Stats: Length: ~20cm (uses full space of G3 for spinning) Weight: 14-15g Balance: COG about 2mm in front of COG (feels very great, and nearly like a DC-mod!) Cost: about 7 Euro (~9$ i think) Ued pens: 4 + 3 rings of Anyball-grip - Pilot G3 (Metal Tip): body, grip, cap, tip, mine - Crayola Supertip: backplug, small part of the front - Pentel HGG: tip, grip - Uniball Signo DX: grip, tip - 3 rings of Anyball
================================================================================
Gather your materials first.
Take of the grip and the tip from the G3 and remove the backplug. But be careful with grip, you will need it later! Seperate the rings and take them off, then cut off the rest. (Keep both parts!)
Put an insert into the G3, cut of the part, that holded the tip and sand down all nubbles.
Remove the backplug and the mine of the Supertip. Cut off about 2mm of the front.
Sand down the upper ring on the Supertip backplug. (left: without - right: with ring)
Put the Supertip backplug into the G3 (if it is too loose, wrap some tape around it).
Then empty the mine of the G3 and cut off ~3cm. Gather it in front of you, like in the picture.

Screw the HGG-tip on the Supertip part,you cut off and put he G3 mine into it from the other side. (again wrap tape around it, when it is too loose) ATTENTION: If tape overlaps, it has to be removed, otherwise your G3 could burst, when you put the mine into it!
Put the G3 rings on the front, add the Supertip front and glue the Signo tip onto the HGG-grip. Wrap some clear tape around the whole pack to stabilize it.
Finish the front by putting the Signo Dx grip on the front and add the Anyball rings.
Let's prepair the cap. As always, cut the clip, remove the little stopper in the cap.
Prepair a little beatiful grip-tip-grip-pack with the HGG-grip, the rest of the G3-Grip, the g3-tip and elemantely the cap.
"Bend" the G3-grip, like in the picture and put it into the G3-tip.
Put it into the Hgg-grip.
Put it in the cap and push it on the Supertip-backplug. You can wrap tape around the backplug again to make it more stabile.
You're finished. (All credits go to Soschie from GPC. I hope you can understand my english, it is not the very best.)
Here are some other versions than the ones mentioned in the tutorial.

@AWtii69: Supertip backplug and front part.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 16:36:00
@Syrti okay, and whats CYL mean, all ikno is that it probably has something to do w/ supertip given the buster has a supertip
-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 16:50:21
CYL=Crayola Also sweet looking mod, I think I have all the parts, I want to make it.
-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 17:19:53

-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 17:36:41

-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 17:46:19
I just made it and it's very nice. I was inspired by the Mesi G3 lookalike and I made mine like a SeVen =P
-
Date: Sun, Apr 3 2011 23:27:12
Wow. Pretty Sick :D Tell me a nice lookalike to make when i only have tinted barrel g3? The spinning? how is it?
-

Great mod, I guess it's better to sub the G3 Grip. Newbs be making this mod, thinking that it is same weight, or like the Buster CYL.

I thought this was a noob tutorial haha ! Anyways, looks fucking sexy. Something i don't like is the g3 grip above the DX grip :/ It looks out of place. But i guess you could always get another grip to cover it up ._.

You could always put electrical tape there. It also helps to make that section of the pen flush with the rest since g3 grip is so much thinner than the dx grip. -

@Syrti How to remove the little stopper in G3 Cap?
-
Date: Wed, Apr 13 2011 11:12:23
@sasuak: just take an ink, or a toothpik and fumble it out.
-
Date: Wed, Apr 13 2011 19:58:13
I always find that signo tips can pull it out really well. Drop one in and push it with the back of an inktube, then get it out.

How about the Supertip front part and the backplug? -
Date: Fri, Apr 15 2011 15:53:19
you could use hgr and put some pattafix, or gripparts in the back to balance the mod!
-

-
Date: Sat, Mar 10 2012 07:12:45
it looks like mesi g3 mod
-
Date: Sat, Mar 10 2012 17:33:11
why didnt soschie use hgg body(front part) instead of st？ It will save some time when modding. and i think if you put g3 tip at the front, signo tip at the back will make this pen more balanced. just a guess. @Syrti
