I think I’m finally gonna drill that 35mm hole in my Obsidian. Having both that and the Dragon makes me feel a bit better about if anything happens to go wrong. Anything special to be careful of with the Obsidian compared to other sticks? Seems to have a very thick black plexi.
I recently drilled out a Panthera which has a similar plexi glued to the top and it was ok for the most part. I couldn’t remove the top panel easily like I could with my HRAP V so it was a bit of a pain. I’d recommend taking the panel off first before drilling if you can. I also cracked the plexi while I was drilling. Not a big deal since I was going to get a new one anyway but you’d obviously want to avoid it if you can. I was drilling from the inside which was probably the right choice but I was a bit lazy and rushed it a little. Go slowly and let the drill do the work. Best of luck.
someone tried to replace the fujin rubber grommet with a another tension?
Hey what’s the difference between a soft and medium fanta grommet in terms of measurement?
I used the Golden Fanta grommets with the Fujin. Personally feels better for me. Take note that the white plastic bushing does contribute to tension too.
From @ykd he said that the soft is a Shore A rating of 30 while the medium is 40.
I mean, what’s the difference between soft and medium fanta grommet in terms of dimension? I ordered 4 medium grommets off etokki website but the thickness is the same as the soft grommet my taeyoung came with, whereas the medium grommet that came with my myoungshin is thicker by 100 micron (0.1 mm). The tension also feels soft but it’s hard to tell.
don’t worry 0.1mm variance is still normal, you won’t notice any different.
@wazwuz how do I know that I received the right grommet? I feel like the medium grommets I received feel very similar to the soft ones. That’s why I wanted to know if there’s some way to distinguish the soft from the medium aside from just the feel of it
Also, I’m interested in the golden fanta mod kit. There is different shaft diameters, will I be able to swap the bat top from my myoungshin/taeyoung to the shafts you provide? Because I didn’t think the bat tops were removable. Also, the switches don’t sit evenly on the base of my myoungshin. Will the switch support set fix this issue?
@blankaex i dont really understand , how did you buy the Green lever i was vacations in Korea and with some well known players support and help with the knowledge , were were like begging the old guy to sell 1 green lever i even offered 1000 euro revelant to won and he said he doesnt sell them…
you will need tools called Durometer shore A. you can bought it on Ebay pretty cheap.
myungshin/taeyong battop is not removable. Golden mod using sanwa Battop instead.
yes, there are switch mounting to make the switches sits flat on myungshin
@Marios I dunno man, my friend told me he literally took a photo of the lever and brought it to Green mum and asked “Sale?” and she called the owner to come in and build them for him. When were you in Korea? Maybe they changed their policy recently.
i hope he start to sell this levers, i got a lever from green years ago when ldmaxi was in Korea
I ordered a fujin from makestick before they sold out a few weeks ago. I didn’t hear anything so I check the site and it said my package was shipped and delivered. I checked tracking and it says it was delivered to Las Vegas…I live in Sacramento, California… 
Emailed the address on their site a few days ago and haven’t heard back yet…I’m really sad
How long ago was it delivered?
tracking says it was left with an individual on 12/27/2017
The Grommets are usually always identical man. The soft and medium are both black and for better or worse look the same. Like @wazwuz said if you’re that concerned and can’t tell by feel (I can tell. Put a Bushing inside and bend, you should be able to notice) then definitely get a Durometer. If you’re expecting a serious difference between 10 shore it’s not exactly bang on and with the +/- Tolerance of 5 shore with a Durometer, you have to just learn it with feel and experience. The only ones you’re going to find for sale of different color are on Makestick / IST or the units in the Golden Fanta kit. That are color coded.
I assume they sent you the wrong tracking number and didn’t send you a unit or probably put the wrong address. Check your PayPal to make sure if the money was processed and make a dispute if so.
@Marios Yeah, that’s the plan. When I’m back from holiday next month and have access to my tools I’ll share all of the measurements, maybe take some pictures or make a video as well.
I got the golden fanta today.
first I tried green arcade set up(7mm shaft,14.5mm actuater, golden core, clear silicone Myung shin body panasonic switches) = It was hard for me to do 1,3,7,9. I made a lot of error when doing diagonals.
than I swapped the actuater to 15mm. diagonal inputs were a lot better than 14.5mm.
than I tried on Tae young body. 8mm shaft,14.5mm actuater, golden core, clear silicone, panasonic switches). feels very similar to Myung shin with 15mm actuator.
my go to set up is (8mm shaft, 14.5mm actuator, golden core medium spring, and clear silicone,panasonic switches on Tae young)
I was surprised that Green arcade setup is not what I expected.
is anyone use 7mm shaft with 14.5mm actuator on Myung shin? how is your diagonals?
