Hello,
Three years ago, Akai and I did a small collaboration. I invented a penmod from his own spinning preference, based on my Vôre-Tèx KT. We decided to call the mod Variegated Amaryllis (shorten to VA). Initials are for Vôre-Tèx and Akai.
Original own by Akai : 22cm, 15g.
There is no tape to hold the parts each other’s. Everything is tight hard to avoid the rattling.
The original mod looks like this
If You are looking for the video tutorial, below is the source
If you are looking for the step by step written tutorial, you are at the right place hehe
Pen list :
- 1 BT barrel
- 2 CT/KT big caps
- 2 new comssa backplugs
- 2 HGG tips
- 2 Dr.Grip metal rings
- 2 tect orings
- 2 Dr.Grip grips
- 2 Anyball grips
- 2 Sailor Needle Line grips . Extremely hard to find in general. If this is easy for you, you are the lucky one
- 1 G2/Supergrip grip
- 4 thin mech keyboard rings
Note : The sailor needle line grip is thinner than G1/G3 grip. This is the connector bewteen the cap and the body. If you can’t find these, use regular tape. However, it seems that according to 50snakes that bic gelocity grip is a good sub for Needle line.
Here is now the tutorial :
1- Prepare both of your caps as the original Vôre-Tèx KT caps.
2- Cut the Supergrip/G2 grip as shown. Keep the 2 pieces of 2 blocks
3- G2 grips and mech keyboard rings above the caps
4- Cut your anyball grips as shown and keep the part at the center
5- Cut the anyball piece of grip into the lengthwise for 2.5cm
6- Cut your Dr.Grip grip from the lip to 3cm.
This is the internal structure of the tip stack. HGG tip into the cut anyball grip followed by the dr.grip ring
7- Add the anyball grip first
8- Then the dr.grip metal ring
9- With a refill, push the inveted HGG tip into the anyball grip
10- Your cap is done 🙂 you can add extra decorative tape on the visible part of the cap as well.
11- For the barrel, remove the lip of your BT
12- Cut the comssa backplugs as shown
13- Cut the sailor grip as shown below and keep the right part
14- Leave the piece of grip above the comssa backplug
15- With water or lubricant, push hard the comssa backplug into the CT cap and put the tect ring
16- Push the latest part into the BT barrel on both side and you are done ╰(*°▽°*)╯
Below is my latest version using metal bra oring instead of tect rings.
