6 Dollar Montblanc Rollerball from a Pilot G2

This 6 Dollar Montblanc Rollerball is made from a Pilot G2 and a Montblanc refill. -- A Montblanc rollerball pen costs between $200 and $400. This $6 pen writes just as good and uses the same Montblanc refill.
Yes! the Montblanc Rollerball refill does dry out.
There are many great inexpensive get pens out there.
This was just an experiment.

Why would you ever want to do this? Montblanc isn't any better then pilot in...that's just dumb

[jukejeff]

@19Bokeh84 Dumb? Watch my next pen video, I will show you how to put a Pilot G2 refill into Montblanc pen.

[shavefan12]

How fast will it dry out if not capped? How do you get the ink flowing again after it dries out?

[jukejeff]

@shavefan12 It would depend on the heat and humidity, but mine pens have lasted about 2 months.

[shingabo]

Are you using mont blanc fine point for this project?

[jukejeff]

@shingabo I used both fine and medium.

[qacermacer]

why not just use the pilot one instead?

[MrporkinzLOL]

I accidently bought the smaller mont blanc refill

[subtleserveyor]

You sounds a little bit like Andy Roony.

[RustyDaleShackleford]

Agreed. Why would you ever want to do this?

The Pilot G2 is my favorite pen of all time, and writes great, but is cheap enough that it's not a big deal if it gets lost.

@indyur1 They're known for their luxury pens. They're particularly famous for their Meisterstuck brand, which rings in at $600 minimum for fountain, ~$250 for rollerball.

i totally feel u bro. yesterday i just transformed 2 disposable pens into refillable just by enlarging the hole at the tip and by making some adjustments on the inside. most people don't care what they write with, but for me it is very important for a pen to feel both comfortable, not wiggling and to be refillable. something like a perfect pen.

Its quite stupid to get a pilot shell and a montblanc refill you will just look desperate

[indyur1]

Can someone tell me whats so good about a montblanc pen?

[Zlykin]

@19Bokeh84 watch 2:10 to 2:20. If you like the g2, THAT much, you dont have to do this, but this guy just saved some people about 190 bucks.

No offense, but u shud say "MONT BLANC" not "mot bloc"... just saying
