============================ [B]Common Questions and Answers:[/B] ============================ [SPOILER="Common Asked Questions"]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.
-
[*] Wire cutters
[*] X-acto knife
[*] Hacksaw
-
[*] 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)
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*] 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.
-
[*]Shove a bit of paper into the lighter side until it all balances out.
-
[*]Use an eraser to rub off the writing. Silver writing (Fine line) comes off more easily than Gold writing (Medium line).
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*]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.
-
[*]Slide something underneath the grip
-
[*]Read this UCPSB thread
-
[*]Wrap clear tape around the barrel underneath the cap.
-
[*]Acetone
[*]Grab a sticker and use it to pull the glue off.
-
[*]Wrap clear tape around the nub before screwing on the tip.
[*]See this thread

The only way I know of is to sew through it unfortunately. The bands are kind of a one-life time sort of thing. -

Try maybe just a little bit of super glue. It should be a pretty strong hold. Or, like iMatt said, try sewing it. -

How do I print out an insert in different "DPI" What is DPI and how do I print out my insert the right size (whenever I use windows default image printer it makes it like "letter" or "thumbnail" or "fullpage")
-
Date: Thu, Jun 24 2010 19:42:48
You can print in DPI via photoshop. DPI = Dots Per Inches. You can print it out the correct size, by pasting it into MS Word -> Right Click -> Size -> (uncheck 'lock aspect ratio') -> set the height and width. Now print and it will be exactly correct

i like looks for f1r3fly g3 mod but i really dun lile how any g3 mods spin cuz they tend to be tip stavked single sided mods @psfreak: with ur bare hands. nah jkjk you can use scissors but you probably wont get a clean straight cut. imo a razor blade is still the best option. @scaringchildren: i actually prefer razor blades over xacto blades for cutting grips into sections but yeah xactos are very useful

crackerjack take your grip and flatten it out with something hevy like a book. lay it on tour grip except thr area you want to cut. take a razor blade and cut straight down while hold the uncovered part of the grip down with you free hand. or option two take an xacto knife and put the grip on a barrel and cut all the way around. no scissors

You can use a screwdriver to loosen it. A big one, though. Put it in the backplug and twist it so it loosens. -

just take the backplug out and the use the plier to rip off the felt tip from the frobt separating it from the st body. then the inside ink thing should fall out

how the hell do you get the grips off of pilot patints? the ones I got from pw the grips are literally glued to the barrel. I tried cutting off and peelibg a small section and Some of the grip is glued so firmly that I can't even pull it off. I've tried to breakthe glue with a paperclipbut the gripis very elastic and a few times the paperclip just ran and stabbed the grip
-
Date: Fri, Jul 2 2010 03:56:56
maybe try dropping the whole thing in a nail polish remover bottle. It may dissolve the glue, thus making the grip way easier to slide off.Otherwise, just try the paperclip but slowly and more carefully.
-
Date: Fri, Jul 2 2010 04:21:50
twist the grip till the glue breaks

What's the best way to remove the clip from a Jimnie cap?
-
Date: Sun, Jul 4 2010 01:47:43
Yurchik it's just glow in the dark paper/stickers. I don't know the name but I'm sure you could find some at craft stores. Sko: I dunno if you're talking about the japanese jimnie used in Seven G3 mods or the American Hyperjell. But basically the method is the same. Jamnee (sorry for the spelling): Carefully bend back the clip like you are breaking off an rsvp clip from an mx. Then take a pair of wire cutters and slide them so that the blades are in between the clip and cap. Squeeze the handles carefully and you should be able to cut the clip off. Then sand whatever is left down with a file or sandpaper. American Hyperjell: Remove the colored thingy from the clip. Again bend the clip back and then take your wire cutters and cut the clip off and sand the leftovers. You can use a hacksaw instead too.

-
Date: Sun, Jul 4 2010 02:33:11
Marvies in general are considered rare because they are out of production even thought they are easier to obtain in Japan than other countries. I think those colors you have are around the same rarity but I think whites are pretty rare

As in that code thing near the bacl of the body? I would say use an xacto knife to cut any of the excess plastic above the level of the rest of the supertip body away. Then use Guitrum's paper method to even it out a bit more

Doesn't this mean that if you drop it too much, you're screwed? -

What do you mean. Of course if you drop it right on the tip/mech part a bunch of times it will eventually break or something. But it's not like you'll be dropping it the same way sometimes it'll land on the barrel or maybe the cap or maybe the grip.

i made it when i was a beginner its not the best of mods now, but as a beginner, it was pretty decent there are better mods to make with a g2 and hgg though, and now that you can get sunbursts in australia, i would say go for an rsvp mx instead but its definitely not the worst mod you could make *cough*bustercyl*cough* -

take a paperclip and heat it on a flame stove. then stick it in the top of the rsvp cap to make a hole but dun touch the ball itself yet. cool thenpaperclip off and push the ball out by sticking the paperclip through the hole. its actually not very noticeable imo

i have tryed: eraser, nail polish remover (acetone), and rubbing it off with paper. none of these did anything to the pink part. then i tryed scratching it and it did come off easy but it also damaged the body because its being scratched... its some sort of print that you can feel the borders with your nail barely this is obviously some strong ass print.. and i need to find a way to get it off!!! please help and tell me how i could possibly clean this barrel!

First of all post in the Quick Modificationa thread next time. Everyone has different learning rates and Each person invests a different amount of time into psing. Personally I think being "behind" is something you should decide. Now about the MX. If you're talking about the backcap you can try supergluing it together or just buying another rsvp.

yea your behind with learning but its true everyone learns at there own pace, but i learned the fundamentals in one day and the revs in like a week and recently started making combos and ive been spinning for like 2 1/2 months and i dont spin much.... especially since im on vacation in mah birthplace australia :D(had to pack and stuff took up alot of time) , most ppl dont just get it like that but if you cant get it id give up (not to put u down) but if u just charge and stuff during class time then XD go ahead, btw im 13 too and i spin Buster CYL and Dr KT (CT technically cuz its a color twin not a KeiTyo body) but if a MX is too big for your hands then???? and a tip if you want to spin get "so pro" and spin with combos and do continuous spinning then learn the fingerpass then master it, if you cant pass fluently then your spinning will fail and look very .... just not smooth and novice xD and just crack the cap open get the grip out (there a pain in the ass to get off the rsvp) and get a new cap and put the grip in, walah solved :3

@xspin. yes for the most part but the girp may be slightly "Brighter" than the cap. Dr.KT is fairly easy to make if you have a nice razor or craft skizors. if you wanna just mash it together it's even easier but the grips won't be that clean.
-
Date: Tue, Jul 27 2010 19:17:36
FireFang: definitely. The only way it could be remotely hard is if you don't have a razor blade to cut grips. If you don't have pliers, use scissors to pull out the ink nib things, and then pull the backplug out with a grip to empty out the ink ;)

[QUOTE=Jerloew wrote: i'd been reading it over and over again, but i cant decide witch to mod and make cause its hard to really know what's good and what's not good from reading that.. so id really need help from a advanced spinner?
I apologize, I'm still trying to find time to finish the Starters Guide article with pictures and links. Honestly though we can't recommend you a pen that you guaranteed will like. Every person has a different taste in weight/momentum/body type etc. What I normally recommend for beginners is this: 1.) RSVP MX with a Signo tip instead of the HGG tip. Most spinners find this more preferable when getting the hang of a pen's momentum. 2.) Metallic Comssa. Insanely simple to mod and cheap. (Less than $4.00 on penwish). It's a great mod to get accustomed to double sided mods and the different type of momentum. 3.) A round unsharpened #2 Pencil with an eraser on each end. The momentum is great for learning thumb around. -

You need two (2) Pilot g2 and one (1) Hi-tec C Disassemble both of the g2's Remove the g2 grip from one of the g2's Remove the ENTIRE clip part and remove the clicking mechanism from the g2's (ONLY REMOVE THE CLICKING MECHANISM FROM ONE OF THE G2'S) Get the front of ONE of the g2's, remove the spring,and cut off the tip of the front body off Attach the HI-TEC C tip to the remaining portion of the front g2 (the one you cut the tip from) and then add (g2) grips Insert the g2 spring back into the completed front section Get the back of ONE of the g2's and cut the part that the clip was (on) off Get the front part from the other g2 and cut 2cm from the middle of it Use this to connect your cut g2 body and your uncut g2 body (glue is used) Get one of the g2 inktubes and empty all the ink out, then cut 7cm from the front of it Get the other g2 inktube and remove the backplug from it Get both inktubes and place them with the writting part facing away from each other, this is how they will be placed in the pen (i'm not sure if they get tapped together or not) Place the inktubes in the pen with the empty one going on the end where the clicking mechanism and the writing end going in the front of the pen Attach the gripped and tipped front part you made to the front of the mod Add (g2) grips to the back of the mod The mod is now complete I'm not 100% sure if this is correct but I did my best.

how do you got a stuck hgg tip out froma rsvp cap?
-
Date: Fri, Aug 6 2010 21:18:06
get an hgg body, and sand it down aaaaallll the way until it slides in and out freely in the rsvp cap screw the hgg body into the stuck tip, and just keep twisting until it comes out. ..or you can completely obliterate your cap

is there a tutorial for grip cutting eg, cutting patterns into an ayatori, not cutting grips in half etc. Ive thought about it and i dont really think its done with a razor.
-
Date: Sat, Aug 7 2010 12:10:03
@pred: Usually done with a X-Acto knife if you're doing fancy cuts. Not sure about tutorials. Anybody recommend making an Any-X? I personally think the aesthetics are kind of neat. I've heard some things about the stability of the mod though, so I'm not sure yet. Also, no idea how it spins.

I dont particularly like my any-x mods as an idea, using the spare anyball parts is nice, but it doesn't spin that well i dont think imo that it justifies the hgg tip it spins nearly as good with a plastic tip though -

HGG tip fits right onto the nub of the comssa cap. -

Couldn't find the answer via google or search. Exactly how much weight added to the tip does it take to balance an RSVP MX?
-
Date: Tue, Aug 10 2010 07:34:04
Not sure how you would answer that question, let alone google search it... I would say that 2/3 HGG tips is fairly close to being balanced (basing this off of an MX^2)

Jan: Actaully there are three types of airfits; jell ballpoint and mp. Jell is lighter then dr. grip and ballpoint and mp are slightly heavier. So Airfit ballpoint and mp work as subs for dr. grip tip. Also silicone gel pens have heavy tips although slightly lighter then dr. grip. the SX mod usees them and you can get them at daiso. Yurchik: At http://modrod.biz/ Richard: There are two versions, and no official tutorial. Although I know them both. Version one Take one super pirat with caps. Then add gripmatic tip and cover with part of hgg grip. Version 2 is super pirat body (no caps) then hgg tip and gripmatic tip covered by part of hgg grip on top. (THIS IS BASED OFF MY KNOWLEDGE AND MAY NOT BE 100% CORRECT) I hope this helped guys. EDIT: Also jan the best sub for dr. grip is clear tornado or airfit grip. Or just the american version of dr grip.

fireeeeeee! burn those 2 pieces of plastic that connect the clip to the cap, then take the clip off, then burn the rest of the plastic leftover if needed and use a blade to scrape the now hot, soft plastic to remove it -

Bam: the original is unreleased, search the show off your inserts thread to find one you like Yurchik: PM him about it. You be able to get them even though it says "out of stock" Colin: Maybe the green is like a under coat of paint, and the gold is cheezy suck ass paint. Firefang: The best mod with american parts is a Dr. ST with american parts. This is my opinion. With the CT it would work, but I reccomend just doing it the original way xSpin: No, the pastel is lighter, and the normal is slightly different.

how do you remove the clicker on a g2 like this
-
Date: Sat, Aug 14 2010 03:10:02
If you mean the clip: Wrap tape or a rubberband around it, pull hard. If you mean the actual clicker: Take the inktube out and just shove it down on the top of the clicker, you should be able to force it out. After that, you cut it with a saw of some sort. What's the easiest/best way to modify a GJH so that you can just press the cap for the lead to come out? Edit: I think I cut the front part of my G3 too short ;-;. Now the HGG grip covers a large amount of the tip lolol

Firefang check the wiki or the v3 approved section. Or google "upsb dr. st"... Scaring: Here's what I did. I cut off the front of the jedo and superglued it to the front og the g3. then I ran the entire jedo mech through the g3 body. the clicker poked out of the back of the barrel so you can add a few rings of anyball to the g3 cap and shorten the g3 grip and have the anyball surround the clicker. then add a bit of tape to the g3 body and do the rest of the mod according to the tutorial.

like i said, the lighter method. turn your lighter on high, and then wave it around the ink/metal tip. Only use the orange flame, not the blue. It'll melt if done so -

Date: Thu, Aug 26 2010 02:53:00
1) use paper rubbing method or eraser or acetone/nail polish remover. 2) When you cut, use a razor blade and push straight down on sectionless grips. For grips eith sections like anyballs, take your blade and stick the grip in a spare barrel that u dun mind scratching. Then just follow the section line aroubd while hold and slicing with the blade
-
Date: Thu, Aug 26 2010 02:54:29
1. There are 2 ways to get rid of text/designs on bodies. 1 way is to use guitrum's rubbing method. take an old body like a bic body or something doesnt matter and put it in paper, take the body in the paper and start rubbing the text off the body that way. Another, simpler way but may not work for all bodies would be to use acetone/nail polish remover on some paper towels or something and rub all the ink/designs off the body. 2.

@Relay you cant really do that just like you cant make the hyperjell circular, the jimnie can do that because the clip is connected by 2 little plastic nubs that connect to the cap, so you can easily burn those off and use a knife to make it smooth, but the rsvp clip is different :/ no way to completely remove it really

1) not sure what you're asking 2) however much you want. it's personal preference 3) the same way you put it in an rsvp barrel? roll it up and slide it in 4) I had problems with this too. basically I just dropped the gm tip in, pushed in the grips, and pushed the g3 tip into the grip so it was out of view with the super pirat body. But od course this is made ibcorrectly but U was never sure how to push it in with gm tip in the grip

lol? I'm notsure what you're asking means you should probably tell me more...about wht you're asking. You mean insert dimensions? and yes you can take the back plug out. take a chopstick and unscrew the tip and stick the chopstick in the hole and push hard. the thing will pop out. And you act like I havent told you anything. I KNOW there's a paper insert. Give some thanks for once?

. LOOK IT UP YOU LAZY BITCH AND STOP TRYING TO BOOST YOUR POST COUNT. OR JUST CUT OUT THE FUCKING INSERT AT ANYSIZE, PUT IT NEXT TO THE BODY, CUT IT TO (RESIZE) THAT LENGTH AND FIGURE OUT THE WITH. You've spammed so much today.

for some reason, my minwoo mod is lop-sidded and the weigth is not evenly balanced. The side with the cap is much lighter than the front. Is this how its supposed to be? my cap has the GM tip, GM grip, and white insert..... (?)

what's the diff between the jap dr. grip mp tip and the american dr. grip mp tip? and how come people dont like the american grip either? i find them pretty useful...
-
Date: Wed, Sep 1 2010 17:56:06
1) The jap dr grip tip is heavier yet slimmer than the American dr grip tip. 2) The jap dr grip grip is longer than the american mp grip but same length as the neon grip. However the american grips are all cloudy and the jap grips are clear so people like the jap ones more aesthetically. Also the jap dr grip has been distcontinued (even thought they made a ton of them so you might be able to snag some in Japan) so that raises their demand. 3) Finally the Dr. KT was originally made with jap dr grip tips I think. So people want to model their kts after that and any kt that uses american tips is deemed a slight variation.

Well, I was making a subbed SEVEN G3 with an RSVP cap, and I decided to cut the clip (wtf). Later, i realized i cut a little bit too much. How do you repair a hole in a such a way that it is invisible to the naked eye? I know it wouldn't be see in spinning, but it would look ugly up close.

Regular clear rsvps and the tinted ones are the same. Sunbursts are different i think in length or something and same with rsvp gel.

For an RSVP MX, do you have to use the RSVP BK90? Or can you use any RSVP?

-
Date: Sat, Sep 4 2010 01:00:07
wrap thr insert really tightly and make sure that it's not too long or it will make the grip insert package too thick and thus cause crumpling. I dunno if I'm right about this but i think the flat side of the grip is thicker than the rounded edged side. So try pushing it in rounded edge firt into the cap

No, because less weight is concentrated at the ends of the pen and more weight is concentrated in the middle. -

Hello Does someone know which kind of Dr. Grips were used to make this Dr. M&M. I saw them already before on a Makin KT, which was made by a japanese guy (an the KT had clear grips). The Tips seem to be longer and slimer than normal Dr. Grip Shaker Tips (which are selled on Penwish.com) and they don't have these little tips, that the mechanical pencils have. I found a Dr. Grip, which's tip has pretty the same shape but it is a MP, and I don't think the tips of the Dr. M&M were filed down, because it's looks to perfect. Can someone help? greets MM

what are the pros and cons of RSVP MX? and where can I find a tutorial for a comssa mod or comssa metallic mod?
-
Date: Mon, Sep 6 2010 13:09:38
RSVP MX: It's easy to make and very cheap (needs only 2 pens). Imo looks cool and like a normal pen. You can make a lot of variation, because of a lot of different HGG colors and 6 different lines of RSVPs. And you can put inserts in barell and cap. (Depending on where you live it is quite easy to get) For the cons: COSS =/= COG. It has a quite hard and plain surface. For example after a shower it's harder to spin with because of the washed hands it is slippier. Compared to the pen mods which are popular at the moment it is very light hand has less momentum. greets MM

im not sure about 2) but for 1), it's an mx variation if u use other parts and an rsvpv1 or v2 variation if u exclude the hgg stuff conpletely and add nothing in its place
-
Date: Mon, Sep 6 2010 22:47:14
@Darealone , if you need something in pixels, and the dimensions are in centimeters, its as simple as going to google and typing "convert cm to pixel" , type in the cm dimension, and there you have the pixel dimension. if i remember correctly the dimensions are 2.81 x 8.8 cm so in this case it would be 106.2 x 332.5 in pixel dimensions

I put a little bit of toothpick tightly on the open end. I did this with rsvp inktubes on my MXs, and so far it's fine.
-
Date: Wed, Sep 8 2010 12:46:55
rsvp inks don't tent to spill. actually putting tooth pic or filling the empty side is one of the worst things you can do. Ink is a liquid and needs room to expand or to contract based on temperature and pressure. If you plug one end and you are in an environment that makes ink expand it will leak more from the front. There is really nothing u can do short of sealing the front and back but that will prevent ink from moving which is another problem. in conclusion, ink will leak and will leak more if you spin. just the reality of psing

I didn't think you needed pics... and be specific. Coloumb has more than 1 mod. Assuming you want the one for the G3 mod (reworded Tek's): "This mod is really really simple. Materials: -plastic G3 (tip, body) -hgg (tip and grip) -1 Signo tip and grip -1 Hi-tec tip -hyper gel cap and grip steps: 1- Take apart the g3 and shave off the nub and squares. Only leave the back cap in the body. 2- Cut 0.5 cm of the signo grip and put it on the G3 front. 3- Cut 0.9 cm of the hyper gel grip and put it next to the signo grip from step 2 4- now get the plastic g3 tip and screw it back on to the body 5- get he hgg grip and put it above the hyper gel grip in step 3 6- stick the signo tip inside the hgg grip on top of the plastic G3 tip 7- then stick the hi-tec tip on top of the signo tip (note (tipstack): G3 tip>signo>hi tec) 8- get the left over hyper gel grip in step 3 and cut .5 cm off from it 9- stick the hgg tip in the hyperjell grip so it sticks out and push that "package" into the hyper gel cap 10- then take .5 cm of the left over signo grip in step 2 and put it in the cap following the package 12- then stick the .5 cm hyper gel in stage 8 in the cap following the signo grip 13- now put some electric tape around the end of the g3 body and put on the cap 14- then say woot tek is king bluheijiefje a;nnveia;rjei (note: this step is not necessary)" Done.

If you want to keep the grip clean, break off the front of the hgg thing and slide it off. You'll need to try a lot to break thr glud between the body and grip. If you decide not to do that, just use ykur fingernails but you carry the risk of marks on your grip

Only problem with spoko is that if you're spinning while doing officework or homework, the grip get's marked really easily by pencil lead. Like if you write something on a piece of paper and you drop the grip on your writing, you get this weird mark on the grip that is quite annoying to wash out.

-
Date: Thu, Sep 23 2010 04:39:07
yeah but that only helps you with infinity. It will be unbalanced and will help you learn the trick but not with combos where you might want to use tricks other than the infinity. Also, don't you want things like infinity ext, double infinity, triple infinity, infinity rev, and etc. before you even think about constructing combos?

I would like to know how I can add weight to the front of an MX unnoticeably (like no extra tip / anything obvioulsy different). I just want it a bit more center baleneced as this one is quite a bit off
-
Date: Fri, Sep 24 2010 08:44:06
You can add some blu-tack into the hgg tip to balance it out more Add tape on the front of the rsvp where the hgg is placed. I use add one of the rubber stops in a sunburst and then add it into the hgg tip, not COP=COG but it helps a bit :)
-
Date: Fri, Sep 24 2010 08:49:00
You could tape the open end of the inktube.

Whenever I drop my mod while penspinning, the metal tips get loose from the impact. The tips are held by grips only. What could I do to make them secure?

Wrap electrical tape or scotch tape around them and slide the grips over the tape

-

@Jan 1. its not a sticker. 2. nail polish remover is basically 100% acetone, and is what most people use to remove the stuff from the pirat bodies, which works just as well on cartoon comssas.

If you get the title play-on-words, cool. If not, cool. So, I recently acquired a neon green waterfall. On a scale of 1 to awesome, it's awesome. However, the body the guy used was the green reynolds 094 body, not the true body for the mod which is the light/neon green bellcolor body. I want the real body if possible. Anyone have this? I don't want the caps, just the body, but idunno how rare or expensive that is. PLEASE if you have one you might trade or sell, or you know someone who does, PM me about it or something. As this is really all I have left to trade for until I consider my pen collection/mod list complete (for now ;D), I felt it was appropriate to separate this from my (dead) trade thread. If not, I guess merge em? iono.

-
Date: Tue, Sep 28 2010 04:09:17
If I am correct, pencil airfit tips way the least. From heaviest to lightest it's ballpoint, jell, pencil, if I'm not mistaken. Note: Pencil airfits can have the small metal pencil piece pushed out with another lead pencil.
-
Date: Tue, Sep 28 2010 04:18:02
Pencil/Mp Airfits weight the most --" Get your facts straight. They are heavier because the lead inktube is very small and doesn't require a lot of space, therefore there is more metal. Mp > Ballpoint > Jell
-
Date: Tue, Sep 28 2010 04:29:20
Jell is the lightest I know for sure. Does anyone know how the jell tips compare to other tips? I heard they are like jap dr grip tips but I just want to confirm

@RichardX, you only use 1 Signo DX grip. 2/3 of the grip is on the "writable side" and 1/3 on the backplug side. You may have "uber tape" the backplug for it to fit to the G3 cap. and yes, Signo DX tips = Regular Signo Tips (gripless)

@LunarEssence you could, but you would have to change the amount of tape or whatever to get the signo to fit on the piece to make it stay in the g2 barrel, and it would also throw off the balance/momentum, but try it out and see

does this usually happen? (the red one)
the front grip, between the clear and coloured grip, gets oily
i'm not sure how it got there, but the outside of the clear grip is perfectly dry/normal
i have wiped everything off with a tissue, but i did that before and i think it came back -
Date: Sun, Oct 3 2010 03:44:13
Try taking it apart. Make sure you dry the part under the inner grip. Wash and dry the grips. Washing the barrel is also a smart idea. Dry everything and see if it's still there.

If you're looking to make a Pirat KS, then you can use signo tips instead of KS tips. But for other things I'm not sure. @Morpheus Minwoo SC mod? If so, then it won't be able to retract because it uses an dr grip mp tip. Unless you drill a giant hole or something. -

@Priapism m&m = miffy and melanie(rare marker expensive) CT = color twin (can get on penwish and is found in some asian country forget which one :p) AC = art color (also found in asia i think, dont know which country(s) KT = KeiTyo/Keicho (found in asia idk which country(s) again) All of these can be found on penwish, but these bodies aren't necessary, I'm sure you can use a crayola supertip body and it will work just as well for the mod, since they all have very very similar dimensions
-
Date: Thu, Oct 7 2010 21:01:56
excellent, i get choices
-
Date: Thu, Oct 7 2010 22:51:10
Be careful, if it's your first mod you probably want something lighter than a G2-CTE. A bictory with tips and grips makes a good starter pen that isn't too heavy so you don't get used to spinning heavy mods.
-
Date: Fri, Oct 8 2010 04:21:14
Well, i have actually done a bictory, but it seems way too light. I usually have a RSVP in my pocket, so i spin it. From what i understand rsvps are a relatively heavy pen, so weight dosent really seem like a problem. like i said i have done a bictory and messed around with some single sided non retractable mods, but i want one that i can write with, b/c thats what i do the most pen spinning (note taking, math HW, ect). I think i may try a g2-cte first though, thx for the advice.
-
Date: Fri, Oct 8 2010 05:38:34
You can try adding grips and tips or weights to your bictory to make it heavier

All the Bic Round stics have the same barrel, its just that some of the colours/textures are different. The Bic piece fits into a supertip, not a superpirat If the bic piece still doesn't hold the two supertips together, add a bit of tape the the bic piece to thicken it.

No, I really advise against a g2-cte, it's REALLY heavy and it's fairly hard to mod (lots of sanding involved, barrel cuts (a lot), the most infuriating grip ever). You don't want to start with too heavy of a mod, and the g2-cte is around the weight of a dr.kt. -

How do you remove the inktube from a marker, like a super tip?

I don't really want to waste a marker because I messed up pulling the tube out Thanks!

No. American MP Dr. Grip is different from the gel ink version of it which is different from Dr. Grip Neon which is different from Dr. Grip COG which has both a BP and MP version -

Is there a way to put an insert inside the cap for an RSVP MX? I tried wrapping the insert around the grip but it got crumpled.

Use a thinner grip like a G3 grip. That may change the momentum though
-
Date: Wed, Oct 13 2010 21:55:36
You wont be able to get it farther than that like thing in cap for an ordinary mx. Yknow that think that clicks onto the front of the rsvp when you want to cap the pen

how to empty a super lavable body???
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 01:37:33
I did look at both, but like I said, I couldn't follow the newer one. From what I could see, it looked as if there was a change in procedure, but maybe I was just confused. Thanks though.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 01:43:45
Yeah there IS a change in procedure. The tuts are obviously different because they result in different mods. How about you tell us at which part of the tutorial you're having trouble? or just ask guitrum himself by pm.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 02:11:08
Mostly just the part... about near the beginning, where you cut off the ridges on the clicker part, and then tape it. That's where I see the procedure seems to change, but not really sure. because the pic for the old tut looks different from what he's doing at the same part in the new one. I think that's pretty much the only part. I can't really see how to tape the part so it fits in the front of the G2 And no offense, but I pretty much was asking what the change in procedure was, besides the fact that it looks nicer.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 02:47:39
Change in procedure? I think we're thinking about different things. I think you're talking about the change from the old tut to the new tut. Is that right? I'm not too sure but I think what you do is cut the g2 clicker into 2 pieces, take the top piece and stick it onto the other part of the clicker (the one that is not circular) and then tape it all together and also tape the nub on the second mech so that the other piece is firm planted on top. The screw on the signo tip and cut away excess tape.
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 03:04:50
Hmm we might be thinking different things. Yeah, my point is that if there is a new tut, I assume he changed something, maybe not. I was wondering if using the old one had more downsides, or if the new one had some new helpful points. I guess I was a bit confusing. Okay I just watched and the part was at :38, the part you just described. I think I just didn't really get the cutting off excess part. Maybe I'll PM him though, just to clarify some details. Thanks!
-
Date: Thu, Oct 14 2010 03:24:15
Yeah. I'm 99.99% sure that there's something different between the two tuts but I haven't really gone into detail and compared them.

Date: Sun, Oct 17 2010 03:44:51
I know Bubblez or Bubbles has a tutorial on an led mx that he showed me. I don't have the link so pm him and ask him. As for the grip, either use your fingernails (but this method leaves some marks in the grip) to push it off the barrel or crack the front of the barrel so that there is nothing obstructing the grip from sliding off. In otherwords cut off the front nub area.

is it possible to fit comssa caps onto reynold 094 bodies? also, why might one use a crayola ST body instead of a super pirat?
-
Date: Sun, Oct 17 2010 17:54:53
@Jan People may use ST bodies because they like the thickness of it OR they cannot get super pirat bodies. They are thicker and may not be used for objects such as reynold caps. Super pirat bodies have a better feel and texture to them and it is also thinner. PERSONAL REFERENCE

Date: Sun, Oct 17 2010 19:40:54
The old ones aren't. And also the super pirat body gets dirty as fuck with grey gunk. The stuff on mine won't come off for whatever reason. And also, you can just insert a comssa backplug and add tape around that to hold a comssa cap

Date: Thu, Oct 21 2010 21:37:01
@ Yamateh The grip is useless. It's too much of a pain to get off so everybody usually just uses an x-acto knife to cut the grip off. Unless you really want the grip with i dont recommend.
-
Date: Fri, Oct 22 2010 12:29:24
i think you need the g3 grip for a key3 (not that it can't be subbed pretty easily) but i did it once, the tip is to soak it in hot water, so a) the grip expands and b) the gluey stuff comes off that holds the grip to the barrel then you use ur nails to peel a bit of the grip on both ends, soak it again, then brute force if you only need it for the key3, i'm pretty sure if you cut above the sqaure dots, slice the part of the grip with the holes apart, then you can slide off the top part off (relatively, compared to full grip) easily

That's a hard one. You can try scratching it off with your fingernails or rubbing it off with soap and water or using paper method. Tbh I don't know which method works the best. You can also try scratching with a knife but that's kinda risky if you don't want to kill your barrel

Noticed this, Normal colored hgg's, like Black, red, blue, green orange etc have a certain texture on the inside of the grip and you can just pull it off, while the other colors such as pastel/metallic etc are like glued onto the body and you just have the break the seal.
-

Wow wtf. I find that all HGG grips are extremely hard to pull off. I just crack the front, take a towel, and use it as traction to help me pull the grip off. I'm afraid of poking or ripping the grip with the paperclip method :/

-
Date: Mon, Oct 25 2010 06:38:07
The gap is because your hgg is the newer version, its shorter. LOL jks The sunburst barrel is shorter than the rsvp barrel so its got an extra 3/4mm of the plastic tip on the front. Just stretch your hgg grip or you gotta add TWO hgg/rsvp rings for the hgg to reach the hgg tip.

You can also try anyball rings

Grab the grip by both ends, and stretch it streniously, as if masturbating. I dunno, just quoting iMatt xD But on the serious side, you have to stretch the hgg grip -

@Holypie they are made by the same company, and are exactly identical except for the fact that the jimnie has the little horseshoe shaped color thing at the top, and the clip is not attached to the top of the cap so it's completely removeable while hypercap is the same way except the top is just normal and the clip is attached to the top of the cap similar to an rsvp cap and cant come all the way off Jimnie: http://penwish.com/product_info.php?products_id=1065 hyperjell:http://penwish.com/product_info.php?products_id=838

How do I empty a G2 barrel?<------------ that should be G2 inktube [list=1] [*] 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. [/list]

-

SC is an abbreviation for "single capped" and DC is an abbrevation for "double capped". So a SC mod is basically a single capped mod (like the RSVP MX) and a DC mod is a double capped mod (like the comssa)

But even it should be acknowledged that not every mod that has sc in its name is really sc. Like the Minwoo SC mod actually uses a comssa cap AND a G3 cap. Therefore single sided and sc and double sided and dc are often confused.

hello, Im an absolute newbie (started PS 2 days ago) and I wanted to make myself a pen (so far Im using unsharpened pencil with a cap on each side), so I went to some paper stores today and bought something like this
Can you tell me what could I make from this? There are just so many mods and I dont really know what should I pick (or what can I make with these). Btw I have like 12 of the topmost gel pens.
Thanks for any advice -
Date: Thu, Nov 4 2010 21:51:10
@manwe Hmm.... this is what i would do. This is me, you dont have to do this but... I would unscrew the tips of the top two mods and leave them to the side. I would then pull off the grips either off of the bumpy grip pair or flat grip pair. I would then put the grip on the very bottom pen (leaving the caps on) If they dont fit snug, apply tape to the barrel. Once your grips are on i would put those tips from the top two pens into the grips.
-
Date: Thu, Nov 4 2010 22:46:27
so this is the result (compared to my imba pencil)... the length is just ok, but it seems too light for me...
btw putting the grips on the pen was really hard :D -
Date: Thu, Nov 4 2010 22:48:09
Use tape or different weights to make them more heavy if they're too light for you

Date: Fri, Nov 5 2010 11:51:32
Are the tips from the gel pens metal? If not you should find some that are so you can make it a decent weight.

yea they are metal but just too light... ill try to figure out it somehow... btw when I get off the original colors from the pen, how can I "paint" it? I mean the barrel... I know how to put the insert into a see-throught barrel, but I dont know what can I do with this white barrel

Dont try to paintthe barrel with paint lol. You cando an outsert on it. basically its an insert only on the outside of the barrel using packaging tape

so I print an insert for myself, stick it to barrel and tape it with a see-thru tape, right?

yes, if you're wanting an outsert. For a clear body, you print the insert, then roll it up and stick it inside the barrel.

The V1 just reverses the inktube to spare your hands from getting really messy. Also, does anyone know how to keep Dr Grip grips clean? They always get REALLY dusty REALLY fast.

-

@Wonder I doubt you can do anything about the dr. grip grip. Soap and water won't fix everything. It's just like how some people's dr. grip grips turn pink. They cant change it back. You can try, I don't think anything horrid can come of it. If anything, it might make it cloudier if you leave it in bleach.

How come some people just use the tip and not the grip?
-
Date: Sun, Nov 7 2010 23:53:56
I guess because people just don't like how the grip looks. I mean some mods use it like Mesi G3 but it's not as widely used as a grip like HGG. The tips, however, are used in a lot of popular mods like EP comssa, Waterfall, Emboss Mod, etc.

How do you clear out a super pirat? Ink and everything. Thanks.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 01:21:56
Pull the tips of the ink out with pliers or scissors. Then cut the blue end of the super pirat off. start shaving the inside but make sure to keep the white side facing down into a sink or a trashcan so the ink doesn't spill all over your hands. once the hole is big enough (use scissors or a knife btw), either pull or push the rest of the ink on the inside out with tweezers or pliers or a chopstick. As for the body, either you can rub that all off (but this is the more tedious and time consuming way) or use acetone or nail polish remover to remove the text.

what nacho said, but its much easier to drill the back out rather than to shave it
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 02:18:17
One thing that I found helpful was to use multiple drill bits of increasing size, so there isn't as much resistance and it's a lot easier. I think the largest size you'll need is 5/16 inches, but I'm not positive so you should check.

Hi, I recently just bought a Buster CYL mod pen from penwish.com as my first spinning pen and I like it a lot. The only problem with it thati have is that about 80% of the time that im spinning my pen is when i have a piece of paper in front of me when im supposed to be writing something and it feels stupid to have to switch hands from my buster cyl to a normal pen. Because of this i really want to be able to write with it but i am not an experienced pen modder. Is there an easy way that i can accomplish this?
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 19:21:53
easy, take the comssa plug out and put in a rsvp inktub in to the plug with some tape wrapped around and then put the plug back in with the rsvp ink tube, the tip should come out in the front
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 19:36:24
Okay thanks, I'll try that.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 20:30:34
Use bic stick inktube. U can stick it where the supertip inktube was, it should fit. Thats it, still scuks makes it even heavier...use a freaking ballpoint pen for writing its not that hard to carry one:D
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 20:36:25
hmm i tried that just now because i have bic pens lying around my house, but there is a little plastic wall inside of the cap blocking the way for a tube of ink to fit through to poke out of the tip edit: do i have to take the grips off and everything?
-
Date: Tue, Nov 9 2010 20:51:17
@spencen16 have the inktube stick out of the supertip tip, and then take the cap off to write is what we are trying to tell you

ohhh okay that makes a lot more sense, thanks.

i use hgg or sunburst ink. cut off small tip of super tip and slowly make the hole so it's just big enough for ink to fit (tight) then push ink in and done. that has worked well for me in past.
-
Date: Wed, Nov 10 2010 02:01:47
i find that gel ink just gets messed up in a pen mod the constant spinning makes the ink go to the bottom of the ink tube and (if its an open end like in a mx) it spills out, or atleast make it unwritable bic round stic is the best solution imo
-
Date: Wed, Nov 10 2010 02:09:04
Use a drill to make the supertip hole wider. I think the one i used was 5/32 inch. maybe. then the bic inktube should fit perfectly

I make a really basic mod that's just a new pencil with pen caps on the end. I put 10-15 rubber bands on each end. Most of the time, due to slightly different placement of the rubber bands, my mod doesn't end up perfectly balanced. I know how to adjust the pen's weight, but are there any good ways to tell how balanced a pen is? I can usually get a general idea by trying a thumbspin and other tricks, but I'm curious if there are other ways besides just feel. :D
-

OR put it on your finger, on the middle of the pen, if one side is longer than the other, its NOT
-
Date: Thu, Nov 11 2010 02:58:03
Honestly COG balance isn't as important as the distribution of weight along the pen, but that's imo. To tell if it's "perfect" cog cop use a thin rubber band and a ruler...
-
Date: Thu, Nov 11 2010 06:26:53
And the distribution can be uneven in certain points on opposite side of the mod which is the case for all sc mods I have ever seen

Is there any way to use HGG ink in an mx, instead of the rsvp ink?
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 00:40:12
Yes but you will need to make a sunburst mx instead because the front part of the barrel is larger for sunbursts than regular rsvps and the hgg inktube is identical the the sunburst inktube. You can also try rsvp gel.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 02:10:47
i'm pretty sure if you cut off a bit of the end of the hgg ink tube, it'll fit (not sure, just a feeling) but as a warning, if you plan on spinning that mx with a reversed inktube with the hgg ink, the hgg ink will likely spill and ruin your shirt and/or carpet, since gel ink is more prone to leaking and the spinning just exacerbates things
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:10:10
Yeah, I would not suggest spinning a pen with gel ink, as they leak a lot. Ballpoint, mechanical pencil and sign pens are ideal for writable mods.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:23:32
Sign pens and markers leak too yknow
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:26:30
Yeah but not quite as much as gel. Mech pencil and ballpoint are the best either way.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:40:24
And also I've had a ballpoint pen leak on me too actually. Don't ask me how but I was spinning it and I noticed some black stuff on my hand and then I looked at my pen and one of the caps was covered in ink.
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 04:44:44
just wondering, since i've seen this on my needlepoints iirc or even rsvp inktubes. in the inktube, theres like foam. anyone know if this helps prevent leaking or what its even for ?
-
Date: Sat, Nov 13 2010 05:52:54
Yeah I think it's to prevent leaking from the back. Or at least keep the ink under pressure so it comes out smoothly from the front. I believe G2 inktubes have some weird yellow glue kinda stuff instead of the white stopper

A.Sate wrote: How do you get an RSVP grip out of its cap? I tried pliers, and I don't have any HGG tips.
if its in too far it wont work, but if you put the rsvp back into the cap (so the grip goes onto the front bit) you can usually pull it out without worrying about damage to the grip if you pushed the rsvp grip in too far, or wont come out my way too easily, dont force it with the body, you could snap it -
Date: Sun, Nov 14 2010 05:39:52
You could try needle nose pliers and stick one side of them in and push the grip against the side of the cap and pull it out that way. ORRRR take some lube or soap and water and use a flat head screwdriver to get the grip away from one side of the cap. Then pour that stuff in so it's slippery and do this so that there is lube all around the grip. And then slide it out.

Correct, and Sangara used to be a good friend. What he did was just reverse an inktube through the comssa backplug. You could figure out a retracting mechanism but thats a whole nother discussion.

first you need to roll it around something thin, the inktube usually works then the paper should hold, and you can easily put it in the barrel then after a while it'll "expand" into the barrel not sure what i just said, but point is insert around inktube > insert then into barrel
-
Date: Tue, Nov 16 2010 11:31:59

2 questions. 1. Does this Dr. AC http://penwish.com/product_info.php?products_id=1009 a "art color/color twin WHITE body" use these caps and body: http://penwish.com/product_info.php?products_id=1001 To build one of them, you would need two white art colors/color twins (only using 1 body, and 2 big caps) and 2 dr. grip tips? 2. Can I build a RSVP MX^2 with a sunburst, even with the different type of tip? Because in the tutorial it says to shave some part of the tip, and I'm not sure if I need to do that for a sunburst. Thanks.
-
Date: Fri, Nov 19 2010 03:08:47
@Riley 1a) Yes, it uses that body 1b) You would also need 3 sailor grips. 1 skyblue, 1 pink, and 1 grey. 2) Yes you can do it with the sunburst as well. The grip might be a little lower and might not run all they way up to the tip if you push it all the way down on the body so you might need an extra grip ring in the front. Other than that only the length of the body varies slightly and the design on the body.

-

@Morpheus: There is no difference between the metallic ones and the regular ones except for the little rubber disk in the back of the cap is an ugly yellow white in the metallic ones and is the color of the ink in the regular ones. Other then that they are the same body wise and all that. Also I'm pretty sure that sunburst bodies are actually a bit longer then RSVP bodies becuase when you make a sunburst MX you have to add extra grip to fill the gap up to the spinnable part. If that makes sense haha.

I'm not sure what cameras are good right now but my camera is pretty old. 5 years i think? And my pics come out decently imo. Not the best but they aren't super blurry. Look around amazon and ebay or find a forum that specializes in photography and ask for help :D

What's the best way to take out the backcap of a comssa without damaging it or destroying it? I've never done it yet and don't want to destroy it, can you screw it off or take it off by hand?

Wrap a grip or rubber band, grip it tightly, and yank quick and hard.

How do you remove a G3 grip from its body, I read that you're supposed to put something underneath the grip. What should I use for that?

a paperclip works, although unless you really need the grip, i'd just cut it.

Will crimping an RSVP grip make it more prone to exploding?

... What? Do you mean an inktube? If so, no. If you mean a grip, ...what.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 9 2010 04:15:13
I mean you're putting pressure on the inktube. If you squeeze extremely hard eventually the ink's gonna come out. But usually you shouldn't have any problems with it exploding.

For the any-x, which portion of the grips are used? The larger bump or the shorter bump?
-
Date: Fri, Dec 10 2010 03:40:05
It doesn't really matter. Whichever side of the grip fits better on the side of the Any-X that you want to put the grips on.

@Quantized if you can find any other solid pen cap that's as thick as it then you can use it, but theres not anything i can think of that you can use the sailor grip dr grip tip combo without the grips looking differently

Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 03:11:47
I'd go with the dr grip grip one, all of the others are just different colour schemes. Dr grips are better to spin with than other grips, so it's better.

Couldn't agree more with Holypie. dr grip grips are, without a doubt, the BEST grips for pen mods. To be honest though, with the tricks you can do, i would go for a buster CYL mod, or a waterfall mod.
-
Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 03:38:05
This is posted in the wrong place, you don't really need to make a thread for a question. You could make you own metallic comssa using parts from penwish. All you need is a comssa body, 2 comssa caps, 2 hgg tips and some grips to go on the two caps. ( sailor gel grips, anyballs, signos, etc) Anyball grips are the easiest too cut and are cheap. To make it you double cap the comssa. ( you can take out the ink cartridge too) Add grips over the caps, and screw the tips onto the caps. If you have anymore 1 answer questions. Use "search" to find things. PS i recommend not to spin heavy pens for a while. But it's you choice...

Buster cyl shouldn't be a first mod/teaching tool. When you're learning tricks and creating muscle memory you shouldn't use a pen that can correct little mistakes for you. -

first of all, dont use the auto settings. try out different settings which works best (its different if u're in different place & different time) and also, give it some natural lighting if u're taking blurry pics from pens, i suggest turning on close up take a pic, im not too sure what exactly is ur problem really >_> PrinceXD

stabilo trio.

Super lavables are used as reynold 094 clear caps.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 16 2010 23:35:08
You mean as a clear waterfall cap? That's pulpis, superlavables are the bodies. I think you can use superlavables for the s777 mx cap as well.
-
Date: Fri, Dec 17 2010 00:06:33
actually, the stabilo trio is a sub for the cap. it fits on the back of a g1 but you really gotta force it on. i'm not sure what brand the real cap is but it literally snaps onto the back of a g1 nicely and fits perfectly, but its definitely not a stabilo trio... if OP wants to buy an s777 mod with the correct cap, PM me so we can talk business.

It's not the grips but the tips. Jell tips weight more like a dr kt but regular tips weigh much heavier. And personally I think white looks the best

The tutorial on the wiki is REALLY vague, I'm not sure if I cut the HGG grip or not, where the hgg tip goes, etc. Is it G3 cap < G3 tip all the way < HGG grip minus 5 mm wrapped in insert all the way < HGG tip wrapped in 5 mm of HGG grip which goes under the insert?Nvm got it. -

Actually Miffy color caps are slightly harderto get than the colors of ct caps from the smaller packs cuz the miffy colors usually come in larger packs like 24 and 32 and cost more. Well actually for certain colors i mean. bottom line is the price changes per color of miffy cap

@Matt That's a miffy cap. It's either miffy cap or CT cap. You can't tell the difference. Many of the colors are the same exact thing. There may be some colors that are different, but there is no way to know. So... Really, it doesn't really matter. Either way they are the same exact thing so you will not be able to know the difference.
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 08:08:08
no, not many of the colors are the same. the only color that is the same is black, and maybe green. What if someone compared a real green miffy cap and the green CT cap, and they were noticeably different. that means that i paid for something i didnt get. that DOES matter.
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 08:12:56
it doesnt take a genius to say that the greens are the same exact dude.
Zoom in and take a look for yourself. I'm pretty sure they are the exact same thing. If not, im wrong. PM Penwish yourself for this matter if you really do not trust everything.
@Matt
and don't forget the red and orange are also the same. -
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 08:15:07
nope, red and orange are NOT the same; i held them side by side, and saw a NOTICEABLE difference is red AND orange. the orange is much lighter and red is more orange.
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 16:52:11
Dude Miffy light green and CT light green are almost identical. I have both caps... I mean sure there might be extremely slight variations but for the most part, you should be able to find miffy colors in that pack. And plus you're not going to get an accurate comparison by holding your pens to your computer screen (which I assume you're doing. If not, then sorry lol) because chances are the lighting in the room you are in does not match the lighting which the photographer used to take that picture.
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 21:15:08
Holding pen to computer screen? No. try common sense. I held the lime green miffy cap and the lime green miffy cap in person side by side, they are NOTICEANLY different. if you look in the 36 pack (Which Includes EVERY color twin pentel makes), THERE IS ONLY ONE LIME GREEN. process of elimination: you cant get the miffy cap in the 36 pack. I held the red miffy cap and the red CT cap side by side in person, NOTICEABLY DIFFERENT. look in the picture, ONLY ONE RED. Is there any pen in that 36 pack that even slightly resembles the dark purple miffy cap? No. you know what that means? YOU CANT GET MIFFY CAPS IN COLOR TWIN! THEY ARE RARE!
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 22:34:18
I had no idea if you had the caps or not okay? I would have at least tried to observe the differences in that manner if I didn't have the caps. This IS common sense =.= And you haven't compared the purples in person so I don't think it's safe to assume that they're different. If you're getting so worked up about it, how about you stop ranting and go ASK Darkrose about it. Figure something out. Return the pens or something. I told you the lime greens look almost the same to me. If they're that different in your eyes, then that's your problem. Edit: ORRRR just blow $200 bucks on a 36 CT pack and a full M&M Miffy pack and your problem will be solved
-
Date: Sat, Dec 25 2010 22:50:44
Yes, I have compared the purples side by side, not even close. And the real way to solve the problem is to get my friend to who KNOWS he has the real green miffy cap to compare the miffy cap to the CT cap in person. if there actually look the same, then fine. if not, i got ripped off.

When making a kuzu mod, the part about making the cap is unclear in this tutorial: http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=10044&st=80&p=339050&#entry339050 specifically step 11. How does the hi-tec-c tip go in?
-
Date: Tue, Dec 28 2010 23:42:39
What he means is: -put hitec-c in cap -then put the hgg tip and hj grip into the cap. -put a bit the the hgg inside the hj grip and then push the two parts inside the cap. To be honest, it doesnt matter who u do it and its plain simple, just put hitec-c, hgg, hj grip inside the cap. The "(HGG tip first)" part will count because if u dont put a bit of the hgg inside the grip it´ll rattle^^

Isn't there a signo tip inside the cap too?
-
Date: Wed, Dec 29 2010 15:47:36
No, there is no Signo Tip inside the cap. U need 2xSigno, 1xHgg, 2xHitec-C, 1xPLastik G3. Front ist PLasticG3-Hitec-C-Signo-Signo Cap: Hitec-C, HGG All tips used:) You could of course substitute the Hitec-C+HGG with Signo because: Signo=1,8g Hitec-C=G1=1,2g Hgg=0,6g. HGG+Hitec-C=1,8g=Signo. Thats one of the many reasons why Kuzu Mod (or lets say this version of it) sucks, hgg+hitec-c is a quiet expensive choice and the signo tips fits exactly as good. Its ONLY Signo tip in the cap then and please dont start with but kuzu did...i dunno why he did it like this probably he was out of Signo tips or he did use Signo himself and laughts everytime he sees somebody buying "original" kuzu mod with expensive tip spam:)

@Nachoaddict, the point of these threads like 'Quick Modification Questions' is that people don't have to go to Google.com and search for an hour or more but ask here, on UPSB, and get an answer from several people who have had experience and knowledge is usually reliable. I hate it when instead of helping someone out, you just tell them to go search it up themselves; pointless posts which have no meaning and are complete spam. If you have nothing good or [B]helpful[/B] to say, don't say anything at all. This is also why UPSB is going down the drain.

@Jan It didn't take me an hour to google image search Pilot G1 and Pilot G3 and figure out that they looked different. Do you know the reason for why I'm telling you to go and search? It's because you constantly ask questions that you can find the answers to by simply searching. I mean sometimes it is FASTER to just search than to ask on this thread. My post isn't pointless. It's simply suggesting you try searching before you ask questions. That's one of the rules. You haven't read the rules have you? Well go and read rule 4 please. I mean seriously how long have you been here. You've got the 3rd highest amount of posts on the board. Cmon man...

If I put the "better retractable" method (Hybrid G3 Retractable mod reference) on the f1r3fly g3, then would it ruin it's COG=COP? If so, then how about drilling a hole in the G3 backcap and putting rsvp inktube in? Would that ruin it's COP=COG? If these methods fail, then what are other methods to use?

Ahh thank you very much for the clarification, I was wondering how to fit a hi-tec-c tip into a hyperjell grip inside the cap, because it doesn't fit very well haha. -
Date: Wed, Dec 29 2010 21:56:54
You could weigh the unbalanced side with paper or something, in the back there's a lot of room and in the front you can stick some stuff in the G3 inktube that was emptied.

I recently ordered a Buster CYL and a Metallic Comssa from Penwish.com and I noticed that one of the Comssa caps on the buster don't really fit that well on the supertips and when i would spin it, the cap would kinda go lopsided and i'd have to push it back into place. I was wondering if anyone else have this problem w/ their buster.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:24:25
Try putting a bit of teflon tape on the cap? Or another kind of tape. Also, this belongs in general modifications questions here: http://forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=277
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:26:28
It won't be called Signo in North America, it would still say Signo on the cap but stores sometimes call it "Uniball Gel Grip", it's still the same as signo DX. They won't come separately in NA unless you go to a Japanese store which might have them.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:32:37
Oh okay.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:33:57
If it's the cap on the front of the super tip, add some more teflon. If it's the cap on the back part of the super tip with the comssa backplug, also add more teflon, on the comssa backplug, until it's tight.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:36:46
Its the cap on the front of the super tip, but im confused. Why would i add more tape? The super tip seems too big for the comssa caps.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:38:53
Sounds good, I guess. So, I'm assuming that the RSVP method is the safest way to go?
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:48:21
it depends on the kind of ST (discontinued kind or the newer) or if the comssa is v1 or v2...
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:52:48
How do i know if its comssa v1 or v2 since i just ordered the mod on penwish
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:55:20
@dliu1994, it says on Penwish... http://penwish.com/product_info.php?cPath=108&products_id=271 http://penwish.com/product_info.php?cPath=108&products_id=883
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:56:09
It should be the V1 then. V2 comssas have smaller caps and Penwish doesn't have any busters that use V2 caps atm I think.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 00:58:10
the caps are v1. you add tape on the "tip" of the supertip so that the cap won't go loose and wobble. my buster's supertip got tape on it so not a single cap flies.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 01:02:39
yeah... but i ordered http://penwish.com/product_info.php?products_id=1121 so im assuming its comssa v1
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 01:04:09
Probably.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 01:05:55
Idk if adding tape will help. It seems that the supertip is too big for the comssa caps. The cap doesnt go loose, it just kind tilts to one side and i have move it back
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 01:11:51
File it?
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 04:10:47
@dliu1994 they are saying to add tape on the tip part of the supertip, the part that was made for the inktube coming out for you to write. However, having a lot of tape on the very tip can give a snug fit without having to stretch over the supertip body itself like normally happens. Also, to answer your question, it is normal for the cap to be a bit unstable on the front because the body itself is thick. Over an extended period of time though, the stretch over the supertip body can kind of ruin the comssa cap and it wont fit as well on other things. Shouldn't be a problem though, it's normal, just push it farther on the front if you need to and add tape on the front so theres something else holding the inside

Do the tips in a Dr.KT have to be specifically from the japanese mechanical pencil version of Dr.Grip? Or can you use the american version of the pen? I know you can't use the center of gravity versions because the tips are extremely small. If anyone can shed light on this matter I would be extremely thankful!
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 07:43:28
You can, but it will be significantly lighter if you use the tips from the American Dr. Grip rather than the Japanese Dr. Grip. @Mysterio2004173

I take a chopstick and press it against the inside of the grip and pull it out. If that doesn't work, try folding it inside the cap with tweezers and pulling it out that way.
-
Date: Thu, Dec 30 2010 20:58:34
http://forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=23 These type of questions should be posted here. Usually you can lurk through the pages and you can find the answers. And to answer your question, what Tetsip said. The japanese tips are often used because theyre better looking, and theyre small and dense.

Put the hgg tip in the signo tip, put the hgg tip (the bottom of it) in the signo dx grip, shove all of that in the g3 cap, make another one, put dr grip grips on the caps, stick the caps on the comssa. At least that's what I think it is.

actually, this is wrong. according to the picture tutorial from dongza, you are suposed to put the hgg tip in the top of the signo tip, and you use only 1 signo dx grip for both of the caps: one third of the grip goes for the front cap(the one that goes on the tip of the comssa body), and the two thirds piece goes on the backcap. -

It's this:
Version 1 uses HGG grips
Version 2 uses signo DX grips
Bernardo was partly right. 2/3 is on the tip side. 1/3 is on the backplug side. That's how I made mine, but yeah. -

I forgot to say that the grips can be bought separately as well, buying the grip+tip is cheaper than the whole pencil unless you want it for writing.

It depends. If you are talking about the Penwish Hoops, like the ones on the metallic comssa, then you should ask him. If you want to make hoops yourself, you can take a RSVP grip and cut the bulge off. I don't know if it is the same weight or something, but it is pretty similar.

If I do, somehow I can't put it on the RSVP body. If I can, then it won't fit in the cap. Is there a method I can use to fix this? 2. Are there any subs for the penzgear rings? Do airfit rings work?

Baaron also had a tutorial but I'm not sure if it's valid cuz it's different from ponkotu's. But ponkotu's version looks better imo The back and front are constructed differently. The most notable differences are that ponkotu's has an hgg tip visible in the rsvp cap and ises a signo braod cap in the front. Baaron's has an rsvp grip where ponkotu's hgg tip is and Baaron's uses a g3 cap in the front

@Paramours I usually use a razor blade and basically use this ruler that I have that has a slit running down the middle as part of it's design.

@Resonance. If you want to use super glue it's very possible to remove the ink. Just take out the tips with scissors or pliers first. Then cut off the protruding tips of the plastic parts that hold the ink on both sides. I mean don't cut off the part that holds the cap but cut off the think that stick out of that piece of plastic that holds the ink felt tip. Then try to pull out the ink from the eraser side or shove a chopstick up the side hole opposite to the eraser side. Then once the eraser ink is out, push the chopstick in the hole opposite to the eraser side (yeah kinda similar steps) and remove the plastic thingy that holds the eraser and regular ink thinkgies together. The you can remove the regular ink cartridge from the other side. If after all this rape of your super pirat, the caps don't stay on. Use superglue.

So basically you line up the grip and the ruler slit perpendicular and use the slit as a guide or you line the grip IN the slit and cut?
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 05:53:18
Basically it's like this. Pretend this is the dr grip grip: ||||||||||||[COLOR="red"][B]|[/B][/COLOR]||||||||||||||| ||||||||||||[B][COLOR="red"]|[/COLOR][/B]||||||||||||||| That red line is where I want to cut the grip. Basically the ruler pushes down on both sides of the grip (the ruler is vertical from this viewpoint and the slit runs down the length of the ruler) so that I can get an even cut. The slit is there so that I can still cut the grip even though I have both sides of the grip pushed down. It simply provides an opening for the razor blade. You can try using two objects for this but I find this ruler method to make much cleaner cuts
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 06:07:00
Well, my solution is this. Back, the tip and rsvp front with the mini rsvp grip- then 3 light rings/washers- then half of a signo broad grip so it would stay on the backcap. So, I don't have a clue what you're talking about.
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 06:10:18
It's not very stable since the back cap is sticking out of the cap unlike conventional mx's @scout I mean it's fine if you're fine with it but I'm just a bit uneasy about it falling apart if I drop it and it hits a hard surface like a desk or wall.
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 06:29:50
It actually tens to fall off more when I just have the grip and the rings. With the extra grip, it stays on the cap much longer. :)
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 14:50:50
Awesome man, thanks for the help ^^
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 18:18:32
Oh what do you mean by extra grip? You mean: hgg-rsvp package > rings > grip? <- this grip? Because I do that too. Obviously if you don't have the grip it will be unstable. Ponkotu's pic looks like it has grip + back cap but it's not affirmed

I wanted to use cut tape for my mod so does anyone have any ideas? I don't know what type of tape to cut. What kind of knife or razor? Where can be found in US? Tutorials needed
-
Date: Mon, Jan 3 2011 20:14:21
I just use scissors. You can get vinyl or electrical tape at hardware stores like home depot or ace hardware. Just cut easy designs like strips of tape or triangles first. Then you can try the harder stuff like flames. You could also put the tape on a flat surface and cut the design with an xacto knife and then put it on your mod.
-
Date: Wed, Jan 5 2011 16:21:47
Ponkotu did not explain how he attach the cap to the barrel. and theres no 100% Saizen RSVP yet, since Saizen did NOT reveal it.. Ponkotu only "estimated", as written in Japanese in the tutorial. iMatt attached the penz gear part where it hold the rings together to the RSVP back (where those twisting threads are), and then simply sticking it in the cap. I dont think thats the correct method (even based on ponkotu's blog) since u can still clearly see the RSVP backcap in the final product. PrinceXD

Removing G2 Grip? :x
-
Date: Sat, Jan 8 2011 05:55:08
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.

Date: Sun, Jan 9 2011 03:56:07
When I first started pen spinning and heard about mods, before I tried to make any official mods, I made my own. It is made out of a Pilot G2 pen and an unsharpened pencil. First I took apart the Pilot G2 and removed the eraser of the pencil. The pencil just ended up looking more like a stick than a pencil. Then I emptied the barrel of the Pilot G2 and stuck the pieces on the ends of the pencil. The top part of the pen eventually broke because the pencil wouldn't fit in it. I just wrapped tape around it in the end. So there's my mod. It you could try it out and give some feedback that would be cool.

Yup. If you want the real flexgrip (made by Papermate) then go to Office Depot or PW (assuming you're in the U.S.). Otherwise try stationery stores because I'm not very familiar with stores in Vietnam. If you want the sub, try going on Sanford's website and finding it.

@GeeGeeGee: Flexgrip sub, the clicker is different, the saga's lined part is smaller than flexgrip, the flexgrip has smaller body, and the tips have distinct difference, but they are interchangeable.

Mine flexgrip sub ( Sanford Saga Pen?) can fits Supertips Cap nicely. That's why I want to know where can you get it. I posted the mod on Show off your mod First Post thing. -
Date: Thu, Jan 13 2011 02:53:10
Thanks! That helped me identify which tip is which. The saga's tip is thinner, and has less threads. Its about 1 mm shorter, and the threaded part is noticeably thinner. However, the tip is heavier by a bit. And yeah, ST caps fit on snugly. Looks odd though. Well, its made in korea, so you could trade with koreans if you could. If not, try looking around online, theyll probably be hard to find in a store.

what insert goes good with a black mod? and this may have already been answered, but how would you resize an insert for the barrel of an RSVP if you dont have Photoshop?
-
Date: Thu, Jan 20 2011 05:14:07
@Morpheus, you could always do your own inserts, roll up your blank insert, put it all the way inside, then try to pull it out without unraveling the paper and mark where your insert starts again, the rest should be self explanitory, also you can use the newest MS word or MS paint, I'm sure both have the ability to change dimensions of pictures by whatever length you set it to. Also if your whole mod is black i would personally put some white/brighter colors around the edges, it leaves streaks when the colors contrast each other.

-
Date: Mon, Jan 24 2011 03:29:22
Because that's how Spinnerpeem made his. Probably because namae bodies are very short and comssa bodies are thin. You don't have to go exactly with his tutorial. Change it as you like.

you could try to take the g2 grip off, tape the whole back part with a layer or two of packaging tape and put the grip back out. cause what i think is happening is that the spring/inktube is shoving that whole part out.

Does anyone notice Crayola has release many versions of Supertips? I've found like 4 versions of it in my place.
New one 
====> This picture belong to another spinner. I found that in Walmart. The only different is it has design on the cap and the back plug thingy.
The "newest" that I found looks exactly like this marker. 
I have two markers that my bro. found and the thing is I have no idea where it come from.
The newest one has thinner body. NO signature No mark No nothing. Kinda like white comssa ( I don't have a comssa so idk judge by looking)
And btw does anyone sale the original one? I meant the right one on the first picture. -

REALLY nooby question, but what differentiates a personal mod from just a regular mod? In my 4 1/2 months of spinning, I never really got into modding. I just got one pen and stuck with it until i got another one xD
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:03:24
A personal mod is a mod of your own creation, designed by you. A "regular" mod is just a mod that someone else made and you're following their design. Often a "regular" mod is just someone's personal mod, like most of the G3 mods.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:08:04
@Holypie So say someone made a personal mx. How would that be different from a "regular" mx? Like are there added parts, or just different grips or tips or something?
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:09:06
Just an RSVP mod that's customized to your liking, usually.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:12:22
@Holypie So you could pretty much do anything to it? You can add random grips and tips to it, just to fit your personal liking, and it would then be your own personal mod?
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:12:51
Basically.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 1 2011 04:19:33
@Holypie Ok. And one last thing, how do people know what grips/tips go good with what pens/mods? Do you just experiment and figure out what fits where and what looks good and whatnot?

You could make a RYO cheat comssa. Signo tips glued on top of the HGG. Or you could put hgg tips inside the caps, along with the metallic comssa caps.
-
Date: Wed, Feb 2 2011 02:14:33
fyi, RYO cheat comssas use hi-tec C tips... NOT signos. If you watch the 'tutorial' closely, the tips are flush with the comssa cap... Signos don't work. Unless RYO used shaved HGG tips. In which case... Yeah. Also, signo tips on top of hgg tips is HEAVY. RYO cheat comssas are nice though.

If you push hard enough, signo tips fit in comssa caps. Also hgg's. F-301 tips fit in kt caps. These aren't all of them, only the ones I've used.
-
Date: Wed, Feb 2 2011 15:44:27
In as in inside right? Also if you screw in the HGG tip really far the signo will fit flush with the cap, but signo tips fall off the HGG tips quite easily.

-
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 02:38:21
For the cap you insert the g3 tip, then make sure you cut the grip down (cut at half of the 3rd dimple from the front) and put the hgg tip inside the grip and wrap the insert around the grip and put that "package" into the cap. Add the other grips like sailor and dr. grip grip over the outside. You might want to wrap the tip in teflon tape or something so it doesn't rattle.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 03:55:42
The way I made mine was that I wrapped the insert around the hgg grip and I folded the 5mm of grip and pushed it all the way against the hgg tip. I kept the orientation of the grip the same as it was in the picture, then I took tweezers and pushed the grip so it looked like the letter u in bubble letters kind of.
-
Date: Tue, Feb 8 2011 03:59:03

I couldn't exactly tell for sure from your video what was wrong, except for a problem with the clicker. There are a few things that could go wrong: -I see when you first touched the toothpick, it didn't budge. Make sure the hole in the RSVP back cap is big enough so that the toothpick slides through, instead of creating a lot of friction. You should barely have to touch it to make it move. -The end of the toothpick may be getting stuck in the anyball mechanism. Try putting something on it to stop it from sticking into the mechanism. -The tip might not be taped to the RSVP barrel strongly enough, which might cause it to slide forward with the inktube. -Did you make the 3mm cut at the RSVP tip? -Try crimping the inktube better, the spring might be sliding a bit back. When I was making the mod, even if a millimeter of the spring covered the crimped area of the inktube, it didn't function correctly. Hope this helps. These were a few problems I had when I was attempting this one. Also, why is the inktube so crooked? It's not like multiple inktubes are being taped together other then the toothpick at the end.

-
Date: Fri, Feb 11 2011 02:35:26
You might be able to. But you'd have to remeasure the Dr. Grip mechanism. I think a bic body is shorter than a KT, CT, or AC body. I don't even know if the dang thing this is wide enough. Also, Step 7 and 8 might not work. Just try to find a CT in America or order a KTs, CTs, or ACs from Penwish. Edit: I'd also like to say that I would post something constructive and leave the thread moving/area to the mods.

Medium would be best to prevent ripping. Professional look is more based on your cutting skills which you can always enhance

Stevieboy found Lime green profile subs ; EXACT same thing but just a different color. Lime green G2/Sailor/Signo dx are pretty common colors to find if you know where to find them. Sunburst/HGG are out of production, they aren't all out of stock yet but they are increasing in price, like a few cents :P Pensfactory.pl sells lime green profile replicas, same thing just that the grip is slightly more 'chewy' than a normal profile grip. I also heard its more prone to getting ripped, and when stretched it leaves a lighter tone on the grip.

Can anyone tell me how to make an inverse tip KT?
-
Date: Thu, Feb 17 2011 03:29:18
Basically the same as a regular KT only you might have to adjust the bodies because the tips might not fit with the caps clicking all the way in place due to the protruding end of the CT or KT areas where the ink comes out. Anyways hollow out your CT or KT caps by taking a bic body, aligning the cap so it is standing up with the clip side on the ground, pointing straight up, then hit the tip of the bic body with a hammer or other heavy object. Keep hitting until your hear a click or snap and the big body runs all the way through. The bic body needs to be aligned with that nub on the cap. Then you can invert your tips

how do you people get teh front insert in on the F1r3fly g3? i always ruin it when the g3 goes into the g2 body...
-
Date: Sat, Feb 19 2011 07:03:38
Cut your insert so that it goes around your g3 barrel front once around and a little bit more. So about 1.2 revolutions like you can wrap it around and have a little bit left over. Then try sliding your g2 barrel on. If it is crumpling the insert, you need to sand the g3. If it is too loose, add a bit of scotch tape around the g3 barrel (just a little bit) and try again until the g2 barrel is firm and steady. Also I highly suggest you have the threads of the g2 barrel facing the g3 barrel as it will make this much easier than if you face the g2 barrel in the reverse manner

Sailors and Beifas have differet colors, and I think Beifas are more rounded. Black and blue beifas are found in Canada but other colors are harder to get.
-
Date: Sun, Feb 20 2011 05:55:20
Beifas are much thicker and the sections themselves are longer and wider. And as A.Sate mentioned the colored beifas like pink, orange, and lime green are considered more difficult to obtain than sailors.

how to take the clip off of a jimnie cap?
-
Date: Sun, Feb 20 2011 22:08:59
Break it and then sand away the excess plastic. Or fit the blades of a pair of wire cutters between the clip and the cap on both sides of that piece of plastic that holds the "clipping" part of the clip to the cap. Squeeze and cut slowly and then sand if needed. If you go too fast you might snap the wire cutters together and possibly crack and damage the cap.

no dont listen to jazz you'll screw up the tip @Vortechs take a grip like anyball and just twist it off, you'll be able to grab it by using the grip

Date: Sun, Feb 27 2011 14:55:03
Or take an elastic band, it has more grip on metal than a grip does, and duct tape will be impossible to remove from the tip, and if you do it'll be fucked up with adhesive.

I was making white comssa and since I don't have super grip, I used another sub to fit the signo tip on to the comssa cap. I hot glued them and it works and all but if i were to take them off, I would have to remove the non-visable hot glue. [B]My question is, is there a way to melt or remove hot glue? Like putting it in boiling water or freeze it in the freezer or something so that I can remove the super grip sub part that holds the signo tip into the comssa cap?[/B]

@Jan first of all... why didn't you use thnikk's method since you live in the US? ._. how stupid are you to superglue the signo tip if you weren't going to keep it like that? http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=22582&hl=white+comssa you're kinda screwed now because any temperature to melt the hot glue will melt the plastic of the comssa cap. gg.

@browndog12 i had the same problem. The best solution so that the tip doesn't rattle is [B]put it in last[/B], sort of inside the grip. Then put the whole cap on to the super pirat body.

I've been meaning to make a saizen rsvp mod, but I don't know exactly how. "materials: 1 x rsvp + 1 more rsvp grip 1 x g3 cap 1 x signo tip 1 x hgg tip 1 x penzgear Put the whole rsvp grip into the rsvp cap, as far as you can Put two penzgear rings into the cap Put about half of the other into the rsvp cap Cut the g3 cap to ~4cm, from the opening of the cap Put the hgg tip on the front of the rsvp Place the signo tip over the hgg tip Put the cut g3 cap over the whole front part of the rsvp with an insert underneath it Put the completed rsvp cap on the backplug of the rsvp" That's what I got when I googled it. Some of my questions are in this pic. http://i56.tinypic.com/24mcaqb.png 1. So what are those grip(s), and what are the sizes of them? 2. Are you supposed to leave the second RSVP grip left on the body like normal? 3. It is 3 rings from Penzgear total, right?
-
Date: Mon, Feb 28 2011 03:52:45
For Minwoo mod, when you're sawing off the blue backplug, do you saw on the blue part, or on the white barrel, to get it off completely. Because I sawed off the blue part, but there's still a little left, which leaves the ink still inside.
-
Date: Mon, Feb 28 2011 04:34:07
@Riley you need to remove the ink. And yeah it might be a good idea to sand down the blue to get rid of it or keep it from showing on your finished product.

Ponkotu's is kinda weird with the translation and all. Is it basically this? 1. Cut RSVP top part above the ridges (circular things) 2. Attach HGG tip and put rsvp grip to fir the cut rsvp "tip" 3. Put this in cap with 3 Penzgear rings following that. 4. Cut Signo Broad cap to 4 cm 5. Leave RSVP grip on body and put signo tip on 6. Cut 1.2 cm of HGG Grip, then attach to rsvp after the the RSVP grip 7. Put insert and put signo broad on. 8. Assemble Am I right? I mean, i can't understand it perfectly, but that's what I think. iMatt's way, like in here : http://diy0qw.bay.livefilestore.com/y1pN0-gWXpoq4mgZUNoiP7MKUkGECcw8W1C2wT4OBGo2T_TmnBum5n0pQQPpBHzpeI7qLuDyZBwcY9XnjGeGdZM-LuekoDUGn0s/White-Saizen.jpg He uses the penzgear cap. HMMMMMMMMMMMM Then Jan's way is a combination of both. Baaron's and Ponkotu's. Anyways. If that "translation" is right, then thanks.

@jabog basically it's like a buster. You put comssa backplugs on both sides of the body of the pc2 buster (2 pc2 connected by bic body and cut down) and you wrap tape around the backplugs so the comssa caps fit on nice and tight

at least there is nor rule for the materials. it is allowed to spin a drumstick in a tournament. the question is, whether it is still a pen when you use screws or other stuff instead of tips... in my opinion it's not, what made me mod my impact mx with g3 tip with inverted hgg-tip in it. works as good as the screw. but very interesting question. hope for a good discussion!

1) Uncap 2) Pull the felt tips or the ink out with scissors or pliers. 3) Remove the plastic piece that used to hold the ink tip. Make sure it's the side that had the clipLESS cap on it. The other side is super hard to get off. I don't even know if it is possible. 4) Let the ink inside fall out 5) Re-attach plastic piece

Yeah, I use teflon tape for almost everything on opaque dc mods. Electrical tape is kind of meh because the adhesive sometimes gets out and messes up everything, also it gets annoying when it moves every time you take off the cap.

The difference between RSVP mx and sunburst mx is just the barrel itself Which means it should use HGG tip instead of HTC tip. So which is correct (based on the most original design), HGG tip or HTC tip? Also anymore fluorescent pinks? I was kinda thinking short grips like DX instead of long grips. PrinceXD

G1/G3/Hi-tec-C/Signo/Gripmatic? 2.Can KT/CT/AC cap fit on Supertip/Crayola without Comssa Back plug? 3.What is the difference between Minwoo mod v1 and v2? 4.Heard that Minwoo mod is not balanced.So which side of the Minwoo mod is heavier?Front or Back? 5.Does Zebra Jimnie have grip?coz i didn't see any mod using Jimnie grip...... thx for helping~
-
Date: Mon, Mar 21 2011 13:46:57
Idk about 1. 2) Yes they fit very nicely on the old version. The new version is much wider and harder to get the kt caps over on the back side. 3) v1 is the regular minwoo mod while v2 is a joke mod consisting of 6 or 7 stacked comssa caps. 4) Mine is balanced o_O 5) Yes it does. It is identical to a hyperjell grip so they can be interchanged.

-
Date: Tue, Mar 22 2011 11:00:05
Just buy Signos, get the metal tips, and you have a Cheat Comssa. Or, you can remove the already put grips and tips, buy Zebra Airfit Mechanical pencils and a Crayola supertip, then put the backplug on the Supertip, then the comssa caps then 1/2 a grip and a tip of the airfits on each side and you have a more heavier mod.

For keeping signo tips inside an emboss big cap wth a profile ring (or 2-3), how do you keep the signo tip in? Mine keeps on falling out when I spin. I don't want to use superglue, because I don't want to ruin the caps. I tried sticky tak, it didn't work either. Thanks.

-
Date: Tue, Mar 29 2011 23:14:53
Make sure that the signo tip is INSIDE the anyball ring, which is INSIDE the cap. If it's falling out you're doing something wrong. It also depends on the size of the ring, I think the small ones in the middle are the best.

Can anybody tell me the weight of a signo-tipped buster in terms of cheat comssas, metallic comssas and other variations of comssas? i decided my buster was too heavy so i swapped airfit tips with signo tips.
-
Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 02:05:55
lets use some forensics here. So, a buster body is a supertip body with comssa backplug and comssa caps. So basically, it's a DC comssa, just a little thicker, same weight. With that, if you add signo tips, a logical inference to be made is that a signo tipped "buster" is approximately the same weight of a signo tipped comssa. Follow my logic? Metallic would be lighter, cheat-comssa would be slightly heavier. GET IT?

Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 02:37:49
@Riley What I did was take some teflon tape (so you can remove it easily if you ever want to disassemble your mod) and wrap it around the flat part of the tips. By trial and error find a comfortable width of tape around the tips so that they fit snugly and securely into the grips and caps of the emboss mod. Or other pen lol. You can also use electrical tape only it might leave a sticky residue if you want to remove the tape and scotch tape is just a pain to remove sometimes.
-
Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 02:44:31
Oh, you just need a single ring of grip, no tape. I've had no problems with it falling out. It might be difficult to get the grip between the tip and the inside diameter of the hole in the cap at first but that's normal. If it's really too difficult get a smaller ring.
-
Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 02:51:17
Well I would think that a good ring size would be one where you could just put the ring in and then carefully push the tip in and it wouldn't fall out. I'm just saying tape might help you preserve more grips ;)

Date: Wed, Mar 30 2011 04:31:36
all of the pens are essentially barrel+caps+tips. since the tips are what differ most in weight, i'll talk about it here: Metal Comssa: 1 HGG tip on each side Signo-tipped comssa (and your "signo tipped buster"): 1 signo tip on each side Cheat Comssa: 1 HGG and 1 signo on each side Given that in terms of weight, HGG tips are like .7g and signo tips are 1.4g (i may be off but my point will still hold true), it follows that, in terms of weight: metal comssa < signo tipped comssa < cheat comssa Also, this is the regular pens forum not the pen mods forum.

I have some problems with my MP Dr.CT =.=" First is that I cannot stabilize my pushing cap (the cap used for clicking) ... It keeps moving side to side (not too much, but it irritates me anyway) ... I want it to stay steadily when I spin, just like a CT attached normally to a CT barrel ... The second is the bigger one, the pencil lead keeps breaking even when I put it my Dr.CT in my pencase (I'm sure that it breaks when I travel to school) ... Though a MP Dr.CT like mine cannot be dependent too much, but at least I want it not to be broken easily >.< Any suggestion ? I'll try to upload some pics of mine soon ...

@Rae to stop the wiggling, put a little cellophane tape between the body and the cap. as for the breaking lead, im not too sure about that one, but i think that you may be able to put something in the body to stop the tube from bouncing around and breaking the lead. im not too sure, i dont have any MP mods myself hope i was helpful though on an unrelated note, does anyone know if you can use the new supertip caps for STek mods like Hippo2626's PCST lime green mod?

@lagbeast you can try things like Saizen's RSVP mod and etc. There's tons of rsvp mods out there just check v3 tutorials approved area. If you don't like the unbalanced aspect of the MX you can try switching the tip to something like G3, signo, or Hi-tec C to get the COG to be closer to the COP

Well, one thing is it depends on how new the grip/cap is; the newer each is, the easier it'll stay on. However, in response to this, Japanese spinners actually leave about 1mm of space on the back plug, so the end of the cap doesn't quite line up with the back plug; That's how I do it as well; However doing it the way Krispey Kreme said will make it more secure. -

Teflon tape. One of a pen modders many best friends. Wrap it around the RSVP plastic tip after folding a long strip in half, then screw the signo tip on. If it doesn't work, add more or take some off.

no, the COG is slightly closer to the front, but all it does is give you more momentum than the MX. @V-Storm

Hello guys :D iv been wating for the baoO mod for long :D can any GPC guys help me translate the tutorial? I cant live with Google translate as i cant understand the translation because its frigging direct translate... Thank in advance and here is the tutorial http://forum.penspinning.de/viewtopic.php?f=8&p=466285#p466285 [Edit] Which is more possible? Subb the cap with hyperjell/jimnie cap or G3 cap? Insert too please :D
-
Date: Wed, Apr 6 2011 08:23:49
It's pretty easy to make this mod even from the German tutorial haha. Basically, its signo + hgg tip inside a RSVP retractable cap with yellow supergrip sections in it. The cap is held onto the supergrip body with a supergrip mechanism that is secured inside the supergrip sections in the RSVP cap. EDIT: the body is a supergrip body O_O I saw the threads that connect the mechanism to the body, shows how the cap is held onto the cap so well. The front has a few G2 + supergrip sections, an orange signo DX grip, 1 signo + 1 g3 tip. [B]OPTIONAL - Gripcut[/B] At the back of a G2 barrel, there is the part with the clip, the clip is taken off and that is where the dx grip + tips go. The black + yellow supergrip are on the actually back part of the body, not the skinny bit. Hopes this helps ? haha

uhhh insert, Alikebab released the insert awhile ago haha, you should search around for it. As for the cap, not really recommended :/ It will look really weird. You can just get a normal rsvp cap, then heat the signo tip up a bit so it fits into the cap. NOTE Alikebab used a retractable rsvp cap, not a normal one. he told me this before he released the tut. -

No i didn´t release my insert. and yeah i used a retr. RSVP CAP because of the tips. a normal RSVP cap is not really good for that mod because you cant make a signo tip fit into the cap ( believe me i´ve done it on the beginning....). But guys, dont forget, the RSVP retr. Cap is a sub itself. i dont know whtat Baoo used exactly. -

-
Date: Thu, Apr 7 2011 03:32:58
The only effective way I've used is a rubber band, wrapping it around, and twisting with all your might in a short quick and strong flick. I had to do it several times for the tip on my comssa cap.

I dunno if you are really damaging the cap, but what I do is insert a thin screwdriver unto the tip and push it out from one side, then from the other. this is done alternately. lesser effort to do. :P -
Date: Thu, Apr 7 2011 21:28:10
@JackyMacky what i did just now (i feel so accomplished :P) is wiggle the tips around in the cap. push it to one side and the other and in all directions until you can sort of feel it pop out of place. then it should be rather easy to unscrew.

I've searched the forums and tried a few google searches but I haven't found any mods for a G-350 pen.

Well, I actually have the 3rd but to write with it. You can sharp it, like cut the sharp thing of the tip of the DR GRIP. There is one that substitutes it, but don't remember the name. How about try Airfit Tips, I think it is heavier o.O. I don't think there is a clearbody keityo.

@Jan you don't... The pen grips are incedible irritating to try to pull off. Get the mp version and they slide right off the barrel. If you have the mp version then I can't help you there :/ Pw says that boiling the pens helps to dissolve the glue that holds the grip down so you can try that too.
-

If he has the MP version the grips should slide right off. Your best bet is to go back and buy MP Patints, unless you REALLY want to try to get the grips off.

Paint will probably make a bad surface for spinning unless you make an extremely even coat layer by layer. That takes a lot longer than slapping on an outsert or just buying a different color body. Also it can flake off and there goes your work down the drain

I have a American Dr. Grip shaker MP that i bought a long time ago. it looks like the picture below...also the only thing i notice between mines and the Jap Dr. Grip are the grips. are the tips the same?

1) Use wire cutters or a saw or knife to cut off the visible part of the nub of the cap. 2) Then use needlenose pliers to pull out as much plastic left on the nub from the cap as possible. 3) Then using a pair of scissors and rotate them in the cap and shave the inside of it as much as you can. 4) Then when the plastic inside is kind of flattened against the inside of the cap take your knife and try cutting the remaining plastic that is holding the inside plastic part to the inside of the cap. 5) Then use a bic body periodically to try to force that nub piece out by putting the cap on a table facing up and putting the body on the top of the cap and hitting the body with a heavy object in a downward fashion. -

@Flarion heat up a paper clip then poke the ball until the paper clip goes at least 3/4 of the way through. Then wait for a minute so the plastic ball will cool down and stick to the paper clip. Then pull (it may take practice) :D

NVM, I got it. for anybody wondering how to do it, I put the metal part the tip is attached to in a vice and squeezed it almost flat, over and over until it was kinda broken such that I could fold it into itself. The tip slipped off after that; it's not screwed on at all.

EDIT: DAMN YOU CANT EDIT POLLS BUT THE QUESTION IS CHANGED TO WHICH IS THE HARDEST AND THE BEST LOOKING ONE so I was wondering on other ppls opinions on these concepts Tape Cut: Advantages: In large Amounts of material Thinner to cut More for design on bodies Some designs grip cuts cant do Can be used anywhere on the mod Disadvantages Sticky Placement really matters Less variety in terms of colour Can be easy to rip Grip Cut" Advantages More colour Texture Disadvantage Harder to cut because of thickness and knife getting "stuck" Less in quantity Can be easy to rip Majorly used on ends Cap Cut: Advantage Gets a lot of praise Diverse in Colour Disadvantage Less quantity hard to cut Majorly used in one part of the mod (cap) In my opinion cap cuts harder because its limited and its easy to mess up while tape has a lot in quantity. But as in design I think tape is better because its easier and can be used on anywhere on the mod and no design limitations

I personally find grip cuts to be more attractive, but if the tape cuts were not in the spinning area of the pen, however, it would look really legit.

I don't get what you mean, but in modding terms, I think all of them are pretty easy to make,plus points if you are meticulous in making them. :D P.S. Just get a Metal Comssa and RSVP MX. no need for Buster, KT, and Minwoo mod. -

the dr.grip in my minwoo mod (the front cap) is turning greenish-yellow. When i bought it from riley, it was clearly green-yellow, so i replaced the grip. Now, with the new grip on, i am beginning to see the green-yellow forming. Has anyone else experienced this? What can i do to prevent this?

So, when you JUST unboxed it from Riley's order, was it green yellow? If not, then it may be because of an outside influence. For example. I tend to keep my pens in my pockets, and my pockets are grey, so the grips come out with a grey tinge. -

-
Date: Tue, Apr 19 2011 16:30:42
I dunno what you did to the mod but mines balanced too. Heres something I did to my mod (cuz its not really explained in the pic): - Cut the signo grip into 2 instead of 4 (i did 4 too, but if i knew about it i would prefer 2, just half them) - Add clear tape on the front of Comssa barrel to make it hold onto the signo grip (which then is stuffed into the cap) - remove the backplug and add tape around the ink tube to reduce rattling, insert the ink tube back and put back the backplug - for the other cap with signo grip, try placing part of the grip ON THE BACKPLUG first before forcing it into the cap, then just use brute force to force the whole part into the cap and it should lock it VERY nicely (when i tried pulling mine off it pulled with the backplug so thats VERY SECURED) - if yours isnt balanced all out, try adding tape on the ink tube towards the lighter side to make that part SLIGHTLY heavier.. will that help? PrinceXD p.s. @Along i did mine with evenly cutted signo dx grips. still balanced and stuff.

For F1R3Fly you don't need to take out the g3 backplug. If you want to, use a inktube or skewer through the front to poke it out. A toothpick should work, if you shove it in at a angle, just keep trying. And please search before you post.

I was wondering if there were any existing twistable mods, since I haven't seen or heard of one. I'm not a fan of inkless pens, and I am not a fan of reverse inktubes since you have to keep the cap off, and retractables are pretty unstable, so I figured a twistable mod would be a good combination. I have been on the wiki and a bit on the boards and haven't seen one. Do any even exist?

Would they fit into the Dong-A cap though? Or is this irrelevant due to the heavier weight -thus unspinnability - of the pen? Thanks for the help. Edit: Could the ring hoops on penwish be massed and used as a grip instead? Or are they just meant for aesthetics/weight? Thanks again. Edit 2: I didn't realize that penwish sold the actual grips for Anyball/Profile/Star Gel Max. Silly me. Thanks for your help! -

That's what I was thinking, but instead of both small and large caps use 2 large caps on each end held together by sailor gel grips after cutting off the nub of the other 2 caps then adding the tips to the the same caps using the same method. -

Normal "KT's" would use a Color twin, art color, M&M, or Keityo body + big caps from those markers. S360 KT's use S360 bodies and caps. The grips and tips are the same. (Some Kt's choose to use sailors.) Also, I have a question. How do should you stretch/pull Pilot Patint grips onto old namae caps? (for Coulomb Namae mod) I only managed to put on 1 cm of a 2 cm piece on. Guitrum's method didn't work. Thanks. -
Date: Sat, Apr 30 2011 04:52:43
Protip: Those patint grips are hard to stretch. They are tight as fuck so you gotta put em onto some needlenose pliers and pull the handles apart and stretch the grip as much as possible. Don't rip it though. I don't think you will but you never know there might be some buff modders out there. After that, apply some soap and water onto the inside of the grip and the push it onto the cap. If it does not go on, repeat the stretching and re-apply the soap and push again. Do this until the grips are on the caps.
-
Date: Sat, Apr 30 2011 05:06:46
That actually wont work, too fragile You could argue to put something between the caps to secure it But if you do wiper tricks with that, high chance of the caps splitting apart and mod fly around, due to large momentum. (with sharp dr.grip tips u wont want that to happen) PrinceXD

is there a good way to protect a pen (mostly the cap) from cracking? i had a namae mod... very light. I dropped it twice and one cap cracked. it had sailor grips on it... so i was planning on buying a white waterfall mod from penwish...20 bucks is kinda expensive... would they be prone to cracking? would the risk be lessened if i added dr grip grips? would using g spec grips be better than the pw fake ones?
-
Date: Sat, Apr 30 2011 05:23:47
If the Gspec grips cover the entire cap then yeah they kind of protect the caps from drops. Only other thing I would suggest is spin over soft surfaces like carpet.
-
Date: Sat, Apr 30 2011 05:37:07
I guess you could use something else like glue or something, but the sailor grips are stretched a decent amount so I thought it might work. But yeah i forgot how much momentum is built up during wiper tricks.

I don't know anything about mods, so i need some help deciding what to get. So far i've been using just a regular pencil to spin. I would like a pen that is good for beginners. I also want it to look like a real pen and not some sort of stick. Can anyone recommend a pen that fits my description and also send me a link where i can buy it?

No, no, no, no. There are no suitable subs for HGR in either weight or shape. Hgg is much lighter, and the other three are too heavy/large. -

I suppose you could use an hgg tip for that. Just make something like metallic comssa caps and use the sticky tak around the tip to attach the impact rt. It's taped so it won't be too unstable, just a tad lighter.

what does the lighter fluid actually do to the pen? -
Date: Thu, May 5 2011 17:11:01
Lighter fluid should def be available in the UK, you should be able to find some in tobacco/cigar stores. Might need to be 18+. Some convenience stores sell it here too, worth a shot. Breaking open a disposable lighter sounds kinda dangerous. As you'd imagine, the fluid is super flammable, and breaking it open COULD create sparks depending how you go about it. No idea how that works, I used to use the fluid to wash out bearings. Probably slightly warps the plastic, changing the texture.

Yes, I am. I just need to get this mechanism figured out, and the transition on the G2 inktube won't let it pass through the part where the G2 and G3 connect.

Don't get a Buster CYL, it's too heavy for beginners. Waterfall mod and metal comssa variations would be a better choice. Also, an M-301x is a simple MP that is easy to make with 2 Zebra M-301s or you can buy it pre-made here: http://penwish.com/product_info.php?cPath=121_128&products_id=934 -

-
Date: Sat, May 14 2011 01:15:25
Yes when they manufacture the pens I'm pretty sure they use glue to keep the grip from slipping. Usually they are really annoying to pull off without using your finger nails and if you do that, you get those disgusting nail marks in the grip. I usually remove HGG grips by breaking the front of the barrel and cracking it so nothing is holding the grip from sliding off except for the glue. Then I take a towel or shirt and use it to grip the grip and I just pull until it comes off. You get really clean grips that way even though you waste the barrel.
-
Date: Sat, May 14 2011 18:09:42
So I scrapped that last idea, and instead I will drill the back of the G3 cap wide enough for a G2 clicker to fit. I'll have to remove the tips, though.

The blue part? Saw, then use drill to clear? I'm not sure. -
Date: Mon, May 23 2011 05:12:00
Yeah you want to saw off all of the ink holder piece of the marker. If the hole isn't big enough you can widen it with a drill like V-Storm mentioned or just a pair of scissors. Insert one blade and twist repeatedly so that it scrapes the inside of the hole until you get the desired size.

Kitchen scissors works fine. You can use the blade to lightly scour the grip and cut according to that line. How do I ensure that spray paint sticks on a grip? The rubber surface is cleaned carefully, but after drying the paint comes out in flakes. -

i guess i can try......anymore suggestion?
-
Date: Tue, May 24 2011 13:47:09
Use something to push the grip down when you cut it. Push it onto your table with a ruler or sometging similar and use a razor blade and push straight down. That's what I do.

Date: Wed, May 25 2011 00:03:02
I think that regular glue should work OK, or maybe epoxy will work too. Just let it dry for awhile. If that doesn't work just buy more comssa caps, they are cheap ;) BTW., please take the time to make your post readable, i couldn't read half of your message.

@Starryz97 stretch the grip out with two weights on both ends. so that its completely stretched and has a lot of tension. (if you know what im talking about). then use a razor blade (square blade, etc.) and chop straight down. For my weights I use my dad's wrench. or you cna use a heavy textbook
-
Date: Thu, May 26 2011 03:37:36
For straight cuts, I use guitrum's method (Cutting around on a barrel) with a small variation. Put tape around the waste side of the grip that you do not need. That way, you have a straight line to cut on. then, slowly cut around with a knife with a good grip. I use a box knife/utility blade. They 90% of the time give perfect cuts. @Starryz97

Hi everyone, I've been working on my own personal mod, using the body of the HGG. It works well, but I want an insert for the HGG body. Is this possible? The ink itself only just fits in, and I can't find a way to get an insert in. Help please? tno

Would an RSVP RT grip work as an HGG sub? It's about 0.5 cm longer and it weighs about the same as an HGG grip
-
Date: Mon, May 30 2011 17:13:50
Yes if you're making an mx or any other mod where the grip is on the outside of the pen. However it's a lot thicker than an HGG grip so if it's going into a cap or something, then I'm not sure as that'll probably be more of a hassle than a straight up HGG grip. You can always shorten it slightly too

@PrinceXD but its pretty easy to figure out, besides the middle thing its supertips because look at teh middle picture. you can see the tip of the white body. definitely supertip acutally thinking of trying to make one no idea about the middle part tho its basically a buster with a subbed body
-
Date: Tue, May 31 2011 06:55:27
@Cloud I only thought its M&M cuz of the caps.. they look CTish more than ComSSa-ish focus at where the tips stack onto the cap.. the cap's diameter is larger than the tip if its ComSSa caps then its the other way around.. PrinceXD
-
Date: Tue, May 31 2011 07:09:47
@PrinceXD never had m&m caps but thats true ct caps are the same right? but ct caps fit nicely over st bodies so im still pretty sure its st body so you have any idea about the center piece?
-
Date: Tue, May 31 2011 13:13:41
@Cloud CT caps is identical to M&M caps and if he DID use M&M, then the center piece is 99% probably KT barrel if he used ST, then idk... maybe u could still try using KT barrel besdies... and we wont know if its M&M or ST unless Kam says something about it ;) PrinceXD

I think you need 2 supertips, 2 airfit tips, half grip of an airfit, and a random black grip, bic roundstic Kinda like making a buster but you cut 2 parts of one supertip body (im not sure how long. Probably the same length of a comssa cap) then attach them to both sides using the bic body on where the backplug of the ST was supposed to be. Then put your black grip then airfit grip then airfit tip. (Correct me if im wrong) :) I saw this on supawits facebook. The comments kept on saying that his buster was an ivan mod.

What do you mean by "along there"? if you mean flush with the body, then it is somewhat flush. -

guys let me clarify this, Ivan is a spinner from HKPSA I believe. When peem, saizen, seven etc came to hong kong last year for the chinese new year APM event, Ivan showed peem how to make a variation of the buster that he spins. He cuts 3.5 cm from the front and the back of one supertip, and the back portion goes to the front while the front portion goes to the back of another supertip. Original ivan mod uses dr grip + dr grip tips but he soon replaced it with AF tip and grip. peem likes the mod alot to an extent he nicknames it peem mod 2. Mod is shared across the world and supawit also uses it now. the mod gains popularity in HKPSA and PSH because it no longer needs comssa caps and backplugs. kthxbai

Date: Wed, Jun 1 2011 15:13:18
uhhhhh i wanna clarify that ivan mod used airfit gel tip with dr.grip grip and yes it was originally cut to 3.5 cm but this make the ivan mod shorter den buster so ppl cut abt 3.7~3.8 cm to make it abt same length as buster. ivan didn't replace the dr.grip grip to airfit grip......is those ppl who saw the tutorial think it is a waste that nid to use another pen so they used airfit grip straightly...... and the peem mod 2 was the name given by PSH ppl, not by peem himself becoz less ppl know abt ivan but they saw peem use that mod so they give the name peem mod 2......

@SPRiNGFiELD is very right, listen to him~~ Ivan Mod has the same popularity in PSH/HKPSA/TWPS as Buster. Buster is nicknamed Peem Mod, and Ivan Mod was once nicknamed Peem Mod 2 but no longer. Ivan mod is invented by Ivan from HKPSA and Peem approved its value too. Supawit and Peem still use Buster the most, but most PSH power spinners turn to Ivan Mod since it is cheaper to make and more stable to an extent. Two mods spin slightly differently, no huge difference for most psers other than power spinners. Ivan Mod is significantly different from a VGG ST Mod, so don't compare them together. Its length is adjustable but usually made same as a Buster. FYI, original Ivan Mod uses Dr. Grip grips and Airfit tips, but 99% of people in PSH/TWPS use airfit grips in order to not waste material while getting a more similar feeling with Buster. ^_^ -

-
Date: Thu, Jun 2 2011 01:08:57
I believe that it is 3.5 cm because with the buster, the st body still goes inside the comssa cap a Tad bit. So actually. the body on the buster is shorter than the ivan mod hence the ivan mod needs to have shorter caps. But IMO it depends on your personal preferences :)

I asked on fpsb to find some one to translate my topic from fpsb in english. So there are mistake, but ll will be corrected tomorrow or after. Thanks. Hi everybody! Today I post a complete “How-to” topic on grip cutting. I know that many other people cut grips, so I would like you to take part in this topic to give your tips, and I hope this topic will help lots of people.
1) What is a cut grip?
It consists in cutting pieces of a grip, in order to create abstract or concrete motifs. Cut grip can have different aims: extending the design of a mod, or improving its twirling effect…
2) What are the adapted tools for a good cut grip?
If you want to have a good cut grip, you will necessary need those tools:
1. A X acto knife, which is a “high-accuracy” knife.
In fact it’s a sort of scalpel, which you can find in all the artistic shops, and which is essential for a good cut grip. Why not a simple cutter? Indeed a cutter has a sharpened blade, but is adapted for cutting cardboard for example, and not for cutting grips. A X acto knife costs usually 3 or 4$.
2. Tweezers.
Every civilized man or woman has tweezers at home. Tweezers are very useful to remove little pieces of grip which have already been cut, because if we use our big fingers, it completely destroys the grip…
3. A grip.
Sure. You need a grip.
But which grip?? Lots of pens have grips, but not all the grip are adapted for cut grip.
THE GOOD GRIPS.
- Spoko’s grips: the official grip of all cut grips. It comes from a Polish pen. This grip enables to create various motifs, from the most abstract to the most difficult and concrete one. It has notably a wide surface. However, it is a bit too thick, and it seems to exist in only 5 colours: grey, yellow, orange, light green, and skyblue.

- Impact / impact rt: A good grip, very similar to spoko’s grip, but it only exists in black colour. Less supple than spoko’s grip, it is a bit more difficult to cut, but has perhaps a better final look.
http://nsa07.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810071931373980.jpg
- Uniball knock, or uniball 0,7: an excellent grip from every point of view. It exists in 3 different colours: black, red and blue. It’s a supple and quite thin grip, and made of a good material. It enables very precise and complex cut grips. It’s the grip mainly used for cut grips.
http://nsa07.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810072126984277.jpg
- Uniball signo broad: there’s lots of different colours for this grip, and notably white, which is very attractive. Thin and resistant, its only default is its small size, which doesn’t permit wide motifs.
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810072243627500.jpg
- Criterium: that’s a perfect grip to begin with. Very thin and supple, it is very easy to cut and we can find them in lots of different colours. However, they are often too thin, and they don’t have a “professional” final look.
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810072415702241.jpg
MIDDLE QUALITY GRIPS
- Pilot G2: A quite thick grip, with severall stripes which are bothering, and extremely difficult to cut well. However, this grip has a large panel of colours, and if you cut simple and abstract motif in them, you can obtain a cool overgrip effect (like for the red and black impact MX of kam).
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810073211745180.jpg
- Pentel HGG: this grip is extremely resistant, and we can find it in every colour (pastel, normal, fluorescent…). It’s very easy to cut, but there’s already “motif” on the surface of this grip, so it’s hard to get a good final aesthetic.
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_0908100733593220.jpg
- Uniball Signo dx: Good grips too, similar to the uniball signo broad, and with plenty of colours, but there’s lots of little points at the surface of the grip…
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810073737409391.jpg
- Star gel max / dong-a : Extra-supple and flexible grips but which are rather reserved for cutting rings of grip, because their surface are covered of stripes.
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810074008199989.jpg
GRIPS THAT CAN’T BE USED FOR CUT GRIP
- Dr.grip: a beautiful grip, often used for mods, but NEVER for cut grip!! Made with silicon, 1.5 mm of thickness, cut grips on this grip are really difficult and often ugly… (don’t speak from the challenger to me ><)
http://nsa08.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810074730172702.jpg
- Pentel R.S.V.P.: 0. DON’T USE IT. Completely stiff, it’s impossible to stretch it, or it breaks. Very small, and with a surface similar to the surface of the moon, this grip is the grip of the most famous pen in the world, but shouldn’t be used for cut grips.
http://nsa07.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810075518606776.jpg
- Hyper jell / jimnie… Much too thin in wideness to be well-cut.
http://nsa07.casimages.com/img/2009/08/10/mini_090810075844294294.jpg
- All the other grips that you can find ^^
4. A pen with gel ink: for example, a pentel HGG or a uniball signo broad. Depending on the colour of your grip (dark or light colour), you will use white or black ink colour. This pen is used to draw the pattern of the cut grip. It’s necessary to use gel ink, in order to erase the drawings when the cut grip is finished.
5. A stock barrel that you will never use again. For example, a felt-tipped pen. You will cut the grip on this barrel, so it should not be too thin, or the grip will move and turn, and it shouldn’t be too wide, or it will put out of shape your pattern. The grip must be well-held, but not over-stretched.
6. A little screwdriver or a needle: When we cut the grip, sometimes there are lots of microscopic pieces of grip between the holes of our cut grip. This tool enables to pick out those little pieces of grip, in order to have a perfect cut grip.
Well, now, you have everything to do a great cut grip!
3) Tips for cutting your grip
Okay, you’re ready, everything is done: the grip is ready, the pattern is drawn on the grip, and you have the X acto knife in you hand… Wait, wait! No too fast Here are some pieces of advice for your cutting:
I) Always cut the grip on the top of the barrel, and not on the side of your barrel, because if you slip, all your cut grip will be destroy =/
II) The way you will cut your grip depends on the type of motif that you have to cut. If it’s a big straight line or a curve over 1.5 cm, go go go! But take care not to pull down your knife too much. Cut the line from an extremity to the middle of the line, and then cut from the other extremity and join the two cuts.
III) NEVER FORCE! Forcing is the sign of an imminent massacre of the grip! If you feel a little resistance, the only good decision is to stop cut the grip, to breathe deeply, and to analyse the situation. Change the position of the grip, of the scalpel, and then continue in a cool-headed mood.
IV) For the little line, around 5 mm, use the point of your knife, almost perpendicular with the surface of the grip.
V) You need to hold the scalpel on the blade, and not by the handle, in order to keep your fingers extremely close to the grip, and to limit important slips of the blade.
VI) OMG what a disaster! You have slipped… Don’t worry, breathe, breathe, life is cool, try to make up for you error, and modify the initial pattern in function of the size of the cut.
VII) Try to cut always in the same wise, thereby if you slip, you will not damaged what has already been done.
VIII) BE PATIENT!! A simple cut grip with abstract motif will take almost 20 minutes, a complex motif 1 hour, and a concrete motif (like a bee, a lion, a monkey ^^) between 3 and 5 hours (or more…)
IX) For microscopic cuts (1 mm or less), here is a technique: put the blade of the X acto knife in several locus of the line, in order to punch holes in. After a while, half of the line is cut, so you can lightly pull out with the tweezers the little piece that you want to remove, and you finish to cut as neatly as possible.
X) When the grip around the locus you’re cutting is already “jagged”, don’t forget to hold back the blade with a finger (warning: don’t cut your finger, thank you ><). Thereby, your scalpel has less chance to slip.
XI) When you cut a micro-curve in your grip, put the scalpel orthogonally in the grip but don’t force, and hold it tightly. Then, turn the grip, yes, the grip, not the scalpel, with your other hand, and follow the line of your pattern.
4) Patterns for cut grips.
Two-thirds are already explained for cut grips: one third is you, another third is the grip, and the last third is the motif.
For an abstract cut grip, choose a motif that increases the twirling effect. That is to say straight and polygonal cuts, such as rectangles, parallelograms, or even crosses… You can also do “great jumble” method. I explain you: with the help of your gel ink pen, you can draw lots of geometrical figures that are perfectly juxtaposed, until it doesn’t remain a “hole” in you grip. Then, you suppress or add some lines to obtain a sort of global geometrical motif that looks cool. And then, go cutting my friend!
You can also (and it’s rather a good option) draw the pattern of your grip on a sheet of paper before drawing it on your grip. It spares your grip to become as sketchbook, covered with white (or black) splashes ><. It also enables to have a global vision of your motif. Some simple motifs are really good-looking, like lightning. If you draw some sorts of curves with “commas” and so on, it can be very nice, but you should already be a good grip cutter
Let’s talk about representative motifs, quite complex. The aim here is to draw something concrete on your grip, that you will be able to cut after. First, we can quote the example of the flames that were the first non-abstract motif to be drawn (ayatori mod by Tek). What is the most difficult here is to do a drawing that looks like flames ^^’ The cut is quite accessible.
Then, let’s talk about the real representative motifs… For example: Mr Turtle, Mr Leaf, Wasp mod, Mr Spider, Scorpion kuzu… (photos are coming)). You have to now that you’ll need lot of PATIENCE to succeed in those cut grips.
How to find the idea for your motif?
Personally, I found my inspiration in the creation of origami for beginners. However, all the motifs are not good for cut grips. In origami, if you do a circle with eight legs, everyone will say you that it’s a spider! Nothing more is needed, but if you want to represent an okapi, it becomes lightly harder ^^’ In cut grip, it’s impossible. So you have to choose a drawing that can be easily recognized with minimum of strokes. Let’s take the example of a dauphin.
The aim is to draw it under is most famous angle. We can think of the jump of the dauphin out of the water. The cut grip has to follow those criteria:
- He must be resistant, if you want o spin with it
- He must be linked as much as possible to the rest of the grip, without modifying the drawing.
Here we can link the nose of the dauphin to the top of the grip, its dorsal fin to the side of the grip, and its tail to the lower part of the grip. That’s enough, 3 links are a minimum for a solid grip. Then you have to respect an aesthetic aspect: for the representative cut grip, the portion of grip that you remove must be more important than the portion of grip that remains. So try to remove as much grip as possible. When you have finished one side of you grip, you can do the other part, because for a representative grip, we should see the entire drawing without turning the mod. So think at another drawing for the other side of the grip.
5) Inventory of the main grip patterns
FROM THE RIGHT TO THE LEFT, AND FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM:
1) Dreambaby mod by tek, cut into a uniball knock grip. Difficulty, 3/5, Time needed:30min.
2) New mod by Zw332en, cut into a signo broad grip, difficulty 3,5/5, Time needed, 30 min.
3) Ayatori mod by tek, cut into a uniball knock grip, difficulty 4/5, Time needed, 90 min.
4) Dr tiki by neptune, cut into a criterium grip, difficulty 4/5, Time needed, 90 min.
5) Mr spider by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 4,5/5, Time needed, 120 min.
6) Kuzu mod by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 4/5, Time needed, 60 min.
7) Scorpion kuzu by neptune, cut into a spoko grip, difficulty 4/5, Time needed, 120 min.
8) Wasp mod by neptune, cut into a criterium grip, difficulty 4.5/5, Time needed, 120 min.
9) Mr turtle by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 5/5, Time needed, 180 min.
10) Kuzu mod by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 4/5, Time needed, 120 min.
11) Mr leaf by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 3/5, Time needed, 90 min.
12) Ayatori mod by tek, cut into a knock grip, difficulty 1/5, Time needed 20 min.
13) Ice kuzu by neptune, cut into a spoko grip, difficulty 5/5, Time needed 200 min.
14) Spider cut by neptune, cut into a criterium grip, difficulty 5/5, Time needed 200 min.
15) Target mod by neptune, cut into a criterium grip, difficulty 2/5, Time needed 30 min.
6) How to well-place a grip on the mod?
First, you have to adapt the size of the grip to the wideness of the barrel.
You want to place a cut grip on a barrel, or on other grips that are too wide for it? First, look if your grip is a bit flexible.
WARNING: you should never do the cut grip BEFORE stretching your grip. You need to place your grip on a stock barrel that as the right wideness, and then, you let it on the barrel during one month. Yes, one month. Thus so, the grip will slacken, and will be adapt to its new wideness. After that month only, you will be able to cut your pattern, the grip will be ready.
If you cut your grip before, the thin cut that you will do in your grip will become enormous holes, because the grip will get back its initial tension.
That’s it for the advices by the moment! This part is to be completed...

1st: I did not read the whole tutorial but only the beginning. Imo Spoko is not a good grip cor cuts. It is way to soft and if your x-acto isn't perfectly sharp anymore your cut easily can drag. I prefer Signo Broad and Knocktype. Just perfect grips for me.

Really? It was the opposite for me. I use the method on the tutorial of the Seven mod on the AC cap and I got it flawlessly. I just don't think that CT caps would work because they have larger ridges, but then, I'm not EXACTLY sure. Nonetheless, Dr. Grip tips fit inverted in the caps in some kind of way. -

thanks, thats what i meant. saw is a little too big, so im gonna go with a knife. some dude at my school had an alpha gel, but i didnt really feel the weight of the tip. however, the pen was light enough that i think that alpha gel tips are lighter than dr grip tips. -

On my AC caps the nub came out, but so did part of the cap, lol. Dr, Grip tips will work fine, but they are slightly heavier I believe.

so, in your opinion, is it worth it to get alpha gel tips? theyre pretty expensive. is there a significant difference?
-
Date: Wed, Jun 8 2011 06:24:57
alpha gels are only really if you want an authentic seven (i dont know of any other mod using them) and ifyou're using ac caps anyways, might as well just use drgrip since they're cheaper and a lot easier to find.

same method as you would like cleaning text off any barrel. nail polish remover / cleaning alcohol to clean the colour off the text. eg Miffy pictures, super pirat, text on AC BUT if you're talking about the actual embossed text in the body then here's a tut by Guitrum. [video=youtube;DzaAtX3i8DU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzaAtX3i8DU[/video] Wrap white paper around a barrel/pen and clean the text off using the paper on the barrel/pen and occasionally moving the paper so you're rubbing with a clean side. -

@XiX You could try the bic barrel plus hammer method that is used for ct's and ac's. Just put the cap on a table straight up and put a bic barrel into the top and hit the barrel with a hammer so that it hits down on the nub until it breaks off. But you might crack the reynolds cap. I suggest a drill and sanding rod. Drill and make a hole in the nub and then sand the inside down with the rod.

I usually wrap a few layers of vinyl tape or something along the edge of the barrel in case the file slips or something. It also helps with making the sanding even. I might even use an x acto knife to shave away to make it straight -

i never heard of this pen so I doubt it, maybe add the grip to a mod or something. If it has a metal tip, you can use that somehow too. @Paladin please use this thread next time http://forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=23 moderator please move this thnx -

There really isn't a specific name for each. Some people call a comssa body ct capped mod, a Dr. Comssa. Some reserve that for a comssa body and comssa cap mod. So it really depends on the person. Usually modders will specify what body and caps are used or at least mention they are subbed when they show off their pens. For example: "KT with a Comssa Body". -

I have been wondering, why is the SG grips chosen as the grip for the first Dr. KT? I mean, it's pretty odd that someone would go and find a different grip when the Dr. Grip grips would hold the tips pretty well... Is there something special about the anatomy that makes it hold Dr. Grip tips better? Or is it just simply for aesthetic aspects? And Exactly how many popular so-called Dr. mods are there? Besides Dr. SR, I noticed that they're all pretty much Comssa caps with different bodies (perhaps different grips); is there other ones that are actually creative?
-
Date: Wed, Jun 22 2011 21:52:16
sailor grips were chosen because of the cap. With a cap that wide, you'll need a grip with a bigger circumference: the sailor grip. Profile grip? NO. HGG Grip? NO. Basically any other grip? NO. The only other choice of grips would be dr grip girps, but back then, even the regular Dr.Kt was considered incredibly heavy, so adding dr grip grips would be unpreferred. THere. you have it. Dr. _____ Mods are popluar becoz dr grip tips are BEAST
-
Date: Wed, Jun 22 2011 21:54:05
I doubt anyone knows for sure why RYO chose sailors for his first grips, its probably because he like the effect or he just happened to have those grips on hand. I personally own both a Bonkura KT and a Pink/Skyblue Dr. AC, and i find the spinning effect of the Dr. AC more appealing than the Dr. Grip. Erm, you are realizing Dr. KTs, CTs, ACs, etc do NOT use comssa caps? Basically there is Dr. KT/AC/CT/MM Dr. ST and a bunch of random hybrid mods like Dr. Namae or Dr. comssa.

The spring pushes the ink back into the barrel Without it, the ink can shift freely in the barrel, And you might end up the tip popping in and out while spinning it or even just shaking it up and down PrinceXD

You have to wrap a grip or rubber band around it and twist and pull a lot. If you give up you can use pliers to twist it off but you'll damage the tips.

Instead of having the G3 cap in the back cover the body, you could use Soschie's G3 CYL method with the supertip backplug to attach the cap to the body. It will give you another cm.
-
Date: Wed, Jun 29 2011 22:30:02
@PREDATORNET what nacho said, but first, put the grip on a cheap body, ie bic then cut it like you would cut any other sectioned grip. just sorta roll the blade. make sure its straight though. cut about 1/3 of the grip then take it off and press it down, push down with razor to cut the rest. thats how i do it, it comes out better then just plainly pushing down.
-
Date: Wed, Jun 29 2011 22:55:19
There are no section lines so if you have a steady hand, I suppose that could work. I just go down because it's much more straightforward to do. I have this ruler I use that has a slit running down the middle so it pushes the grip down on the top and bottom and then I can slide the knife down the slit to make my cut. I know if you're just holding down one side it doesn't work very well.
-
Date: Wed, Jun 29 2011 23:01:10
i dunno, i guess i have a steady hand. ive had no problem making 1/3 cuts straight, just not full cuts. i press down on both side, but if the knife is slightly slanted, the grip comes out wrong. thats just my preference based on my experience with cutting dr grips though. just use whichever works.

...lol I'm not Australian, but I'm currently studying in Australia (with all my stock with me... Lol) Australia doesn't give u the best selection in terms of pens used for modding. You're pretty much limited to a small amount of pens (and they cost a lot compared to other countries!!) If you just wanna try out modding, SuperTips, BICs, tinted G2, sunburst (if you're lucky), HGG, airfits, signo broad, lakubo... are some of the most common pens used that's available in Australia (at least in NSW...) But if you're serious in modding and wanna take a step further, PenWish or trade... No choice lol (hint: I have some spare modding parts u might want :P) PrinceXD

lol my key3 also has a crack in its cap >.< i just ignore it cuz it isn't that bad but yeah like drgripable said a tight clear piece of tape will probably look better than glue. also, if it fits with the color scheme, electrical tape works better than clear tape. my seven mod has a crack in it so i used black electrical tape and it looks just fine.

anyone knows of any way where we can erase the pictures on a cartoon comssa barrel, yet retain its original feel? i only know that you can use paper to rub, but the body would feel completely different. rubbing it with acetone after that doesnt bring it much closer to the original feel too, or maybe im just not doing it enough. anyone know of any way? pw comssas feel kinda thinn

i dunno, it seems like doing that would make it even worse, since you have to scratch off the whole layer... I'm not sure if it's possible, why you remove the text, you're removing the outer layer, thus changing the feel of the body.

Wipe it with acetone, or, a gentler chemical, Zippo/lighter fluid. Nail polish is basically acetone, but if the plastic is ABS it will dissolve it. Zippo is safer I reckon. @Cloud -
Date: Thu, Jul 14 2011 03:51:56
You've suggested that several times. I've never used lighter fluid so I can't say how well that works. Acetone and nail polish/remover both damage the barrel slightly, changing the feel a bit. Isn't lighter fluid a bit... uh... flammable?
-
Date: Thu, Jul 14 2011 04:12:56
@Cloud And volatile. Specifically, it's butane.
-
Date: Thu, Jul 14 2011 05:19:19
Uh yeah you might want to include a safety warning when handling that stuff. :/ Acetone is flammable too though lol.

How do you make clean cuts on Dr. Grips? It's easy with grips that have sections, but I can never make a straight cut with Dr. Grip grips and Hyper Jell grips. Yes, I do use an exacto knife. Do you use a ruler for a straight line? Do you put the grip on a barrel? Do you cut the grip straight down?
-
Date: Wed, Jul 20 2011 04:00:52
1) Add tape on the grip and cut in-line with the tape OR 2) Use mini tube cutter and make a cut line on the dr.grip, then while the grip still on the barrel, use xacto and roll the blade over the cut mark. Use gentle force. The longer it takes you to cut a grip the higher chance it comes out clean. PrinceXD

Do you have a nail? You can heat that up on a stove (as long as it's not electric) and the poke the back cap. Or use an x-acto knife to make an incision and then shave the hole out the the knife or a pair of scissors by sticking one blade in and twisting it so it shaves the inside of the back cap. -

if you're talking about how they fit onto the body, you could try sanding a bit of the barrel at the ends so its less tight. just make sure you sand evenly the whole circumference

Would it work if I sanded it down, and if it wasn't tight enough, wrap teflon around it? This way, since teflon is soft, we it will not exert as much pressure on the caps. -
Date: Thu, Jul 21 2011 19:26:44
yeah if you sand it too much, best thing to do is probably wrap teflon around it.

how can i get grips that are too big to fit onto my pen?
-
Date: Fri, Jul 22 2011 06:04:22
@Gezus Depends on what type of grip. But in general, you have to stretch them. I personally like to use needlenose pliers. Stretch a little, turn it, stretch again. Otherwise, it will become all demented. If it's grips like Airfits or Dr. Grip, you have have to push them on.

How do I get grips like G2/Sailor grips off big barrels?
-
Date: Fri, Jul 22 2011 11:48:05
Knife would work. But you would have to be VERY precise and it would take very long. Acetone is the best to remove uch printings. But I don't get the point of removing it? I buy cartoon comssas for the look. If I want to have a white body i prefer Superpirat ;)
-
Date: Fri, Jul 22 2011 15:25:55
@Gezus You can thicken the barrel with some tape (teflon, electrical, scotch, etc.) or try letting them sit in boiling hot water. I don't know if the second method works very well but some people claim it shrinks grips.

No, not at all. I think Drake just misunderstood your question. You should be able to pull the thing that holds the ink on the small cap side out with needlenose pliers. Then just let the ink slide out of the body and remove the tips you write with from the body.

dude ur a pro. could signo tip go inside comssa cap? and what cheat comssa you trying to make? RYO? I thought you said you made one. -

Yeah, i dont plan on making another. but i'm trying to clear up the debate between me and darkt. i'm really not sure what mod he's talking about. Yes signo tips could fit.
-
Date: Mon, Aug 1 2011 04:52:15
I believe there is such thing as a "cheat" comssa which is different from a Ryo Cheat comssa. The former is where you hide tips inside the Comssa caps while the latter is where you put tips over other tips. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Any one else have this problem? When I roll up inserts, the dark ink gets on my fingers and then smears on the lighter portions of the insert. It's annoying and I need to use gloves when I roll them up. Any way around it? Besides getting a laser printer.

How long do you let it dry? If it's not dry enough that may be the problem. Anyways, what does it mean when a pen tapers? I used to think it meant the text is imprinted/carved in the barrel, but.....I'm not so sure now.
-
Date: Thu, Aug 4 2011 03:23:30
tapering for pen barrels means the end diameter is different than the other end diameter, look at a comssa for example, it goes from a larger diameter barrel to a shorter one. its sort of like the barrel getting 'thinner'

-
Date: Fri, Aug 5 2011 00:05:01
this might be because of the amount of grips you used (the inbetween the drgrips) or maybe the amount of glue you used to connect the inktube to. OR like you said the inktube. if you mod something and it doesnt turned out balanced like you want, just do trial and error until it works. @drgripable

-
Date: Sun, Aug 7 2011 18:45:01
i don't really pull, i kinda push. it gets some marks on the grip, but personally, idc. Take the tip off the signo take the inktube out place the signo body on a table so that it is perpendicular to the table take the grip from the very top, and slide your nails between the end of the grip and the body (NOT THE BODY UNDERNEATH THE GRIP) push down until the grip comes over the lip.

-
Date: Sun, Aug 7 2011 19:12:16
Yeah +1 Wonder. You can crack the front piece off with wire cutters or something similar so that there is nothing obstructing the grip from coming off. It won't come off super easily because there probably will be glue between the grip and barrel but it's way easier to pull of this way. The grip will be clean.

So... im just a noob and im not sure if this should be its own thread and im pretty sure its not because i dont want to get banned... but anyway: Do you guys know any of the disadvantages of "dying" Dr. Grip grips with the ink from Sharpies? I've already done one in black which turned out a dark purple and and i noticed that some of the ink can still rub off on your skin, Is this temporary? I dont like having to wash my hands every five minutes one last thing, will silver work or would it be too light to notice and just make your dr grip grip look old?
-
Date: Wed, Aug 10 2011 00:47:55
@xzekle are you dying them or coloring them? theres a big difference. if you just let them soak in ink, you wash it off and the color of the grip will change. if you're coloring them, you're screwed.
-
Date: Wed, Aug 10 2011 00:50:24
I'm pretty sure he's doing Guitrum's dying thing. Have you tried washing the actual grips? Because if the ink washes off of them easily then it's not worth dying them in that ink. You could try out a different ink. And how long has it been since you dyed the grips? Maybe you haven't let them thoroughly dry? I'm not very versed in this so I'm not exactly sure what you should do.
-
Date: Wed, Aug 10 2011 00:58:13
@Nachoaddict but he said from sharpies... he might mean sharpie pens (i've never had these, not sure how the ink is) , but the main sharpie is more like a marker, and you wont get much ink to dye with.
-
Date: Wed, Aug 10 2011 00:59:20
If he's just trying to color them in like you said he's going to have a very tough time. Grips and coloring with markers don't really mix well.

@Cloud So ive got this american Dr grip(didnt want to risk it wit a normal dr grip) that i tested this technique on about 3 days ago, the ink doesnt rub off on my skin when spinning anymore (it did for the first few hours) heres the result
My only worry is that it wont work as well because its thicker -
Date: Fri, Aug 12 2011 01:35:55
That is very very cool. So I take it you just dipped the grip in some kind of ink overnight right? And what kind of ink did you use? I want to try this out for myself after seeing the results :D
-
Date: Fri, Aug 12 2011 03:04:09
@Nachoaddict Basically, but you may want to note that simply squeezing the sharpie(permanent marker) inktube wont give any ink, I held it vertical and poured just enough water inside a small bottle and then submerged the grip anyway, what I'm actually trying to do is replicate that old used Dr Grip grip look where it starts to become opaque and in effect kind of white-ish, so i was wondering if instead of simply spinning until it got really old i could use the same technique but with a silver sharpie? Lemme know what you guys think :]

@xzekle So, I was thinking about this for a while. I did this once too. But the thing is, the texture of the Japanese Dr Grip grip and American are really different, it could change how the ink is absorbed so the color might not be the same. ------------ Whats the best profile grip section for a signo tipped emboss mod? I've tried a bunch of them, they don't hold really well :/ or are there any better grips to hold the signo in? Edit: nvm, i asked imatt, a little tape + g2 grips (2 rings) works perfectly.

@iFengo You already posted in the other thread about these pens, no need to make a whole new thread for this. If you plan on making a proper mod, check the UPSB Wiki or the tutorials on UPSB. If you want to make a personal mod, just stick parts together, make it balanced and spinnable. I've seen those before, they seem to be Bic subs, though not as nice. You could double cap it, add on some grips or tips that fit and you're set.

They are slightly fatter (i think) and they are longer. But it won't really make any difference to the Toro mx, using G2 just shows less of the Hi-tec C tip, which i think is uglier, just my opinion.

Parts need for Toro MX: RSVP body (Moonz/Color/Normal) Hi-Tec-C tip [B]Super grip[/B] *Note* you can sub this with a g2 grip but it would feel and look weird as g2s are shorter and bigger. Grip is not flush with body and Hi-Tec-C tip is not covered so completely (up the flat area) 1. Remove RSVP grip stick it into cap 2. drill a hole in backplug 3. Put insert + reverse ink 4. Slide Supergrip into RSVP Front area (File bumps if u feel like it.) 5. Put some teflon tape on the tip and screw Hi-Tec C tip on. ( I prefer Teflon tape as it creates the screw area to screw the tip in but u can use any other methods u want. Yea.. tell me if i left out anything and Hope this helps :)

@DArKT I cut supertip bodies by using an x-acto knife. I first put a strip of tape to the side of where i want to cut. Then I press the xacto knife where i want to cut (and beside the tape) and press down while rolling the supertip body. After a few times around, then the supertip just snaps off.

Alternative is to pull out the ink tip from the front and shove or ram a chopstick down the front hole so it pushes against the ink cartridge and pushes the supertip backplug out the back hole. You might have to make the front hole bigger. Widen it I mean.

I think the weight of a Hi-Tec C tip is similar to a G1 tip. It's just pure assumption though. How do I extract tips from Comssa caps? I want to experiment with different weights and I want to be able to put them in and take them out again. And how do I empty a Comssa barrel?

for tips rubberban, wrap around the tip and pull it out. or wrap tape and try screwin it out with fingers or plyers for empty barrle u can use hands to take off hte bak plug and marker tip or use plyers scissors can also work for the tip then dump the barrle out -

Try this: Cut off the tip of the nub or remove as much plastic as you can from the nub piece (Just pull as much as you can out with a pair of needlenose pliers. Of course you have to make a hole in the nub first). There are small connecting pieces of plastic that link the nub to the side of the cap. Take an x-acto knife and carefully insert it between the connector pieces and cut through them as best you can. Once you have dismantled all the connector pieces of plastic, you should be able to push the nub out of the cap and then use scissors scrape out the inside and finish the job. Be very careful though. A couple times the knife slipped and I got cuts on my thumb :s -

-
Date: Wed, Aug 31 2011 23:58:27
@Flarion not sure why you cant use hot water, its the easiest method for me... 2 ways. 1. pull it off. use your nails, rubberband/rubber pad for grip, pull until it comes off. really hard, may damage the grip with your nails. 2. crush the barrel underneath, cut off the front part, extract the broken insides, then slide the grip off. careful or you might cut the grip with the broken pen barrel.

@Explosion101 you just prolly made it badly, when i drop it, nothing happens. its actually really hard to get the tip and back off... the tip, you have to sand the g2 front nicely. if its too loose, redo it. the back... add tape?
-
Date: Thu, Sep 1 2011 23:18:36
if the back pops off when you drop its cause you either didn't use enough or strong enough tape, or the back part of the g2 is too short so the inktube set thingy pushs on the back with more pressure. You could just shorten the inktubes if you wanted, but thats more trial and error.

Do you guys mean to tell me that you actually managed to shove that gripmatic grip and tip package into the G3 cap? ._. I found it impossible so I ended up just putting the GM tip in first and then the grip with insert and then I pushed the G3 tip into the grip so it would be hidden.

How do you remove the inktube in bellcolor? i have searched around and i cant find anything i remember someone asked this before and some say that it would work by pulling it out with pliers. i tried that and it dint work for me. There were lots of scratches on the backplug. Some people said cut it off. so i cut off the destroyed backplug and still dint get in... found that the backplugs are similar to comssa but (glued) stuck onto the bellcolor? Its really irritating with the ratting inktube inside the barrel. Or can you stop the inktube from rattling?

Yeah, Bellcolors are a pain to get the ink out of, The backplugs break often. What the hell is a Japanese VP? Every single Japanese PS vid i've seen with "VP" in it, it's just an mx, but then i see Colin with his needlepoint inktube in the RSVP body, and i'm like o_O

VP is often used in place of RSVP. I'm not sure what else it's used for. For example a Lost RSVP MX could be referred to as a Lost VP Mod.

I don't. I don't see people buying or using their parts to make this, especially if they can use those parts to make another mod. Frankly, it doesn't look very nice, as the rings on the caps and the tape (or whatever it is) on the body also take away from the mod. (IMO) The spinning space also seems very short. it's up to you, but I'm not going to support the making of the tutorial.

Does anyone have a fix for the fragility of plastic G3 caps in SEVEN mods? I don't have this issue with other G3 mods (kUzu, Coulomb, etc.). After some time of use, from dropping and what not, my G3 caps become cracked--when they get cracked, they are unable to hold the grip on the threads of the G3 barrel. I have tried crazy-gluing the cracks from the outside of the tip, but they eventually open up again. I have also tried wrapping tape around the barrel/tip in order to provide stability, but this generally is a futile attempt. I ultimately wind up having to glue the cap to the threads of the barrel, but then I am stuck with the problems associated with such a method. Does anyone have guidance on what to do with this conundrum?

-
Date: Tue, Oct 4 2011 14:52:20
well if you plan on using airfit of drgrip the best tips for that would be dr.grip or airfit. Sounds semi decent as a kt sub with a thinner pirat body

I spin a lot of mod's which uses the STEK body and I notice that the body breaks easily because of the BIC within the ST caps. Anyone have any solutions as to how to modify it more to make it less prone to breaking?
-
Date: Tue, Oct 4 2011 23:40:57
What part of if breaks? the bic body within or the actual Supertip caps?
-
Date: Tue, Oct 4 2011 23:45:13
the ST caps but they break because of the pressure created by the BIC body and the external forces.

Is it OK to stay with using a bictory with added grips?

Uhm if you're asking if it's acceptable by the community to spin that then sure. No one will really get mad at your for spinning a bictory haha

Hi, I'm looking to make a mod that uses both an HGG Grip and RSVP Grip. I want to make a pinkish theme'd mod, so I'm on Penwish, but I can't really see if the color matches. Does anyone here know which Pink HGG (Metallic/Pastel) matches with Pink RSVP (Sunburst/Normal/Colors?) Thanks!
-
Date: Thu, Oct 13 2011 00:48:40
the matching pink is Flouro Pink iirc, it was discontinued a while ago
-
Date: Thu, Oct 13 2011 00:55:51
yeah pw doesn't sell fluro pink but i believe metallic matches with sunburst
-
Date: Thu, Oct 13 2011 00:58:04
metallic matches with the metallic sunburst, but not with the original color
-
Date: Thu, Oct 13 2011 01:08:05
The flouro pink is very close but it's not perfect >< It's a tad brighter than the regular RSVP pink. Other options I think are yellow and silver with either rsvp moonz grip or a grey sunburst grip.

Date: Fri, Oct 14 2011 06:35:43
no you don't, you put not enough grip in the cap. The whole hgg grip, EXCEPT 5 mm of it, must be in the cap ;) the 5 mm are just for holding the hgg tip in the cap, so it doesn't rattle while spinning. so you need a whole hgg grip for the backcap. regards F1r3Fly

You don't have to sand down anything of the Super Pirat for making a minwoo-mod! If you want to remove the ink tube just cut off the ends and push it out. Shouldn't be too hard with a cardboard cutter ;)

Maybe you could heat up the cutter. But you could risk the plastic of the backplug melting and fusing with the body. Saw is the best solution imo. Just go to ace or something

They won't fall off, they're really strong BUT over time when you drop them the metal tends to wear out.
Sort of like that, but on a smaller scale. (**Those are airfit tips)

@Nick2811 It's not as smooth as PC2, and is 0.2cm shorter. Good part is that both caps can replace one another unlike PC2. IMO, it's probably the closest out there. EDIT: As a pen PC is very similar to PC2, not sure about how it's supposed to be like in Saturn PC2.

I have question regarding Penwish rings / any penmod rings in general: Are these rings custom made? Or are there subs that can be bought in bookstores, stationery shops or some kind of specialty shop? [O-rings might be out of the equation since they are a little small and heavy, I guess?] Since I have no way of buying through Penwish, I have difficulty in finding such rings. Closest I have to such rings are the ends of RSVP grips, but it's such a waste to buy one just for that one ring, not to mention the lack of available colors of RSVPs here in PH.
-
Date: Tue, Nov 15 2011 20:18:26
@Boybandista They are produced by penwish factory, no very good subs. RSVP rings are fine but not as flexible. If you are trying to make a Minwoo mod or something, cut anyball grips or SG grips as the "O-ring". Question: What are super lavables for? I heard they were for original S777 MX, but what about stabilo trio caps? Are they basically the same thing or what?

@ lin lavable and stabilo trio both work for s777mx. both are subs for one another. However, that being said the stabilo is slightly more difficult to work with as it takes slightly more modding skills as it is a bit tighter.

any DC mods that doesnt have tip originally (like BICtory and ComSSa) if added tips = metallic BICtory without tips = BICtory BICtory with Signo tips = Metallic BICtory therefore, metallic comssa is tipped, not having a metallic barrel. Frog~

@greenman11 2 Pitt Artist Pen Faber Castell ( 1 Body + 2 Caps ) 2 Flexgrip Plastic or Metal Tip Grips of your choice 1. Cut off the clip of the caps 2. Cut the tip of the barrel and remove the inktube inside 3. Add tape around the front part so the cap stays on the barrel nicely 4. Add the other cap to the end of the barrel 5. Add Flexgrip tips on the caps 6. Add grip of choice to cover the "cutted clip part" Not too hard to understand.. IMO.. Frog~

What should i buy from penwish? 5-6 month spinner. Currently using bictories with grips and plastic tips for one bictory that doesn't add that much momentum at all.

Would advise using a cheap blade. Like those dollar knifes you can buy. It blackens the blade and ruins it. However it works really well, but you have to reheat the blade after each cut because it cools down. And the smell of the plastic burning is nasty. -

Like these:
I can get them for a few dollars for a pack of 2.
Another way to cut plastic barrels to get a worn blade, and puncture holes in a line and just snap the barrel off and file so it's smooth/level.
Any heat source is fine, the stronger the faster it heats up. I used a normal lighter lol

Comssa body is used a a lot of various comssa variations in addition to other mods like stuhl mod, lemon mod, flex mx, etc. If it's the grip placement and you really want it to be "correct", in Minwoo's tutorial, at 3:22, it looks like the first picture. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy44Cs9akeg&feature=player_embedded There is more grip on the cap than on the tip. If you mean how much grip you should use, it says 2.5cm in the tutorial as well. -

Are you talking about getting the backplug out? I always use pliers. Some people seem to have trouble with that method so you can try using a screw and twist it into the backplug and pull really hard. -

Oh wait you're talking about super pirat. I always saw it off to get the ink out. You can leave it in but the ink might leak. I've never seen anyone pull it out with pliers before haha. But if it works then it works lol. Doesn't really matter as long as it doesn't obstruct the other steps of the mod you're making. -

The one on the wiki is correct. You poke a hole through the backplug with a knife. Preferably an X-Acto type thing. Then stick in the pointy end and start turning. Then just widen it until you get the perfect size hole for whatever you're making. -

Hi! So I just registered to this site in order to get some new insight on PS'ing. I'm getting my first real spinning pen, and after reading these forums Metallic Comssa would be the way to go. But because I think I'm going to order few pens and not just one (www.penwish.com), what else I should get? MSXA and RSVP all seem to be fine, but I'm thinking that if they're all pretty much the same I might not want to order those too, I'd like to get maybe one or two pens that do feel different from metallic comssa so I could find the right pen for me. Oh and what do you people actually mean when you talk about "heavy" and "light" pens? I have this pen which I use now and it weights about 8 grams... and It's too light for my taste. Just trying to get some boundaries on what actually does heavy and light mean in grams.
-
Date: Sun, Dec 11 2011 16:51:19
For someone at your level just worry about getting the fundamentals down first, you'll have plenty of time to find "your" mod. An MX is definitely something to try out, a like the MSXA better but thats just me (trust me, big difference between the two). So for now, stick with the metallic comssa, MSXA or MX, you'll find the mod that right for you later on. As for heavy and light, there isnt any set to stone boundaries but its generally anything under 14 grams is a light mod, 14-17 grams is medium, and anything over that is heavy. it is highly recommended that you stick to light mods in the begginning and work your way up in weight, but its all up to you (i started witha light mod, then got a medium mod, the back to light, etc.). Keep practicing and keep trying stuff out and you'll be fine x)

Begginers should stick with light pen mods:) Pen usage is strictly preference. Metal Comssa is great for begginers. Id personally start with with a double sided mod... Its easier to learn the funds as the double sided mods are equally balanced:) So metal comssa is the way to go:) ofcourse my opinion:)

best way is to put the grip on a barrel of some kind and then trace around the grip with a knife while turning the barrel and the rest is just practice. sailors you just cut and trim away the extras

Bic cristal or bic cristal grips do not make good mods at all. They aren't round, you can't attach the inktubes on both sides and the grips are near solid and unmoddable. In the UK, you will be looking for Bic Round Stics or the promotional pens that come through your door that look like them and can be modded in the same way. In the UK, however, I would recommend making a Grip Avaire, ZGMX or a Power Rod (Ask me on how to make these with a PM).

The RSVP cannot be bought in the UK. Trust me. You would have to order through penwish. If you want a writable mod, the ZGMX is a retractable, one sided mod so it is ideal for writing. While you can write with an MX, it is in an awkward position. It is also one of the easiest ones to make, aside from measuring out the retractable mechanism that is, and uses up only two pens to create a ZGMX V1 or V2. It is rather light, but it can be customized with inserts. When looking for mod pens, you can find Signos and Flexgrip in WH Smiths, Jimnie Jels and Z-Grips in tescos. I hear you can find HGGs somewhere, but I'm not sure. If you ever get the chance, serious order parts/mods from penwish, the mods you make/receive from parts there will be of insanely better quality than just the shops in the UK. I would recommend the Metallic comssas and the Dr Comssa on penwish (NOTE: The Dr Comssa on penwish is not a REAL Dr. Comssa, it is a metallic comssa with Dr grip grips so it retains the lightness of the comssa and make it very easy to perform wipers. For learning, a metallic comssa or signo tipped bictory is the best. They are evenly weighted and light enough to build finger dexterity while having enough momentum and length to allow you to perform harder tricks. Oh, you can write with a comssa too.

@CheezWhiz And take your time with cutting the grip, cutting a little bit at a time before you get all the way through the thickness of the grip will substantially improve how clean the cut will be.

What i do is i cut the backcap by 1-2mm so there's a hole in the middle of it, then i just use pliers to pull them out. -
Date: Sat, Dec 31 2011 05:28:58
@Chobi Use pliers. Grip with the pliers on the part of the back cap closest to the body and twist and pull/pry at an angle (not too much or the back cap will break off). Some times the back cap will come off within seconds, and other times it's matter of continuous twisting and pulling over a number of days to loosen and finally remove (Took me a month of twisting and pulling every few days for a few minutes one time). If you don't care if the back cap gets ruin just pry/pull at an angle till it breaks. you will end up with part of the back cap in the body (sometimes it is very hard to take out). Remove the piece with some crazy method (not fun).

It's basically a really long DC Comssa. I'm sure you'd know how heavy that would be. Adding Airfit tips and grips would be overkill. It's long enough already. -

I cut my barrels with wire cutters and then use a knife and sand paper to make the cuts cleaner. As for the playcolor2 barrel. The paper method should work on lighter color barrels like yellow however if you have a dark color barrel, it will smear the logo and will look awful >< I can't think of anything else you can try besides using acetone. -

Create a hole in the nub of the cap. Then stick a blade (point in) into the barrel hole and twist it so the blade scrapes the inside of the barrel. Or just one of the scissor blades.

Do you believe it looks better with a longer section of clip (-Per Jell) or do you usually have that because it is easier than to removing the entire transparent part of the clip? -
Date: Mon, Jan 16 2012 01:13:15
@Advecticity if you did attempt to try cutting at the colored part....... compare the labour AND the aesthetics to the "normal" method. you'll instantly see the difference. but if you dont wanna try... its ugly, leaves a bump on the cap that doesnt look like a clip or anything and its much harder to cut too. people keep a small section of the clip to make it resemble a pen but not blocking the whole section for spinning purpose.

A dr grip grip from pw might be a little heavier than a regular one. A minwoo mod is about 20.8 cm, so if it's shorter, it will tend to FEEL heavier. Is the ink from the super pirate empty? Maybe it's that... Or the grip. -

I think it's the thin body that makes it feel so heavy. It seems heavier than a buster xD but maybe because the buster has a supertip body. Imagine a buster on a ballsign body :P -

I cut the blue back plug off but I still se an ink tube in it. If this blue ink tube needs to come out, how much do I cut off the back part, what is the total length of the proper cut pirat body alone. I think this could be the problem because the whole mod measures 21.5cm. Not sure???? I think Penz3160 got it? -

According to the tutorial, just cut or saw off the blue backplug. The ink should fall out afterwards.

yeah the ink nub is adds a decent weight to the pirat body. To take the ink out just use a knife to cut awa st the blue part still in the back of the pirat body and then try to use a small pair or pliers and you pull it out. oh btw your ink doesnt rattle in the body? o-0 -

nah, don't cut the body - it'll make it shorter. Just get an x-acto and then sorta spin the blue part on the blade and the glue seal should break off. -

Question1:izit fluoro sailor from duraflashes? Question2:izit BiC GL2 grip same as spoko grip? Question3:where to cut hyperjell antique(clip)?i used it for ayatori mod hahax
-
Date: Thu, Jan 26 2012 15:47:11
1.: No. Duraflashes aren't completely opaque and need white tape beneath to look as flashing. 2.: No. The BIC grip is thinner, harder and not as flexible. 3.: Cut the Clip the same way as you cut all Hyperjells. Most people keep it that long that the rest says "per Jell", because shortening it any further is too much effort.

No. Most times you use the metal tips and sometimes the grips (Broad, DX, Impact RT). There is a special version of the 207 with a very squishy grip, but nobody used it for modding, because it's even too expensive for that (it costs less to use a Dr. Grip Grip).

The whole ink? I pulled the backplug out, ran water though the body until most of the ink was gone and then slammed the tip against the bottom of the sink, loosening the inside tube and pushing it up so it could fall out. Then I took a small metal rod and pushed the tip out backwards into the body of the pen and let that fall out. The backplug is easy, just use your teeth or pliers. Makes no difference and it is always covered up by a cap so a couple of indent marks won't matter.

Date: Sun, Feb 5 2012 00:20:31
I'm new to pen spinning, and I'm interested in the waterfall penmod. Around how long should I continuously be penspinning to be at an experience level good enough for the waterfall mod (What level of penspinning is it for)? I'm currently using a bictory with grips and tips at the end. Planning on making a RSVP MX. Also should I use a RSVP MX or Metallic Comssa. Tricks: I currently can do the sonic (23-12, 34-23), Thumbaround, charge(12,23) and Twisted sonic(23-12,34-23). I'm trying to learn the reverse thumbaround and can do the fingerpass but not very quickly. What should I learn next? Thanks in advance:grin:
-
Date: Sun, Feb 5 2012 00:27:05
yeah if i were you I would move straight to waterfall. TO learn new tricks. remember you are ready whenever you FEEL ready. bictory will just slow you down. metallic comssa is better because it's balanced. I remember when I first make RSVP mx. it's so hard to do bakfall even though i already master it. good luck

That's pretty heavy, though I do have that mod myself. I would recommend making sure you spin your metallic comssa until it feels fine again, spinning a heavier mod too much makes it harder to go back down to a lighter mod. -

Take a paperclip and heat it on a gas stove or something else. Then when it's hot, push it through the top of the cap so you create a hole in the top. Do not go through the ball though. Then cool off the paperclip and stick it back into the hole you just made and push the ball out.

I would be better to buy neon or colored parts or clear versions of the mod. Flying panda and waterfall parts come in many colors. -

Buying colored parts would include high shipping costs though. There is no good way to manually add color to penmods? -

G-Specs have 2 grips, one outer (cloudy clear) and one inner (white) The inner one is what you use.. its pretty thick and soft.. also heavier than white signo broad.. hence not ideal to sub it For grips on the cap.. Ideal length. So what is ideal length you may ask.. For me I would say 1~2cm.. Your choice really, since it never got specified. Frog~

if you have an emboss pen you can slide them on the small cap all the way to the big cap. if you dont, you can pull on the opisite sides with great force. or put some water on the commsa cap and on the inside of the sailor grip -

Put the grip on a closed needle nose plier and gentle pull the handle. They stretch fast so don't use a lot of force. You can use for any grip! -

Metal SG Comssa already uses HGG tips, so it wouldn't make any sense to change it to another HGG tip.

Date: Tue, Mar 27 2012 18:27:47
1) spin a lot of mods prior to designing your personal mod get a feel of how different popular mods spins and feels first. they're popular for a reason. 2) have a understanding of what you actually seek within a mod weight? length? barrel width? 3) research, if it has been done before you dont want to mod an ep comssa, only knowing that its actually done before 4) use unique parts, to avoid clashing ideas add in a few rare parts or uncommonly used parts to distinguish your personal mod from others 5) buy a lot of extra parts to further improve your personal mod dont stick to one mod.. it changes as you progress your penspinning life. you might end up learning power tricks after 2yrs of designing your personal mod and just realized its too light. find the perfect balance that suits your style. 6) trial and error, use extra parts to tweak minor adjustments maybe the only thing stopping your personal mod being perfect for you is another piece of anyball grip. dont be afraid of trying new stuffs until you're 100% satisfied. 7) have a lot of money. if you are not willing to spend money on designing a personal mod, stick with the common ones then.

@Nashi, I also don't like SC mods, which really brings down the customizability of custom mods. Basically, you need to have a lot of parts laying around and combine them in unique ways... For someone like Penwish, it is easy to make custom mods. He has a lot of modding experience and all of the parts you could want. If you don't have parts, then look at EVERYTHING on penwish.com and think of one in your head. Then order the parts plus some extra.
-
Date: Tue, Mar 27 2012 20:09:16
I dont think that SC mods bring down the customizability of custom mods. If you take all DC and SC mod possibilities they will be more than just one kind right? Also SC mods can be easily made unique by using different kinds of caps. Most of the time only Hyperjell or Jimnie caps are used, but there are a lot of other caps that can be used. You just have to find them. (sun)

from my experience the length of the comssa backplug does affect balance cutting some off would improve the balance.

@DoubleBlackDB Just wrap some tape around your Dr.Grip and cut along the line like you cut a Sailor, or Anyball. Make sure the line is straight before you start cutting and always place the Dr.Grip on a thicker body (Hgg works just fine) to make sure it won't shift while cutting!

Living in the U.S. you should be able to find RSVP RT pens, which has a longer RSVP grip that can sub as hgg grip. Then I have also found pens that have tips identical to hggs, but that have no grip. Instead of stealing, ask the person who owns it if they are willing to sell it, then make an offer. -

I never used guitrum's way to cut G2 barrels because it requires so much force and personally i think its risky. If i were you, i would just invest in a mini tube cutter (which u can get in bunnings) Guitrum's method wont cut g3 barrels nicely because its different type of plastic as the plastic used for G3 will crack easily, and the edges will have these white flakes Mini tube cutter will work, but u will need to cut like 0.2cm more than needed and slowly sand down.

Use paper method to get text off. Acetone doesn't work. Just stuff the cap on. Requires a little force. Careful not to break the cap though. -

I have this problem with electrical tapes on mods. Of course when it's just been put on, it doesn't bother me at all, but after some time, the tape's end [usually at the end's corners] slightly comes off, thus giving that part of the mod a rough feel.

I think Those are the correct super tips markers. Right, take some pliers and remove the writing tips, but don't cut the barrel. Then use superglue or take a lighter and melt some wax and apply over the holes where the tips were. I recommend wax as it will seal in seconds. Then replace caps and spin. I'd recommend just cutting the front off (The front is better to cut off, the backplug isn't quite long enough to let the inktubes out as easily.) and then pulling the damn inktubes out. -

@M-B-W so you want the WHOLE clip section gone (i.e. looking like a g3 cap right?) you want to use a blade, sharp, but a lot more heavy duty then an x-acto knife. use that to carve off the nub. but you will have to use sand paper and a flame to smooth it out tho.

any kind of blade that is nice and strong would work, go down to a hardware store and look for a small saw or a large knife. flame isnt really required, but it helps make it smoother. sandpaper works just fine. -

Superglue is very brashly when dried, hot glue doesn't! Anyways: You won't need glue for a F1r3fly-G3 even though it is used in the tutorial! Just let the Dr.Grip grip lap over the body and put the GM-tip into it! I advice you not to use glue because you won't be able to disassemble the mod when you're not satisfied with it anymore! @Xylem

Canadian? Well, japanese, american, and french have different tips and grips. The japanese tips are a little smaller than american, and french is almost alike to japanese. As for grips, i think japan and french are the same, american is more soft and cloudy. Japanese and french are recommended more. (the weights of the tips should be the same, length of american grips is different from others.) (Pw dr grips, are similar to japanese.) Hope that helps ^^ -

@SuperVValrus Get a thicker grip? Where to get them? Z-grip and g2 in Walmart are Best because it's cheap and thick. However, it kind of short for a gripcut. If you can get RT impact signo, then I would recommend that. Just practice with cheapass grip first then move on to better grip because you most likely to mess up at first cut.

Loosen the grip with tweezers by sliding them all the way between the body and the grip and move them in a circular motion around the barrel. Then, pull it off or keep going.

How do you declip a g3 cap totally and how do you remove the g3 backplug. And my insert is stuck in my RSVP mx body. Is there any thing I can do??
-
Date: Tue, Jun 26 2012 16:38:09
Remove G3 Clip: Pull off the colored piece. Remove the bump with whatever you have access to. I use plastic cutter. Use hobby knife to trim off excess. Do not use sand paper. Remove G3 Backplug: Get RSVP inktube. Twist off front tip and insert inktube in, writing tip first. Push the inktube with the assist of flat surface like a table. Pop backplug out. Insert stuck in RSVP: Get tweezers and hold onto part of the insert. Pull. Frog~

I ended up pulling the back plug completely out and just taking the ink out. Warning to anyone who does this: you might deform the back plug while pulling it out! Thanks Froggy.

Poke through the cap with a hot needle (use a candle, lighter, whatever). You can get rid of the remaining clip even by using nail clippers, so it's not that hard.
-
Date: Tue, Jun 26 2012 18:56:00
Stiff enough wire can also be used to get the ball out of the RSVP And use a wire cutter or something to just make a crude cut, then use sandpaper/files to smooth it down

Yes the 'cyl' means Crayola and I don't understand what you mean by 'different mods to the buster' unless you're asking what 'Buster' means.
-
Date: Wed, Jun 27 2012 12:09:33
the "Buster" and "Buster Cyl" are the same mod far as I know and like he said the cyl is for crayola, also there are a few variations but they're usually personal mods so technically there's just one and there are other mods that visually look similar to the Buster but are completely different mods

@Apocalyptic Shadows honestly you dont need a hot needle, just push the needle through the little dimple at the end of the rsvp cap. get the g3 tip, push it into the plug, opening side down, tap it on the table, hard enough to knock the tip, and the plug down. Moist kleenex and dude.....you couldve invested the time to figure all this out yourself.....

you can if you want. you need to cut off the front tip hollow it out and put backplub in front and back of kearing. then you can buster it up. It really depends if you want more of the miffy feel or the supertip feel.

if you are very skilled. and i mean VERY Skilled you can file down the nubs and then use a toothpick/paper clip to slide grip off. I've done it once and took me like 15 minutes to do it cleanly. i would not recommend it. Has very few uses

You don't need the whole grip. I only keep the part of the grip above the nubs. To same some time i cut one time around right above the nubs and then remove the lower half of the grip cutting it off vertically. This way you have easy access to slide something under the grip and remove it from the body. I hope u understand that just now. I sound horrible o.O I'm sorry ^^

yes turpentine is a bit more dangerous than acetone. Only stupid people with limited science knowledge would use turpentine over 100% acetone.

As an organic solvent, its vapor can irritate the skin and eyes, damage the lungs and respiratory system, as well as the central nervous system when inhaled, and cause renal failure when ingested, among other things. Being combustible, it also poses a fire hazard. From Wikipedia. Frog~

Hi everyone, I'm trying to make a kUzu G3 mod and I have a problem with the cap : I have put the Signo tip inside of the Hyperjell cap and now I try to put the Hyperjell grip with the Hi-tec-C and HGG tip together, but it's too big.
You can see a line (or not. lol iphone 3G), and it's impossible to push more. I've seen a lot of pictures of this mod and the grip is supposed to go to the Signo tip, and it seems like there's nothing inside of the grip (no bumps).
Am I doing it wrong ? Thanks. -
Date: Tue, Aug 7 2012 19:31:56
@Owumaro You'll need to SERIOUSLY push hard to get the whole package into the cap. Try using the back of the G3 to push the package in. Or I guess you could try this? Place the grip in boiled water for roughly 5minutes, before trying. This will make the grip softer, making it easier to push in. There will be some clouding on the cap, which is actually natural. Here's mine, incase you're wonering:
Good luck <3

Thanks for the answer ! I pushed really hard and it worked perfectly.
-
Date: Tue, Aug 7 2012 20:45:32
you could also put the hi-tec-c and hgg tips at the other side of the grip. Like the HGR tip in Mesi G3. I made it that way.

The inktube of my RSVP MX recently exploded and now my white HGG grip got stained red. I ran it under hot water and rubbed it profusely for a while, but there's still a tint of red on the grip and it just looks bad. Is there a way to make it white as it was originally?

I don't think it should affect the strength as it is so minor and it is basically a result of quick manufacturing. Nothing you can really do about it. -
Date: Mon, Aug 27 2012 16:18:11
The difference in the ridges is probably due to tolerance in mass production.

But the difference is pretty great: the ones with smaller ridges make the cap slip on easily, but the others need a significant amount of force (to push it in until the cap meets the rsvp body)

I got 2 S777 mx with stabilo trio caps. If you use the small ones you just have to be careful when putting them on the body. After that they hold pretty well. The big ones are not very good subs, because you can't push them in far enough without the cap cracking. -

Lately my Dr. Grip grip on my Waterfall mod has been getting dusty. I tried rubbing it out with water/cleansing alcohol/peroxide but there seems no way the dust wont go away. Just wondering if anyone has a "remedy" for cleaning a clear Dr. Grip grip. :help::mods:
-
Date: Sat, Sep 15 2012 13:01:41
Most everyone suffers from the epidemic of dusty grips. This is particularly bad with airfit, and dr. grips. Normally i will just wash the grip with simple water and soap, but its sound like from what you are saying, that isn't appearing to work. after a long time of use, your dr. grip will "fog" up causing it not to be as clear. this is not due to dust this just happens when you break in your grip. Any ways, what i normally due to prevent the grip from becoming dusty in the first place is simply rub any dust off with my finger anytime i drop it on a dirty floor (such as the floor on my school). I finds that this normally solves the problem. best regards, iod

Apocalyptic Shadows, if you haven't already removed the ink you could just cut the tip of the bellcolor off (step 1 in the yelo mod tutorial) and then just use pliers to take out the ink. That way you don't have to risk messing up your backplug.

if the cap is too tight you have to be patient and gentle. Don't just go and ram it in like some rapist, let it glide in softly. first the very tip then proceed putting in another bit then another and repeat pushing gently untill it's in far enough. And lube lube lube. The key is lube. And before I forget: don't forget lube. :trollface: If you comprehend my implications.

it has a crack on the opposite side of where we put the tips. then in time it became bigger which made the cap loose -

Specifically, this is a Peem Buster. It is white supertip, white commsa caps. Comssa caps are: Blue anyball, metal airfit ring, 3/4 airfit grip (regular buster uses 1/2), airfit tip, anyball grip on top of the tip and under the airfit grip. -

I searched on Google before asking and the result didn't work, so here goes! :D I accidentally pushed in the RSVP grip too far on a RSVP MX (bought from penwish, looks like it uses some kind of oil to get it in??) and I can't get it out. Someone suggested to put in the unmodded RSVP into and pull, but that didn't work at all. As for tweezers, I can get a hold on the grip, but no grip on it (when I pull, it won't budge... kinda like, slides off).

Try using needlenose pliers and stick one side into the cap, pushing the grip against the inside of the cap, and slowly slide it out.

Well, if you're desperately desperate, and have one or two spare comssa caps, you can crack the comssa cap(s) with a pliers until you can easily remove the HGG tip. Sorry, that was a lame idea, but it's the only way I know of. I'll follow up if I think of some other way. -

To remove the inktube: unscrew the "grip" and whatever else is on the front, you should be able to twist the inktube and pull it out, it's pretty easy to do. But one thing, I've got a G-301 apparently, so this isn't guarenteed to work with an F-301 but just try it, it's probably going to work. If the F-301 is a mechanical pencil, then I have no idea. As for the mechanism, I'm 95% sure it's sealed in and unremoveable. -

What's the removeable part? If it's one of the caps (I'm assuming you bought a premade Buster), just add tape to where it connects to the supertip body. -

The way I do it is to just grab a razor blade NOT an x-acto knife, razor blades are 100x easier and x-acto knifes don't even make smooth cuts (spoken out of experience, I've ruinned 2 or 3 Dr. Grip grips trying to make a proper 1 cm cut). So grab a razor blade, line it up with the area of the grip you want to cut, pray, and just slice down. It doesn't always work, and I recommend you use advice from @Nachoaddict's grip cutting tutorial. This tutorial covers how to cut clean section and sectionless grips.

To make it writeable just insert any pen inktube instead of native inktube and fix it. IIRC Dong-A has cool korean writing on pen, computer sign pen hasn't. -

Date: Fri, Dec 21 2012 22:28:13
1. Metal comssas are too light. 2. If you just put in an inktube, it will rattle around. Hollow out the front and put in a G2 inktube (cut it appropriately or lengthen it, I haven't done this before) 3. You could take a bic inktube and wrap some tape around the back, cut off the very front tip of the comssa, widen it, and put the inktube in. If the tape is the right size it will stick in the backcap and keep it from rattling very much. 4. All writable mods rattle a bit (to my knowledge) 5. Retractable comssas are a piece of cake, or you could try my twistable metal comssa

Somehow put an inktube on both sides? You can make a double-sided marker, or a marker-pen/pencil double-sided comssa. Or, just make one side write, and put some metal tip(s) or something on the non-writeable side to match the ink tip's weight. -

Whenever I get something, especially tips, stuck in any cap I dig a pair of safety scissors as deep as it can go then twist and pull. If that doesn't work, I'd go for an ear-cleaner, then a nail/screw. -

I've never used acetone, so idk if that would work. But my only conclusion is that you need to spin the RSVP body for a while until the print gets weaker, then rubbing alchohol will remove the print in seconds. I don't think you can remove brand-new RSVP print without spinning the barrel for a while, unless acetone works. -

No, I meant that if you buy a brand new RSVP the print is possibly impossible to remove. Rubbing alchohol works perfectly on an RSVP body if you spin with it for a while. -

A signo tip is much wider, I don't have the exact measurements but I've used both and signos are way wider, and quite a bit heavier too. Dunno if signo tips screw into a comssa cap, but if they don't you can just fit the tip into a grip and slide that onto the comssa cap. -

1) Go up to the third floor of any buiding 2) Stretch out your hand while holding the Dr grip pen. 3) Let the tip of the dr grip pen face the ground 4) Drop it. I will be there to pick up the dr grip because you dont know how to treasure it D:

Whenever I need to remove backplugs w/o ruining them, I use pliers BUT I first cover the backplug with a towel or something first so the pliers doesn't scar up the plug. To connect barrels, I use number 2 pencils, but the connection thing depends on how wide the barrel is. -

-

I bought the materials for a retractable comssa, and I put it together, but there's two problems: 1. The cap on the side with the pen tip has so much tension on it it flies off if I don't tape or tie it down. 2. The cap on the back side is higher up than the 'button' part, and so the part where you push is below the cap level, even if I try to push on the cap tight. Any solutions?

@Neph it will require a lot of tinkering... It took me ~1.5 hours and i am really good at these things. find a way to make the clicker and tip part longer the front cap itself should have no tension on it at all... the spring should be inside the body and the hole in the front of the comssa body should be large enough for the inktube to go through but not the spring. Unlike most normal pens, the spring is farther back on the inktube. Some mods, like @vore-tex 's RT waterfall do have the spring in the cap, but in my opinion that is not a very good way to do it because it requires a lot of tinkering to get the cap on firmly enough. Unfortunately if you have made the hole in the front of the comssa body too large then it is going to be hard to get it to work. Hope I was helpful edit: lot of first timers try the RT comssa, and it is harder than it might seem. To K4S credit, he did warn you does anyone know of a white singo dx grip sub (for seven G3) besides pastel color?

Not sure about the modrod evo, but according to the wiki, Buster CYL: Length: 21 - 22 CM Weight: ~ 20 grams COG = COP RT Comssa (K4S): Length: 19.9cm COG: 0.2cm from COP, towards the front Weight: Slightly greater than a Comssa metallic To remedy the COG problem, either use a bit of tissue or an extra ring on the front cap -

Date: Wed, Mar 13 2013 02:52:04
@Neph 1. If you drilled the hole too big than you can probably find a hot glue solution. 2. A buster CYL is very, very heavy. It is only good for power tricks and will ruin your style if you use one constantly (with exception to VGG). 3. If you lost one of the clicker parts, buy a new pen. No mods except for one overly complicated one make their own clicker pieces. sorry.

You can always use tape as a substitute for teflon. Wrap some over the plastic of the rsvp tip then screw on the hgg tip on top and turn it tightly. It shold work (well for me) XD or you can use a glue gun =) -

Date: Sat, Mar 23 2013 01:54:05
you all need to identify when its the right time to use each material to be straight up honest, i'll give this an easy explaination when to use tele. tape: example when your cap flies off and it just needs a slight adjustment but yet can barely hold on the the mod to stay together when to use sticky tack: example if you really need tips to stay on a body such as mx. use a little bit of sticky tack on rsvp tip then put on hgg tip. another example, making a kuzu mod while modding you dont want to use superglue; use sticky tac BUT remember this you MUST identify the fact that yes sticky tack WILL add a bit of extra weight so assuming so add some on the cap's tips inside and try your best to use the SAME amount. this generally will make taking that mod apart a tiny mess but the good side is it wont ruin your tips grips ect. when to use tape: when you REALLY have to thicken a side by alot to hold something on to its right circumfrence. example like when making a buster cyl you COULD use alot of tele. tape but instead the order is tele. tape then tape over it as the tutorial says. this shows thay tape should and typically is best used for when you need to thicken 1 or more sides for the correct circumfrence to hold the cap ect. ect. a quick side note is this; i personally like to avoid using tape because it tends to throw off the cog of the pen when you spin it. this is a personal experience, if you find no problem using alot of tape then alright im just putting out my opinion on this. i hope this helps sorry for the ton of reading for each material

Grab a 0.5 or 0.7 mm piece of graphite that fits your dr grip mechanical pencil, and stick the graphite into the tip of the dr grip pen. Hopefully, the piece of graphite should come out, otherwise, you've probably dented the tip. -

Lucid wrote: Is there any way to get graphite out of a dr grip tip if its "clogging" it?
Happens to me all the time. Screw the tip back onto the pencil, keep shaking the pencil as hard as you can, run some sink water onto it (run it to the point where it's between little and not so little, when it shoots with most velocity). Try plunging it out with Q-tips, or just blast it with a water hose at full power. Sticking more graphite into the tip does not work for me at all, just cracks the graphite and gets more graphite stuck in the tip. And by graphite, i'm assuming we mean pencil lead, as I'm pretty sure lead-stuck-in-tip is a common problem amonst mechanical pencil owners. -

How do you remove a Kearing/Miffy backplug without harming the backplug =O I have a Kearing marker, but can't really get it out.

Date: Sat, Mar 30 2013 04:00:27
@Oow I wonder why you would want to use the backplug again... Just sub in a comssa backplug to attach caps. I usually use a pair of pliers, but that damages the backplug slightly. Anyway, you could probably wrap the end in cloth, take out the felt marker tip, and stick something in through the inktube and push out the backplug. The problems with this method are 1. Ink will get everywhere. Solution: wrap the marker in cloth (like an old sock). 2. There might be some damage to the part of the backplug that extends into the body. Solution: NO.

Blu tack, or you could do what I did when my RSVP tip broke OFF. Cut the front off a HGG, scree the tip on, cut off the front of the RSVP, tape up am.inktube and place it inside, to hold them together, then tape to prevent slipping. Sturdiest MX as a result, but it can no longer write. -

I'm trying to make a s777 sub and I have a sub right here but the G1 sub I have is pretty thin. Is the s777 mod thinner than a comssa? (Btw, I'm not using G1 because I cant't get it as well as the lavable sub.)

I made an Ayatori mod recently, but when I spin it it's SUPER heavy. I don't mind the heavyness that much, but for some reason it's really hard to do arounds and busts. Is the Ayatori mod supposed to be like this?
-
Date: Sun, Apr 28 2013 18:07:24
@Zakaryi: Yes. Spin something without heavy tips in the cap, there should be a bunch of lighter G3 mods. Or why not a RSVP MX. I doubt that impacts your busting ability though, with enough training it should be possible with about anything.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 28 2013 18:56:57
@Zakaryi If you felt it is too way heavy, try using G3 instead of Signo
The Ayatori Mod is just slightly not COG=COP, therefore,it maybe hard to do arounds and busts

are G3 tips the same as/a good sub for needlepoint tips?
-
Date: Wed, May 1 2013 05:35:17
No, a closer look at a needlepoint tip (hint: look on the insides, not outsides) would have revealed you it has extra metal inside like any Signo tip, though a little bit less. Which means you'll have more luck with it than a G3 tip, but still need to readjust the back.

Hey, a couple questions on the MX. 1. I know this was covered in the OP, but I don't find it specific enough. How exactly do I remove an HGG grip with the hot water method? Does the water have to be boiling for the grip to come off? Will the grip come off in the water or will I have to use a towel and still pull to get the grip off? No videos on YouTube or any guides go in-depth in this at all, so I'm still unsure of the procedure. 2. Is reversing the ink tube necessary? I feel like if I keep the ink tube in the original position, the pen will be slightly more balanced out; also, I don't have any tools at the ready able to drill a hole in the back cap big enough for the inktube - will it really make much of a difference? Thank you.
-
Date: Fri, May 3 2013 07:05:03
1.: The water needs to be boiling hot and you'll still need a towel to get it off. It's way easier to use tweezers and loosen the grip with them in a circular motion while keeping one half under it. The same technique can be used to get it off, since it twists and slides the grip at the same time. 2.: No, it isn't. Some aspies think it does make a difference. If it would do for me, I'd just remove the entire inktube. You don't need any drilling equipment either, a paperclip and a zippo are good enough to just melt through the plastic.
-
Date: Sat, May 4 2013 04:26:24
@Ascend As Webspider said, use tweezer and run under the grip, or you could cut the plastic in front of hgg grip (be careful not to cut the grip) For drilling holes, I use blunt X-Acto Blade and "drilling" the backplug, I hope it works.

I think modifying a pen isn't such a good idea. The most natural pen spinning comes from a the original unmodified pen. On top of that how many pens yo will modify every time you come across a new one and have to exhibit your talent with it.

IMO, pen modding/modifying is a necessity in pen spinning in making spinning attractive, easier and much more entertaining. Though many spinners uses unmodified pens in their spinning for example Ease uses unmodified Dr. Grip maybe due to the same reasons as yours. Pen modding is another way to show your creativity and it gives a personal touch to your own weapon. -

Is there really much of a difference between a regular Dong-A Sign Pen and the Miffy/M&M markers?
-
Date: Mon, May 13 2013 17:46:08
Yes. You need lots of tape to make the M&M caps hold on a Dong-A body and even more if it's something like a G1 or BIC Round Stic.
-

-
Date: Mon, May 13 2013 19:51:55
Well, the ComSsa caps are about as thick as a M&M body, so you'll need tape to make them hold and will get a longer mod that way. That's more of a problem than the tips, they will just look slightly weird on the comparatively small caps because the grip holding them will taper.

IIRC rubbing it with a coffee filter was the recommended way but I haven't tried it myself.
-
Date: Thu, May 30 2013 15:31:21
Rubbing it with a coffee filter won't remove that little piece inside. You need to cut off the plastic tips of the body where the ink comes out of and then use a chopstick to push the piece out of one side.
-
Date: Thu, May 30 2013 17:52:18
The way I did it was to cut the blue end off a little bit, and cut the entire front end off. Then pushed it out the other end. It does not fall out when you cut the blue end off like minwoo says 90% of the time.
-
Date: Thu, May 30 2013 18:39:58
just cut the tips on both end then push it out using a HGG ink. Worked every time for me.
-
Date: Fri, May 31 2013 10:59:57
If you cut one mm of the blue ends body (not just the tip but one mm of the body as well!) you will be able to remove the blue leftovers inside the body with a chopstick. Afterwards just shake the pen till both ink tubes (white and blue) come out. No need to remove the white tip as well.

yea I understand now there is a thick ink foam thing that would be impossible to remove without cutting the blue part off. another question, the tip fell off the cap, the way toput it back correctly is with super glue? or can i jam it strongly and it should hold? maybe another option? thanks

What mod are we talking about? Because on a minwoo... the tip will never fall off. On a Waterfall, you can tape around the signo tips or super glue it on. OR, if you're talking about the minovate dc (eriror version), then add tape around the signo tips. Other than those mods, I don't know, because I was basing that paragraph on the assumption that you were still relating to the super pirat body, and that really was what it was referring to because it was the last subject... but that might not have been what you meant. -

doesnt seem to hold that way (I pushed it hard by striking it against the wall). The weird thing is that it was glue before it fell off, I can see the glue remainders. edit: btw, now that i've taken all the crap from inside the pen feels a little bit light (lol). is there anything I can put iside that won't move while I spin and give it some weight? **still talking about a waterfall/ super pirat body

I'm relatively new to pen spinning and I was hoping to see if anyone else has had this strange experience. A couple of days ago, four different pens all started having this strange feeling while spinning, sort of like they are unbalanced or the barrel is bent. Sorry, it's hard for me to describe it. These pens are: bictory, metal comssa, buster cyl and some ballsign mod i don't know the name of. I don't know if i'm going crazy or what cause they all have the same feeling but they're all very different weights. Three of them have metal tips. It almost feels like the barrels have been flattened a little but don't appear to be when I look at them.

Moved to correct thread: forum.upsb.info/showthread.php?t=23 There is a possibility that your pens have been warped due to heat/pressure. The other possibility that causes your strange experience while spinning is you may have been switching from light to heavy/thin to thick barreled mods often. This switching of mods of highly different weight/thickness is known to cause trouble for a lot of spinners, especially newbies. This shouldnt be too much of an issue if you spin regularly. The feeling might dissipate. Or, perhaps some of your mods are just simply warped or unbalanced. -

Kemu wrote: which dr. grips were used in the original minwoo mod. Japanese dr grips or the american ones?
Japanese Dr. GRIP tips are the ones used to make Minwoo mods. ^^^ Click that to see a picture of a Japanese Dr. GRIP, just to be sure we're talking about the same one here. It's important not to get them mixed up because American Dr. Grip tips and Japanese Dr. GRIP tips have different weights. According to this page, Japanese Dr. GRIP tips are about 0.5 grams heavier than American ones, and this will affect the balance of a Minwoo mod (Japanese tip = balanced Minwoo mod, American tip = unbalanced Minwoo mod). Also, just a side note, do NOT get Dr. GRIPs mixed up with Dr. Grip G-Specs. The Dr. GRIPs that are almost always used for modding are the original Dr. GRIPs (the ones used to make Minwoo mods, Dr. KT variations, a thousand different G3 mods, etc.), G-Specs have completely different grips and tips, the Dr. GRIPs used for modding never have a plastic clip or clear body, they should look very similar to the one I linked above used to make Minwoo mods. [COLOR="magenta"][B]So... a simple answer to your question, yeah, Japanese Dr. GRIPs.[/B][/COLOR] -

Take the BIC inktube (if you still have it), cut the tube to whatever length you want but be careful if you're going to cut the part with ink in it, no need to spray ink all over the place, and plug it into the body. If you're using BIC caps (it looks like you are), then the cap should fit over the inktube and onto the barrel w/o a problem. You can also cut and add another BIC inktube into the other side of the barrel to make the mod able to write on both sides. -

Hmm, I expected the caps to fit snugly. Well, the options you have now is to either use different caps that do fit snugly, or find a different inktube(s) that work with the BIC Round Stic caps -

@shoeman. wow, superglue didn't work? well i just put some tape around the tip to make it thicker and then shoved it in and it is still stuck in my caps. If u rlly want it to stick forever, i guess you could use the tape method + superglue it. another possibility would be that the reynolds caps are slightly cracked, which would let the tip fall out easily, though i kinda doubt it, since the dr. grip should be keeping the reynolds cap from cracking

@Raiz If you mean cutting designs into them, that's a bad idea to use those grips, too hard. If you mean just cutting them, I usually just put the knife ontop of the grip, squash it flat and cut as straight down as possible hard. Can produce really clean cuts.

Yes I have to agree with eurocracy. DR.GRIP SHOULD NEVER be used for a grip cut design. Neptune, one of the most talented and experienced modders said so in his Grip cutting tutorial on V.3. Here it is CLICK HERE In order to cut DR.Grips I use a razor with a handle. Then I make where I want to cut, after measuring and then just press down. Try not to make the grip move as this leaves jagged marks. Also hold the razor and try not to move. Then realese. Hope this helps Good Luck and Happy Spinning :) Regards Zen

Hey @Raiz, me again. The piece can be anything. If you have a bic round stic cut a little piece of that. Just make sure it will last and not break if you pull too hard. If you have hot glue use that on the piece. I used one of those plastic grips on the bic round stic grip pens. It works fairly well. Anyway when your done pm me pic! :) I am pretty sure yours is better than mine. I suck.......... LOL Good Luck and Happy Spinning. Regards Zen -

I just recently made my own mod branching off the RSVP MX. However, the ends (cap and front) of the pen are too heavy in comparison to the barrel. It causes a weird momentum when I spin it which makes certain moves impossible because it flies out of my hand before I catch it. Anyone have any suggestions on what I could do to distribute the weight a little better? I have an entirely empty RSVP barrel, so I could stick some things in there to match the pen ends' heaviness. Suggestions? Please and thank you.

RSVP barrels tend to be to slippery to put a lot of weight on them. Either you get used to it or try taking out some weight from the caps.

Your better off making an mx. However if you want the metalic comssa, it depends. Do you want it premodded from Penwish or are you going to mod it? If you buy it from Penwish the grips will be sailor. If you mod it you have options,but it could be made poorly. The MX is better because it builds style which nowadays new spinners lack. I have been spinning an MX for a few months now. My spinning got a hell lot better. You can also stick to the bictory. I spin a bictory without any caps or tips. If you are planning to get Comssa's I WANT ONE. LOL.. I'm JK -_-. Regards Zen I AM NOT JOKING PM ME -

For wiper the best grips are Tornado grips on the Flying Panda mod. These are GODLY. If you want to do WIPERS with a metallic Comssa then don't get sailors. However you lose the color scheme. I do not think a metallic Comssa should be used fr wipers. But it's a matter of prefrence. I would get both if it was in my budget to get a color scheme and to be able to do wipers. Airfit is pretty good but expensive. Regards Zen -

i wouldnt recommend tornado grips honestly... you can try them as you like but grips for wipers are a personal preffrence i HIGHLY recommend dr grip grip or airfits, they are relatively cheap on penwish, sure they will get dirty over time but they make the mod look nice and authentic (note: airfit grip alone is 1$ on penwish and dr grip grip is 2.50$) other grips would be personal preffrence, since i can do wipers fine with sailor grips but i'll tell you this. it's never a bad thing to try all all kinds of grips then make your own mod with the grips you choose. -

Answers aren't cheap, pay up. LOL. Anyway best pen to start with is a bictory. It consists of two pens bic round stic. Very cheap, very common easy as hell to make. Again google it. "Bictory Pen mod". You can also make a mx. RSVP MX. Consists of two pens RSVP and HGG both by a pen company called Pentel. However if you are looking for max a cheap, good mod for noobs these are both good. I suggest the bictory because you find it everywhere and takes a monkey to mod it.

Best way is if you just hammer it out using a screw driver and a hammer Unlike a comssa cal where you have to cut your way to hollow it there's a bit in the color twin cap stopping it from drying out which can easily pop out if you hammer out, and the best thing is, you can always put that piece in so the ct isn't hollow anymore -

I have never held nor seen in person any known mods except an RSVP MX which I have made myself. So any mod question I could think of would be in comparison with the said mod. So with that done with, my question is: 1. Is the barrel of a Super Pirat equal, thicker, thinner than the barrel of an RSVP? 2. Same question as above but replace Super Pirat with "Dong-A Computer Sign Pen". 3. What's the difference between a regular Dong-A Computer Sign Pen and a Cartoon Miffy besides the transparent cap and funky print?
-
Date: Thu, Sep 26 2013 23:27:24
1. Pirats are thinner. 2. Pirats and Comssas are roughly the same thickness (if I remember correctly) 3. Nothing. If anything, the cartoon miffys are slightly shorter in length. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

The question does not really have an answer. Anything can be made single color. For example, the BusterCYL can be modded to a all white mod or an all black mod or orange, or yellow or (insert color). This is all of a matter of prefrence. The Yelo mod was originally yellow, but you can make it into any color. Double sided mods usually provide an assortment of colors and customibillity.

Hey Guys, First time posting on the forums and beginner spinner here. Thanks for all the info btw, I've been through several threads and there is so much useful info out there. I'm guessing this question has been answered, I searched through the forums and google but could not find the answer, so please bear with me on this one and I apologize if it already has been answered. My hands are small, and a friend lent me his waterfall comssa to try out. It just feels like the pen is to long for my hands, so I started looking at pens that are a bit shorter and came across the Namae. I did some searching and found this information regarding the Namae vs Dr Namae: - They are basically same except for the tips. Is the Dr. Namae much heavier than the original Namae (the one available on the Penwish site currently) I understand that using a heavier pen when learning fundamentals can bring up some dependencies and bad habits so I don't mind using a lighter pen. Can anyone elaborate on the differences between Namae and the Dr version? Thanks.

The ballsign mod is not that hard to spin with. Yes there is some degree, mostly due to the slippery body, but if one can spin that then, a great spinner he will become. I suggested the ballsign mod because it is for beginners, not only that ballsigns, or gelly rolls can be found in the US, unlike namae. Regards Zen -
Date: Sat, Oct 5 2013 08:10:14
@Ripton The Dr namae is way heavier. The namae mod sold on PW is a impact tipped one, it will be heavier than the waterfall. If you want a shorter mod, explore alternatives such as superpirat waterfall (different body, original and shorter), minovate DC, SC mods. Many superpirat based mods will be shorter, for example JackyMacy who has shorter hands has a mod called the Dr. ComZTa, which is a shorter, medium weight comssa-alike mod with a superpirat body if you like.
-

Yes you are right in the aspect that the ballsign mod is hard to spin with, but you are not thinking in the long term effect. If one was to spin the ballsign for a year or two than his style and skill will increase. If one can master tricks on a hard mod than he can surely do them on other mods. The mod is for beginners, and is not. You have to define, what a noob-friendly mod is. If it is a mod that makes, spinning easier, than why not spin a heavy mod? The fact that noobs spin light mods, is because we need to first learn and master tricks, so we can do tricks on all mods- heavy or light, big or small. So isn't it better for a noob to spin a harder mod? This is not a diss, but an discussion, if you will. Regards Zen

Are both ends of a Dr Grip grip the same? because the waterfall tutorial mentioned a "lip" and I cannot discern any difference in both side in any pictures I have seen.

No, the two sides of the Dr. Grip grip are not the same, one side has a lip, and the other one doesn't.You can still cut it in half but won't have two similar pieces as far as I know.Correct me if I'm wrong :)

yup, you just have to use some tape on the body where the cap goes on. the best thing to use is teflon tape since it is used for binding and jointing. i would suggest investing is some for the purpose of maintaining and creating mods. its very cheap and can be found at nearly every hardware store.

I have a question, I just got a Comssa Waterfall from Penwish and I can see a a big area on the pen that looks black in the light which I presume is ink on Penwish but when I look at my mod its reversed, the big area on the pen that is black in Penwish is white on my mod and the small remainder of the body is black. I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me if its ink, or just coincidence because I'm really paranoid that the ink will explode and here in the Philippines, it takes months for a spin pen to get here.

According to [B]this[/B] page, 1 HGR tip is approximately the equivlant of 2 HGG tips. So, weight-wise, 2 HGG tips are what I would use to sub for an HGR tip. -

You can sub the entirity of the back cap of the minwoo mod as follows, too: Take a penwish miffy sub cap, and a ZT tip Hollow out the cap and put a little tape around the ZT screw, or will fit in the small part of the cap. Now file the larger section of the cap until it fits. Insert all the way into the G3 cap Alternatively you can also preserve the G3 grip and use that too. I would personally suggest signo broad black.

Erm, they're all plastic, so either way, if fire touches any of those pen parts, they're most likely gone. I mean, none of those are gonna be fire-proof or anything. Why do you want to see what pen part will sustain fire/heat anyways? -

Well, it shouldn't be completely noticable, but there is less momentum because of the inktube and mech. But it should not affect spinning too much. I mean it is only a inktube. That's not a bad price to pay for a retractable mod. Regards Zen -

Hmm.... I think they meant to add some paper in one of the caps, indicating the mod to be unbalanced. I don't know if this is true, never having owned any Rushon pens myself. I suggest that you first make the mod perfectly normally w/o using the paper and if the final product isn't balanced, then just stuff some paper in whichever cap on the heavier end. If you do add the paper anyways, rolled up or balled up doesn't matter. -

The gripmatic tips will probably not fit into the cap. The reason being is that gripmatic is to long. It also has a awkward lip that will not look good for the inverse comssa mod. Just use signos. Gripmatic is also somewhat heavy and one of the main factors of the mod is light. you can you them sure, but they will stick out and not fully go in. Good Luck Regards Zen -

I have a couple questions about general pen physics. So recently brpke one of my reynolds caps for my waterfall, and I'm stuck with what I have until my next order. Right now I have a mx^2 and a buster cyl with signo tips. The problem I have with my mx^2 is that it seems that its very heavy, but it doesn't have much momentum. I comparison tp my waterfall, they are both 16 gramms each, but my waterfall spins with a lot of momentum and felt "free spinning" compared to the mx^2 where I feel liking I'm pushing the pen and the weight kinda hurts my hands. (This is not like having to pusha super light pen on wipers and infinties etc.) Is there are clear explanation for this? About my Buster CYL with signo tips, it is 15 grams, but has less momentum than my waterfall. I think this might have to do with how to weight is distributed on the caps of the pens, but I'm not sure. My last question is, is there a pen that can immitate the feeling of a waterfall? (SS / SC / DC) Thanks so much!
-
Date: Sat, Dec 14 2013 04:37:09
I believe it has something to do with the length. The length of a mx2 is pretty short compared to a waterfall mod. I too have spun a signo tipped mx and then a waterfall, it feels easier to spin with and even maybe lighter. The weight is not as distributed. Which is why in most cases spinners generally spin busters and such, due to the ease it is to execute tricks with them. (Sounded better in my head) The reason your "buster" has less momentum is because your buster signo tipped as opposed to the norm of being airfit tipped. Unfortunately, there are not many mods out there that can truly replace the waterfall mod. However if you are looking for a substitute a Flying Panda is very similar although might be better to get a reynold cap Good Luck Zen

If you spam tape on the backplug it will feel heavier towards one side. I recommend using normal scotchtape, as you do not need many rounds of it around the backplug so that the caps fit nicely, compared to teflon tape, scotch tape works better imo -

How did you put the grip inside? The normal method (or one commonly used) is to fold the grip and then insert it. You can also cut off that little nub on the grip and use it as a ring. If it is ripped it could be because you used too much force when putting it in. Hope this helps Regards Zen

if you take apart a Bic grip stick(?) pen, theres a little part underneath the grip part that you can cut off and will hold much better than a flash card. its already the same size as the inside of the other bic barrels so you shouldnt have any issues with it. sorry i dont remember the exact name of the bic pen with the grip but it's something along those lines and theyre pretty easy to find.

Alright a couple of points i want to bring up here. First of all, the solutions you suggested are NOT a good solution to your problem. Let me tell you why Hot Glue: This is a big no-no is pen modding, and any experienced pen modder will tell you this. It is extremely fragile and brittle and is likely to break when you drop it. Rubber Cement I don't know much about this as i have never used this before, but i can tell you that after a quick google search that this is not safe. It is highly flammable and has to be handled with care as an adhesive. I wouldn't recommend using it to join the bodies Paper Insert This is also very weak, unless you are using something like cardstock, (which is quite unreasonable) The paper might just fold over. Now my suggestions.... [B]Grip[/B]: This is pretty good, and is sturdy enough. You have many choices with this in terms of Color, Size and Strength. [B]Barrel Piece[/B] This is one of the main ways to connect two bodies. Using a barrel piece such as a bic, are techniques used in the VGG mod and the ZT mod. -

I actually did try putting a grip in the middle, but a giant rubber lump in the center got annoying. For putting a barrel piece in the middle.. the pen @browndog12 mentioned seemed like what I need, but I can't really find the pen what looks about right to fit in the clic stic barrel.

It depends on how it broke, do you have a picture? In any case tape should fix it up, but it won't look good. If you have a picture i can see the actual problem and maybe i can help you from there. EDIT: @linli07 thanks for sending the picture to me, i will go ahead and post it here if anyone else has a solution.it looks pretty bad. In fact i don't even know how that could happen. In your case you should try to salvage the hgg tip from the plastic. Your best bet now is to mod something else. There are a few mods that utilize hollowing out a comssa cap. One of the notable one is the Retractable Comssa by K4S. Another one is the inverse comssa mod. I don't think you will be able to completely repair it though. Sorry, if i couldn't help! Good Luck!Spoiler

For the old version, if you're trying to get to the nub that holds the cap, yes I think you do. For the new version you'll have to cut it to get to the inner stuff (anything besides the grip, tip, and ink). -

Hey everyone, So today I got all the materials to make a Waterfall Comssa (Dr. Grip grips, DS CSS body, Signo tips, and Reynolds caps. I finished making it not too long ago but I'm wondering if I should cut part of the Dr.Grip grip (the side closest to the middle of the barrel). As of now, the pen weighs significantly heavier than the Flying Panda. Thanks
-

Refrain from making new threads to ask questions. Use the shoutbox for that. But since you're new here, i tink we wont be too harsh on this one. Yes, you can cut part of the doctor grip away but u can also use the whole grip. But its all about Personal preference. This thread might be closed anytime soon. Remember to use the shoutbox next time. As a matter of fact, you can get help faster there. Cheers
-
Date: Sat, Jun 7 2014 03:51:30
Actually the flying panda mod and waterfall mod may be the same weight. Although the Dr.grip may give it a bit more weight. What does it look like do you have a picture? You don't have to cut the dr.grip. It is fine the way it is. If you are more keen on spinning then i suggest you just leave it. It will not change anything. If you are more of a modding person. By all means go ahead and pretty it up. Don't overboard though. Make it look Clean and Simple. Hope this helps And @Reason get some experience as moderator. Regards Zen

Well what you could so is, take some signo tips and instead of putting them on with the tip facing up, put the front part [B]inside[/B] the supertip. They actually fit quite well with some tape and more importantly they are hidden. -

Yeah they are good, but not great. They have lines across them, so it is difficult to get a "good cut". Use a Bic Matic grip for grip cutting. It is good for beginners, as it is thin and easy to cut. Neptune used it a lot. Profile/Anyball are used for their sections, not actual grip cuts. -

If you are talking about the front cap part with the metal g3 tip then i can help you. Basically you put the anyball grip on the [B]cap[/B] not the tip. The tutorial tells you to wrap tape around the g3 tip. Then you have to fit the tip in the cap you cut. so the tip sticks out. Then you put black anyball ON the CAP not the TIP. The tip is in the cap so it looks like the anyball covers it. Picture from the Wiki
Take a look, at first glance it looks like the anyball is covering the tip, but the anyball is on the cap. The is tip is IN the cap
@h2o
The Baaron DC mod is of course secret. There are only a select few that know how to make it. I believe there was a thread on UPSB discussing the mod, but you may have better luck asking Baaron himself for the weight, or just by looking at the fake mod/real mod and eye-balling the weight.
Remember just because the guy who made the mod, is a legendary spinner, doesn't make the spinner who spins his mod legendary. Find your own mod, and play your weaknesses and strengths.

Nice hair :p Yeah that is because that is not anyball grip. Is that g3 or did you take the wrong part of the anyball? And the ALL of the grip is ON the CAP. Don't put half of it on the edge. The tip is already inside the cap, so as long as you cover it with tape and the grip you will not see the tip -

Hey Guys, I normally spend about 3 hours a day looking through all the pen mods on penwish.com and figuring out what parts I need to build them and where I might get those parts. I've noticed that there are a few good mods that involve the Crayola Super Tips and I've also noticed that on the Officeworks Australia website, you can buy a pack of 40 for $15 and there's only 10 colors meaning that there are going to be 4 of each color which is good. But I don't have access to any fancy caps to put on the ends like most mods so I was looking at making the Ivan Mod. I do have access to Dr Grip grips, and they're $10 each :\, but the problem is I was wondering how hard it would be. It doesn't look all that hard to make the Ivan Mod, but I was just looking for some insight. I also was just wondering if double capping the Crayola Super Tip would work. Thanks, Hamilation
-
Date: Sat, Jul 5 2014 00:31:40
That's a lot of questions in one post :D First, an Ivan buster cyl dosen't have Dr.Grip, It's airfits grip and tips. Secondly, if you want to make a mod, there's a lot of tutorial on how to make them so just search for how to make an Ivan buster cyl and Im preaty sure you will find it. Third, I don't understand what you want to say by double capping the crayola supertips so can you be more clear on this part ?
-
Date: Sat, Jul 5 2014 00:39:18
Hey h20, I don't have access to airfits grips which is why I was just going to use Dr Grip grips which I personally like, I use them on my current spinning pen. I know how to make the Ivan Mod, I've seen youtube tutorials but they always make things look so easy, so I was just looking for some insight from people that have made it. And by double capping, I mean taking the Crayola Super Tip cap off on Super Tip and putting it on the back of another so you have a double capped Crayola Super Tip. Thanks, Hamilation

IIRC the ring at the base of the G3 tip along with the tape you wrap around it is supposed to hold it inside the G3 cap. If your tip doesn't stick out enough, try sanding down the G3 cap a little more so that the tip has more room to move forwards. Zen's explanation is kind of confusing to me as well. The grip is definitely not on top of the G3 cap lol.

You need to print out and cut out your insert and then take clear packaging tape and place one strip along the top half of the insert and one strip along the bottom half. Then you simply place the tape on the barrel and roll the insert all the way around.

Yeah that's what I suggested you do in my other post. Gradually sand it down and test whether or not the tip sticks out enough. If you go too far and the tip falls through, wrap tape around the tip base so that it fits snugly in the cap but still pokes out enough to place the grip. -
Date: Mon, Jul 7 2014 01:30:21
the "tiny lip" is probably whats holding the tip from falling off the cap... meaning: you have to be really seriously careful not to sand too much off. ideal situation is that you dont need any tape, cuz those wear out overtime. Frog~

Usually it needs to be a sizeable extension. There's no golden rule for what is and isn't an extended mod but generally they make extension modifications themselves. I think I might have seen an extended Kuzu tutorial a while back but for things like extended KT's and such, people usually just figure out ways to extend the mod and call it extended. -

Also, the tip of the pen comes off when i write with it. I have tried screwing it on to masking taped tip on the RSVP, but it doesn't help. Any advice? Thanks.
@Aalz-7, I want to help you get your mod completed, but first I'd like to ask what tutorial are you using to make it? I'll try to address your problems in the order in which you wrote them. 1. First of all, make sure that the parts that you are using are EXACTLY the same as the ones in the tutorial. Are you sure that you're using the right kind of Uni-Ball Signo tips? Make sure they're the metal kind and NOT the Plastic kind (I made the mistake of getting the WRONG Signo tips when I first started modding). 2. When you say that "the HGG grip doesn't fit over the removed grip section of the RSVP," do you meant that the HGG grip is too LOOSE over the removed grip section or the RSVP, or that you can't really get the grip on? 3. To fix it so the tip doesn't come off of the RSVP barrel when writing, try using Teflon Tape to keep the Signo Tip on. PLUS, if you fix the HGG grip on the RSVP so it's nice and tight, the HGG grip will keep the Signo Tip in place. If it's still comping off, I recommend Teflon tape to keep it attached. If nothing else is working, try supergluing the metal Signo tip to the RSVP plastic tip part. If you Have you made a RSVP MX mod first, and now you're tweaking it to make a SRMX? But before you start going Nuts with a superglue bottle, could you please send me a link/picture of the tutorial and then, [B]if you can, could you take a picture of what your mod currently looks like and Upload it to Photobucket? If I can see pictures of what your issues are, I can[/B] -

http://www.upsb.info/forum/index.php?showtopic=3368 is the tut I'm using. Yeah I've got the correct metal signo tips with the lips from the capped gel pens. When i say the hgg grip doesn't fit, i mean that when pushed all the way down, it doesn't hold the tip (too short). I am using brand new grips so maybe this is the reason. I will try tape and glue. Thanks for your detailed help.

If the HGG grip doesn't reach the Signo tip, then try cutting a small portion of another grip (whichever color tickles your fancy) and put it on the removed grip section of the RSVP before you put on the HGG grip -

You can take a bic body and place it on the nub of the CT cap. Then take a hammer or other heavy object and tap the top of the bic body so the nub eventually breaks off and comes out of the bottom ('clip' side) of the cap. Make sure to use a sturdy and hard surface when doing this. -

That was one of the biggest fails I've ever seen when modding XD. If you're using pliers, make sure you twist while pulling. If it's REALLY stuck in the back end, [B]I HIGHLY recommend wrapping a few layers of ELECTRICAL TAPE around the Emboss Barrel near that backcap SO YOU DON'T ACCIDENTALLY FRACTURE THE BARREL WHILE TRYING TO REMOVE THE BACKCAP[/B]. To remove the backcap, try using a drill with a [B]SMALL[/B] drillbit to drill a hole into the backcap, then see if you can find something skinny with a little bit of a hook, so you can try to pull the backcap out from the inside. -

@Dandy tweezers work. And so does putting the rsvp body in the cap and then pulling the grip out. Just what I do.

Unless you teflon tape it, super gluing is the only way. Are you sure that you ACTUALLY let the glue dry before spinning???? Because that isn't meant to happen.... -

Just use a hot gluegun. @nv16

I believe you put the big on in. If the small one is attached to the big one, then i guess you put both in. -

How exactly do you use nail polish remover/acetone to remove the ink on a pen body? I've seen a super pirat body dipped in what appeared to be acetone, sat for ~20 seconds, taken out, and rubbed using a towel and made completely white. Would this exact technique work SPECIFICALLY for a Japanese Dr. Grip body? (The ones with metallic paint)

To use acetone/nail polish remover, you need to get a cloth and pour a boit of the acetone on it. Then you wrap it around your pen barrel, and rub. It will come off. Here ChowCow does it on camera ------->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFoVX5ewaN8 @3.49 -

You can put tips inside the comssa caps, just wrap the tips in tape so they fit snugly. -

@ShadowParadox This seems to be some kind of recurring problem that people have. People seem to have a hard time removing backplugs or tips without leaving teeth marks or scratches left by the pliers. I have some pliers which I use that I've dipped in this kind of liquid rubber that solidifies once it dries. These pliers are profoundly helpful, and because of them, I no longer leave scratches or break anything when I'm trying to separate 2 parts. I highly recommend that people try to find rubber tipped pliers, or dip some themselves. -

Hey guys, just wondering - are there any rules on pens you use in tournaments? eg. weight or material? I use soms pens I bought in China at the moment - http://img.dxcdn.com/productimages/sku_150504_4.jpg And they are quite heavy and use non slip material in the middle - just wondering if that's allowed. Greetings!
