Simple stylus Mod.
I have made a few of these stylus pens from David (Timberbits) but always felt they were just a bit "top heavy" A simple fix I cut 7 mm off the cap end and it comes back to the more balanced slimline ,photo for comparison , using the only slimline I have (my wifes much used one) hehe. Cheers ~ John (the rifle clip is for an ex shooter
)
G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!

Good idea John. To make the stylus pen even less top heavy I leave the clip off most of the ones I make, I give people a choice and almost always they choose one without a clip.

Greg ,to the best of my knowledge any touch pad will work, these are an inductive type designed to work wherever you can use your finger as a contact. They work better than a finger in a lot of cases and don't smear your screen or are not affected by sweat etc. They are a very soft rubber type bubble so give easily as well to help stop any damage a harder substance may do .

That's a much better look. Less top-heavy.

Excellent idea, I haven't yet made a stylus pen that doesn't look silly. I'll have to try shortening the next one.
