True Geller mod

Postby BloorA on April 9th, 2009, 11:26 pm

This was intentionally meant to be a present for a friend, so i experimented and it looked really good. It looks like a clear-bodied Dr.KT if you added sailor grips to it =) It has very nice momentum to it too, and the best of all, its cheap and simple =)

Name: True Geller mod
Weight: depends what tips you use. =)
Length: 20cm (19.9 cm if precisely)
Style: Double-sided
Insert? Yes!


Parts needed:
Image
2x Faber Castell True Gel (the 0.7 types haver clear bodies, whereas the 0.5s have tinted bodies)
2x Grips of choice (I used g2 grips again)
2x Tips of choice (I used signo tips)

Step One:
Image
completely strip down one true gel. Keep/Discard the unwanted stuff

Step Two:
Image
Cut the clips off from both caps. It is relatively easy to cut it off. Sand/File it down if you want to.

Step Three:
Image
Tape the tips onto the caps, and place your grips onto the caps.

Step Four:

Image
Rub off the barrel design. It should be a nice clear body. (Place an insert now)

Step Five:

Double cap it and spin!

Finished product:

Enjoy!

signo tips can be taken from uniball signo pens. (signo broad, signo dx, signo gel but not signo RT)

yes, you can use g1 tips.

the length and weight is stated in the tutorial. read carefully =)
if you use g1 tips then the weight will be like.. a G1-twin np and if you use signo tips it'll be like a signo-tipped comssa. =)

and MFK, ill take a pic when im free
