when do i use the little can top things

[rocker101]

u use the little things when it says 2 read the directions. Dahhhhhhh

[cathysmith]

how do you get the little black thing on the back of the pen off. I tried using a coat hanger jamming it in and that didn't work

[LarrySDonald]

Depends on the pen I guess. I pried it out with my nails. Anything sharp along the edge ought to work. If nothing else remains, I suppose cut a length off the end (hacksaw/diagonal cutters) or leave it on if you have a good way to get the thread through or a different way to attach the thread to the pen.

should the axles be a bit bigger then just a shell of a bic pen

[yoyo32]

Are you talking about taking all the stuff inside the pen, only using the outside shell?

[LarrySDonald]

Yes.
