    ===Reposted From UPSBv3 Due to Popularity=== ===Credits to Vicgotgame for the Tutorial===== ============================= Stats: ============================= Vicgotgame Mod COG: center Length: varies Weight: heavy Writing-Mechanism: non-writable ============================= Materials List: ============================= (2) Supertips Marker x2 (2) RSVP caps x2 (1) Dr. Grip grip (cut in half) (2)Airfit Jel tips x2 (1)Bic Round Stick Super glue Tape ============================= Tutorial: ============================= [spoiler=TUTORIAL]Ok this mod is pretty simple to mod and hopefully the tut is just as easy to follow... 1). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00810.jpg Take the ink tube and back plug out of both Supertip Makers 2). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00811.jpg Take whatever your using to cut the Supertip barrels and cut just below where the Supertip cap would go. Cut the tips off both Supertips and cut however much of the barrel you want to match your length preference. (I usually cut enough to when you put the two supertips together the length will be just below your hand length). It should look something like this.. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00812.jpg Make sure to flatten the Supertip ends (you can sand it, or i just trim it till it looks straight :P). And make that both Supertips are equal length! 3). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00813.jpg Take your Bic Round Stic and remove the ink tub. 4). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00814.jpg Cut where the line is in the pic. I used scissors to cut but whatever works for you go ahead. 5). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00815.jpg Now that you have the two Supertips and the Bic piece your going to put the non-cut side of the Bic into one of the Supertips. The bic piece goes into the "backplug end" of the Supertip. Itll look something like this.. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00816.jpg 6). http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00817.jpg Now that the bic piece is in, your going to connect the other Supertip with the the first Supertip. Make sure to even the bic piece out among the two Supertips so, meaning when you connect the other Supertip the Bic piece wont be farther into one end of one Supertip, itll be even. OPTIONAL.) When i connect the Supertip bodies they usually start to come apart so what i do is put a little Superglue on the bic piece so they stay together. I think you can use a small piece of paper of some other material, but i just use Superglue. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00818.jpg 7). Now that the two Supertips are connected itll look like this.. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00819.jpg 8). Put the completed Body aside and get your two RSVP caps. http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00820.jpg What your going to do with these is first your going to remove the clip. After you removed the clips get out your cutting tool. Your going to cut just below where the RSVP pen clicks into the cap. Like this... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00821.jpg Make sure to even off both caps and sand down if needed, making sure both pieces are equal length. Do this to both caps and you should have these... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00823.jpg These are going to slide over the ends of the Supertips. BUT dont do that yet. 9). Now get your Dr. Grip grip and cut in half, or if you have two even pieces already thatll work. Put the grips over the cut-end side of the RSVP piece. I slide them on enough to where the grip meets the little "bump" on the RSVP cap. Then once youve done that, put the Airfit tips into the grips. Should look like this... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00825.jpg 10). Now get your Supertip body and get tour tape and wrap a small amount onto the tips of the Supertip ends. Like this... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00824.jpg This will make sure the RSVP pieces wont slide off the Supertip bodies. 11). Then once youve put tape on the ends and you have your RSVP pieces with the grips and tips, slide them over the ends of the Supertips. Once youve done that your DONE!! And heres your finished mod... http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l286/vic...e1/DSC00826.jpg [/spoiler] If theres any questions let me know. :)

    That's how vic likes it :P But you can cut the supertip bodies down to make it shorter.

  8. Kirby
    Date: Sat, Jul 17 2010 18:15:06

    @shadowbane: Cutting RSVP caps takes less than 20 seconds. @Sarugio: You probably only know of the new ones. There was an older version that had slightly different caps, backplugs and I think they were a tad shorter (not sure). Vic uses the new (popular) version though.

    \ Just shorten the barrels slightly more than vic, and you have a similar mod to a buster. But it's slightly better than the buster, which is why I replaced it with this mod.

    Does anyone know of an easy method to take out the supertip backplug?

  17. Kirby
    Date: Mon, Jul 26 2010 20:49:07

    Pliers. Just grip with pliers, then twist and pull.

  18. walrus
    Date: Mon, Jul 26 2010 21:16:56

    take pliers with a skinny nose and put one side inside. pull backwards (not all the way becuase that bends that plastic) then if you pulled it out enough, grip the end of the plug and pull backwards.

  19. Morpheus
    Date: Mon, Jul 26 2010 22:44:34

    could you just super glue and tape the two super tip bodies together?

  20. Kirby
    Date: Mon, Jul 26 2010 23:01:26

    You could but I wouldn't just use the bic piece method like it shows. It's easy to find, sturdy, and easy to make with the correct method.

  21. SuiXidaL
    Date: Mon, Jul 26 2010 23:02:19

    ummmmm.... NO how the fuck are you meant to glue and tape two supertip bodies with nothing in between for extra support? tape is irraitating to spin on when there is a massive bunch just taping the body together and the mod has heaps of mmt and weight and im sure the mod would fall apart after a few combos. Sorry if i was being rude but that was a really stupid question.

    someone can't read, the supertips are joined by a bic body segment about 2cm long xD

  25. SuiXidaL
    Date: Sat, Aug 28 2010 13:30:31

    If its 2cm long then make it longer. I would just use a Bic round stic grip grip, the coloured bit with the white lines, its light and you dont need to cut it at all.

    the materials say jell tips like vic's tutorial in v3... i think he got confused with the ballpoint tips because if you look at the materials picture those are BP tips O_o The jell tips are taller and wider than ballpoint tips but are less dense... i think those are ballpoint tips but idk i could be wrong

    Regular airfit tips or dr grip tips.

    Date: Sat, Oct 16 2010 20:17:00

    When I did my vicgotgame mod as like the tutorial says, it was 25 cm and too long. I cut 1 cm from every crayola, it's 23 cm now and much better.

  31. eborgnia
    Date: Mon, Oct 18 2010 01:12:15

    If you dont have Rsvp caps, you can use sharpie caps,using more tape to let it fit on the supertip barrel. Rsvp is a lot more efficient, because you use less tape, and the sharpie caps are heavier. However, if you have sharpies and you like a heavier mod just use sharpie caps (cut the same length as Rsvp cap).

    Hey guys.. Can you use airfit grips instead of Dr. Grips?

  37. tubapete

    Is there an substite for the tips that is easily obtainable in America? Thanks

  38. PenwisH
    Date: Thu, Oct 28 2010 20:28:58

    airfit and dr.grip grip is silicon gel tip all can be used. No thereis really no tip subs that work. you can use american dr.grip tip but that will be slightly off in terms of weight. if you can't purchase online some shops like kino,, mitsuwa and other shops will have things

  39. Kirby
    Date: Thu, Oct 28 2010 20:53:55

    American dr. grip is pretty close in weight.

  40. PenwisH
    Date: Thu, Oct 28 2010 21:10:25

    you'll lose a gram or so if you use american instead of jap. so if you don't really care about a gram go ahead and get some dr.grips at walmart

  41. Kris5k5
    Date: Fri, Oct 29 2010 16:37:01

    you can use silicon gel grip tip its also kinda heavy

    where do u put the bic barrel? i know that u cut 2cm of the back and glue it in the middle but where do u put the left over barrel?

  44. PenwisH
    Date: Thu, Nov 11 2010 21:16:36

    no you can't use impact rt tips, leftover barrel you use on another mod you only need a few cm for vicgotgame

  46. chris
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 02:20:58

    this mod > Buster CYL 1. The construction of the mod is quite excellent in terms of distribution of momentum. (idk if I'm saying this right) 2. Weight/momentum is both on the sides and the center,so.... 3. If done correctly, COG = line on the center of the mod = COP, which is quite nice if you're practicing cont tricks. EDIT: 4. Adjustable length :P

    No you're not. It needs to read: 'The construction of the mod is quite in terms of distribution or momentum. A word such as maybe 'even' or 'balanced'?

  48. drgripable

    isn't it much more expensive though? on pensiwh its $10 more

  49. Jamal
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 02:54:00

    @drgripable on penwish its only $15 to make even with more expensive dr grip tips, the whole airfit pen is actually cheaper.

  50. Holypie
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 02:55:21

    It uses more pens. Buster CYL uses only 5 pens, while this uses 9 pens, 10 if you want the dr grip grip to be identical on both sides.

  51. drgripable
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 03:03:07

    no, i meant the vicgotgame mod. It's $10 more on penwish than the buster cyl on penwish. $15vs $25

  52. Jamal
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 03:17:44

    @drgripable i know, but im saying the vicgotgame mod is only $15 if you make it yourself

  53. drgripable
    Date: Sun, Dec 12 2010 03:20:05

    oh...i see....then all i have to do is buy another dr. grip

    The airfit gel pens and the dr.grip grips. their really isn't any true substitute for it, you could try to use the American dr.grip tips and grips (which are diffrent than the Japanese ones used here) but I think that wouldn't work out quite well.

    Actually, I think the Buster is already quite a long pen, it's for big hands in my opinion. And also, don't forget that the length of this mod is customizable, so it could be cut to the same length as a Buster.

    @MickChickenn You can make a extended one with Crayola Pipsqueak barrels connected VGG style...But you have to rub the bodies and the feel is different. Also, The backplugs are freakin' hard to get out.
