received my friends box in the mail, I got three types of comssas. All of them are double sided and none look like the ones in the photos of the modification tutorials. Is there a standard single-sided pen that is used in the tutorial? I need to tell my friend exactly what type so he doesn't send the wrong kind again.
I now know that there are 2 or 3 kinds of Dong-A Computer Sign Pen. Does anyone know the name of the particular Dong-A Computer Sign Pen that is used in the modification tutorials such as the one used in the MP Comssa Metallic? The exact name would be helpful (not just "comssa metalic")

a normal Dong-a Computer Sign Pen (or simply, a comssa pen) is a one sided pen. to make a comssa mod, people take on, remove the ink, and double cap (grips and tips are of course your choice)

That is basically a really difficult to make. I'd suggest trying to make easier mods. Kam spend 20+ hours on his firefly g3 led and he's one of the better modders. If you are new to modding this is way too tough. 90% of modders out there probably can't make it or make it properly and the parts aren't exactly easy to get or cheap either. -

Depends. I spend about 15-20 mins on sanding alone on the g3 front part. But besides that and cutting the dr. grips, I think everything else is quite easy.
And if you sand too much, it will break easily. I've had no problems with any of my f1r3flies though so... -

I'm just saying you need to be pretty careful with dr. grips when you cut them cuz they're so much more expensive than other grips like g2's or anyballs. It's just like any other grip besides the cost

Yellow MX = Yellow HGG + Yellow sunburst or regular rsvp body + inktube + Yellow sunburst back cap + yellow sunburst grip + yellow sunburst cap
My fav. color is probably red, green, and gold mx^2 or an all skyblue sunburst mx or an all green colors mx

Yeah, what nacho said basically sums it up. Use Yellow Sunburst.
My favorite rsvp mx color would probably be orange colors mx or a blue/red combo like geeko's here
And to not make this post completely counter-productive:
Can you sub an rsvp body for g3 in the f1r3fly g3 mod?
If so, how do you get the g3 inktube to fit and the rsvp to fit in the g3 cap?
-
Date: Sun, Feb 21 2010 17:07:24
Yes I do this with my F1r3fly. You shave the thin part of RSVP toward the end (like the last 6 or 7 centimeters). Then the G2 peice slides over nicely. I dont use any inktube in the front its unessecary. the Dr. grip just holds in the Gripmatic tip in place. Lastly un screw the RSVP backcap and get rid of it, and just wrap a little tape on the threads. Then it should fit nicley in the G3 cap.
I think that this spins better then normal firefly, is more durable, and easier to make. -

Yup but then it's a fake f1r3fly
I got the hang of sanding the g3 down for f1r3fly g3's after the first time. It can be kind of intimidating, the way everyone says f1r3fly g3 sanding zomg, but it gets easier with experience.
Rsvp subbed in for the g3 body makes the over all mod shorter no? -

The tip? If you mean like the ink, you pull the comssa back plug, then take osme needlenose pliers and grab the ink and pull. It should come out and a bit ink thing will come out of the other side.
If you mean the plastic tip, then you cut if off wiht a knife or wire cutters or a saw.QUOTE (Kirby @ Mar 1 2010, 07:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>value of mint m&m (good color)?

You can do it that way. I think he uses the same method as the Buhryan SC yes? Add tape to an rsvp inktube put it in the comssa backplug and then have it stick out the other end into an hgg tip.

It's not really possible to not change the texture while removing the writing. to erase the writing, you have to break through a top "plasticky" part that provides the texture of a normal superpirat. why you would want to keep it, i dunno. Rubbed super pirats > regular super pirats by a lot
I usually take a saw and cut off as much of the blue part as i can. then i take a drill and drill the rest out of the superpirat body, then dump the ink. taking out the tips is self-explanatory

well, the original texture of pirat barrels is extremely slippery :/ dunno why you'd wanna keep them like that
but yeah, listen to hoiboy. he rubs/empties super pirats for me and it works nicely. he rubs the super pirat using an eraser (hard erasers that suck balls for erasing pencil are best) that is dipped in rubbing alcohol. ive heard pure acetone works very well also. ive tried nail polish remover but it doesnt work too well :/ -

It just effects the ink so the thickness of the lines you draw will be thinner/thicker, the metal tip itself is the same for both 0.3 and 0.4 ^^

the part you need to saw off has the little ridge that holds the super pirat caps on. if you tried emptying it from the front, you would get the same result

But if your worried it might break or something, you could use a screwdriver. My friend just pushed really hard against the Rsvp backcap and it punctured through and left a really cool looking hole ^^ -

Yeah that works but you really need to be careful. I highly suggest getting the right tools though. You can honestly hurt yourself or whatever your working on. I have the scars to prove it =p

My method is actually a bit safer. Buy a set of precision screw drivers, then just puncture through the back onto the a workbench or something. It's a lot safer and you can adjust size so if you want to reverse a different inktube you won't have to worry about having too big a hole.

You don't have to hit it that hard, jut hit it gently a couple times until it pops out.

Personally, considering that I often concoct bictories with random bics from teachers' desk stashes of pens, I have found that pliers and boiling water aren't very useful -.-
what I do on the fly is to hold the stic up to the light so you can see where the back plug ends, then you put that spot on the ridge of one of your molars, and give it a light nibble to break the glue. It'll make a cracking sound. after that you bite harder just below the end of the back plug and bite harder. It will bend the barrel and the edge that keeps the plug from going into the bic barrel will be exposed. i put that part in my front teeth and pull it out
the problem with this is that is leaves a couple teeth marks, which is nasty for anyone else, but if you get good at it like yours truly you'll be able to leave a single, shallow dent that isn't very noticable -

@brent
get a screw that will screw tightly into the remains of the back plug, screw it in so that the head and some of the threads still show.
then either pull really hard on it while holding the ST barrel with other hand (maybe wrap cloth/rubber band around screw head for friction) -

I kinda assumed you had multiple super tips. If you just have 1 and you ripped off all the showing part, it will be really hard. In the future, try my method its really easy.

Date: Wed, Apr 14 2010 02:30:55
first of all, you don't just pull.
grab the back plug with the pliers and DO NOT PULL. just twist the backplug around in the barrel so it turns.
If it turns, you know it's loose and you can go ahead and keep turning like you just were while pulling. It should come out easily.
If it does not turn, put it into boiling hot water since this will release the glue. Try twisting the backplug around in the barrel again. -

Hope you guys can help out.
G2's are the most stable for holding. I haven't seen any other grips that hold them as well as the G2 sections.
There really isn't any cheaper alternative asides from anyball. -

Is there a certain number of cell(s) of the Anyball grip i need to use? [For etc. Use only the first 2 cells,other cells will not work]
Or are they any other grip options?

Ok, if this is your anyball/profile grip and the ring that is bigger then the rest is on the far right: ( | | | | | |,|,| ) Use the sections with the comma inside of it... they are the thickest rings and I find they hold the signos tips the best. -

snake is correct. use the largest rings and push them in the gap using a toothpick works best

I actually find that putting the signo tips into the caps, then pushing the grips down over the tips is easy as well to put them in and make them fit. -

I'm having a large amount of trouble removing an HGG tip from a comssa cap. I've done the thing with the HGG grip and trying to unscrew it, and that worked on one of them. The other is extremely reluctant. I've gotten to the point where the thin, outer area of the cap is a little bent because I tried to pull the tip off with pliers.

Get some strong vinyl tape or duct tappe and wrap it around the tip but keep some slack so then you have quite a bit of leverage to unscrew the tip. -

or what you can do (if you dont care about scratching your tip) is bite your HGG tip, and screw it out from there

needlepoint, but that's a waste; needlepoints are barely heavier.

if you really want to make it heavier, put fishing weights under the signo tips.

Ajisai Emboss?
A RiAsON Emboss is an Emboss mod with a playcolor body.
An Ajisai Emboss is known as an Ajisai SC; I don't know how it's made. (at least I think you're talking about an ajisai SC)
as far as I can tell:
Large emboss front cap, signo tip into front cap, anyball strip around the signo in the cap (to keep it in).
emboss body, looks like there's a couple strips of ?G2? grip on the front.
Jimnie back cap, some grip into cap (hgg? no idea.) and another signo or something of that sort in the back. grip on the cap, guessing it's G2 (smooth part).
there might be something around the signo (liek a grip) in the cap to keep it from rattling.
It's not a small emboss cap in the back, emboss is a lot thicker than a supertip, and supertips just barely fit into hyperjell caps (which is bigger than Jimnie cap)

I did not really apply this to the gjh mod, but to another mp and i gotta say it works. Basically, you have to improvise with a g3 backplug in a such a way that it can reach the clicker while not moving or is not loose when you try to click.

Date: Wed, Apr 28 2010 21:14:00
for removing signo broad grip, boil some water, so it's all jumpy and shit, and then throw the body with grip in that.
This melts the glue, and makes the grip feel even nicer
then you just pull it off; put you fingernails on the bottom of the grip, so there is less friction on the body.
this works perfectly every time.QUOTE (ION @ Apr 25 2010, 11:11 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>No it doesn't, the shade of blue is different and if it were a PC2 you would be able to see the sem from the nubless cap.

If you take off the grip without cutting, you can stretch it too much. For example, it won't fit sturdy on G3 gripzone on your SEVEN mod.
I made so: cut front part in 1 mm closer to tip, then file down it until you almost file the grip, and then just bend plastic ring with tweezers. Next just take grip out of gripzone. You'll get a fully clean, virgin grip ^__^ Just a perfect way, except that it takes very much time, but if you want to make a perfect mod with perfect grips, this way is for you. -

Super tip is thicker and shorter. The comssa is too long and skinny and makes it harder for power tricks (which is one of the main reasons people use busters). ALso people like making it all white which you can't do without PDS comssa.QUOTE (Flarion @ May 2 2010, 10:13 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well, I have some mods that I bring to school, but I really want to have either a retractable or MP mod.

Make a GJH or MPMX they are both good and have sturdy mechs. For retracables I cant thik of any good ones that are easyish to make maybe a F-301X mod?
If your just wondering what mechs to use, then use champ mech or MSP's for RSVP barrels. No good retractable or MP mech for supertip. Instead, just add a rsvp inktube then when you take off whatever cap you have on it, then it will write.

Somsak can use very little grip if you want to mayb 1 cm on each side.
Then if you use 1.5 cm on each side of KT then a ringor two of sailor, it might work. You can do it but you will need to be stingy with the grip. I wouldn't recamend but it is do able.
And Somsak is a very nice mod

you can still get hggs from penwish and jetpens. Thy just aren't sold in mainstream stores in the y.s. Anymore. Replacements include new hgr tips, signo tips. These you should be able to get.

I don't know where to post this (either "what mods can i do with..." thread or here), so I just posted here to be sure.
I happen to have seen this on a local store (I was tempted to buy one, but it costs ~3-4 $) of mine and wanted to know if somebody is familiar with this pen
The pen's tip is shaped like a smaller Dr. Grip () and is quite heavy as well. As of now, there is quite of abundance in the store ( > 1). I just want to know if somebody is familiar with this pen. -

What I know from this pen is that its released long time ago, and it doesnt write good in anyway.
The mechanism also sucks as it only takes the "most ideal" writing position in consideration.

You can make a neon green Waterfall mod, but I think that the parts are pretty hard to find. And I guess you could make a light green Bellcolour Comssa, which is close enough to neon green? That's just off the top of my head though. -

No he means which parts of the anyball grips. For the first pic, I suggest going 2 from the wider side of the grip and the cutting the next two cells for this. Repeat with a fresh yellow anyball on the other side. As for the grey, you should go 1 from the wider side and cut that ring. So I would suggest a total of 10 anyabll grips for the best symmetry but you should be able to do it with around 7. -

thanks a bunch. And after doing some observing I'm guessing for the second pic you just use the 5 back rings?
-
Date: Sat, May 29 2010 01:16:30
Err those look like the wider ones also. So I suggest 2 red and 2 black and then 3 cell sections from the wide side from each of the black and 2 cell sections from the wide side for each of the red
-
Date: Sat, May 29 2010 01:21:32
Woops yea sorry, I could of written that better. What I meant was that yes you use, from the wide end, the 5 rings from there and you can use those to make that particular type (in need of a better word) of grip.

Use needlenose pliers and push them to the inside of the comssa nub. Then use a rubber band or grip and apply force to the pliers while screwing the tip off. or try scraping it out with a knife

And yes you need MP Airfits, but they are just as heavy as the ballpoint I think. Ballpoint=MP, Ballpoint>Jell, MP>Jell. So if you make a MP CYL it should actauly be heavier because of the mech on the inside, but less momentum

if you still have the body of the signo, put the screw part into the cap, screw in the tip, yank it out
may or may not work
and if you inverted the tip, thats a whole different problem
otherwise, you would need to cut it out .____. -

Generally the first option you can do is take a precision Flat-head screw driver and go through the holes next to the Comssa Nub to push it out.
Otherwise take a bbq skewer with enough tape around it to go into the bic body, Douse it in super-glue and let it sit for 10 minutes after putting it into the bic then Pull.
That should generally get it unless that bic piece is seriously STUCK.

no its a different grip. The grip is removable and can be subbed with the Dr. Grip Shaker, but they are very different.
this is the Ceter of gravity the grip is lighter, foggier, and thinner then the normal shaker. Also the Center of gravity has another colored grip under the foggy grip (but it is pretty useless.)
here is a picture of the normal shaker.
The grip is clear, heavier, and thicker.

Hi peoples, quick modification question here. I have alot of profile grips hanging around, but I want them in a different color. I was wondering if it would be a viable option to paint the grips. Like if I wanted to change the grip from like a black to a bright yellow, would it be ok if there was some kind of paint to paint on the grip without it coming off all over my hands.
Anybody know if there is such a paint(or paint marker) that would work for this job. I was thinking about drawing designs on my grips and such. Any thoughts on this?
edit: just had a thought, what about soaking the grips in something. Like some sort of dye. What would bleach do to a grip, would it turn it white? -

wouldn't painting grips harden them, and looks really messy? plus it'll probably change the grip texture. do not recommend doing it -

How to you get the clips on a RSVP (or any cap for that matter) looking like Colin's?

You sand it at an angle to get the shape you want. It's probably easier with a dremel or a similar power tool.

might not be possible but using a really small drill bit doesn't make that much damage
honestly its barely noticeable
or if you can maybe get a sunburst cap and try to pull out the ring with tweasers? -

Use a hot pin or use a small precision screw-driver to go through the top of the RSVP cap right at the indent.
If you go through the top it won't effect the weight and the ball will simply fall out. -

I just use a regular x-acto knife analogue (not so expensive as original) and a plastic card (like Visa, but not so important ^^). Firstly just saw a clip in a regular way with your saw, then put your needless plastic card under an excess of a clip and start to press down with your x-acto on excess of a clip with that angle that you want. Wiglle it a little bit from side to side while pressing.
Needless plastic card is needed for protecting your cap from an unwanted dismount of a knife (??? I mean when a knife accidentally fall down on a cap after pressing down to the last). -

use teflon tape or sticky tak, because if you use superglue, you'll probably won't be able to use that tip again =/ plus it'll weaken the plastic tip of the RSVP i believe -

Last question for the Mr. Somsak mod. Since the provided tut was for the version wherein it uses hgg grips. Now that it uses dx grips, i dunno how to cut the grips in such a way that i don't ubertape the comssa backplug and that the caps won't be wobbly. Help.

yah it works, it becomes a really really light gray. Not perfectly white. And i don't know just take some bleach and pour a little in a coffee cup or something, and submerge it until it becomes white-ish

Obviously the mechanical pencil Airfit tip. The insides are more "compacted" so that the tip can allow lead to be protruded out. When I mean compacted, I mean more metal to fill the tip's inners. Whereas in the ball point Airfit, there is less metal inside so that the ink tube tip would be able to come out and write. Lead is smaller than the ink tube tip. This is alike Dr Grip mechanical pencil tips and pen tips. Same scenario. -

so i've been screwing around, and i've come up with a mod that's pretty good so far, but i only have the front done. the mod is red and white themed, (still looking for an insert for the RSVP barrel) and i need to balance out the back with about as much weight as a Dr. grip tip (mp one) that won't be ugly, because i have already tried multiple things. I can get dr. grip COG tips, RSVP caps, bics, and i also have a white bic round stic cap. i used the other one on the front of the mod and was wondering if one could be used on the back as well. I can get ahold of most commonly available American pens, and shouldn't have a problem with somewhat difficult modifications. help?

1.) RSVP Mods generally aren't meant to be that heavy.
2.) The body and cap weighting proportions compared to the front weight are insanely difficult to balance since the Weight points are at the VERY FRONT, but near the bottom of the cap.
3.) You'd have to use a different cap that allows for end tip weighting (Like Hyperjell, old RSVP RT caps, G3) with w/e type of tip-stacking you'd like to use.
4.) RSVP Caps can only fit 2 HGG tips into the cap with the full RSVP grip inside to remain visually intact. The rest of the tips out there only fit 1/2 way into the cap.
