Yesterday I spent a lot of hours making five acrylester and rhino-plasti pens. By the end of the day, I was tired from the patience (sometimes not my strong suit) required and tired of resin.
However, the drudgery did give me an idea of how to get rid of the dozens of rubber comfort grips I have yet to put on a pen:
Two grips fit perfectly on one slimline tube. Put a spot of glue on each end of the tube. Slide the grips on the tubes; narrow end of the grip on the ends of the tube (adds a little contour/taper). In about two minutes you have a ribbed rubber pen (the slimline cb fits well).
I'm sure I'm not the first to do this and it doesn't belong on probably any website as no turning is required but it added just the right amount of comic relief for the day. What are others doing with the comfort grips they don't use on a comfort pen?
Enjoy,
john
