I couldn’t find my perfect EDC pen – so I hacked it!( Fisher Bullet + Hi-Tec-C refill)

[admin]

NOTE: I modified a Hi-Tec-C COLETO (this are the thin/cheaper ones that are used for multi pens, not the standard Hi-Tec-C, the standard is too thick and will not fit)

I wanted a small pocket version of the Hi-Tec-C 0.4mm i love, unfortunately they just come in the big clear plastic case,I could buy one of the many Kickstarter pens but I was looking for something small I could carry in my pocket.

After some search, I decided the Fisher bullet pen, loved by many on the forum was the best option for me (it also came in matte black, and would blend in nicely with my EDC).

I used the new cheap Hi-tec Coleto refill, a smaller refill used for multi pens that has the name Hi-Tec-C performance that I love.

Making it was easy, I simply added some electric to mimic the Space pen refill, cut a small portion of the lenght of the cartridge (since I wanted the tip to come out a little, I took my time and cut 2-3 bits before I was happy with the lenght. I also added some tape to the tip, so it would fit snugly and would not move while writing. Its now as solid as my larger Hi-Tec-C.

I am really happy with it!
