At school, I think we made a similar item of what your describing. We called them penetrators. Get it? We took out the ink cartridge and flipped it so it came out of the back of the pen. Next we either got rubber bands or the built in spring and attached in a way so that when we pulled the back of cartridge and released it would 'fire.' They were extremely lethal. After one or two were made, the whole grade caught on so we went to the shops buying the items needed to make them. One day we had a relief teacher, an old lady with a temper. Some idiots started firing the ink cartridges at her, thankfully missing, but hit the data projector screen instead. They got caught, and the teachers did a search of our bags and pencil cases, one kid had an assembly line in his bag for mass production. So, yeah that was grade 8 for me. We didn't have school shootings, we had penetrators.

You really are a Jared Owen fan! I remember you from many other videos!

Back in the 1950s we had push button light switches in our home. Press once for ON; press again for OFF. To make things more complicated, 120 volts was passing through there somewhere.

The best pens are the ones you can take apart to turn into cannons. Just put the spring between the button and the cam and hope the pen has some sort of lip that the cam fits behind but can be pushed past with enough force. The Pilot pens seem to be the best for this, but you'll need to do extra modifications if you don't want your parts to go missing.

I'm another person who wanted to fix my favourite pen that I dropped and broke. But the whole video was fascinating. I love pens. I hope you still enjoy making these animations.

my god it took me like an hour to figure out how to put together a pen that was broken, the entire time I thought that the cam went on the top, nope! lol. I would have never guessed, so I took apart one of the other pens. Engineering ftw! It was a very satisfying feeling to get something to work again. That was a work out for my head.

He should do a video series on how a modern car works. That should give him plenty of content between the engine structure, the door mechanisms, the windshield mechanisms, the gearbox, etc. Plus, he can use the car radio/GPS to take a break on the car and explain how they work.

Thank you. Everyone pen I disassembled had something covering this part

I'm building a revolver-style T-shirt air cannon for a robotics team. Thank you for explaining this mechanism so well, I'm planning use a modified one of these to rotate the revolver drum, driven by the barrel sliding forward and back. Cheers!

This is a really nice video. Now I know something I tried to know for so many years. Thanks a lot. Great way to explain really complex mechanism

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I took apart a pen and couldn’t figure out how to put it back together and I watched this and put it back perfectly (I don’t know how though, the pen was so much different from the one showed but still a click pen) thank you 😊

Me, already opening clicky pens millions of times: *I'm 4 parallel universe ahead of you*

I was never aware of the hidden guide edges which prevents the cam from sliding back while the pen tip is extended. The other parts we can easily see when we pull the pen apart. Life mystery finally solved thank you. (This video also made me pull apart a pen I had on my desk!)

kudos for you animation work and your efforts..it is simple, good and easier to understand. Never knew a clik pen had such good mechanism :)

Very good animation, it explains the movement of the moving parts with very accurately!

I follow the mechanisms as you stated and my pen works. Thank you

excellent demonstration. I have a vintage clicky pen I'm trying to fix. now I know it's probably the cam that's messed up.

hey man your videos are awesome.and the way you explain it is commendable.3D animation has revolutionised learing .with the help of this we can easily understand the complex mechanism.KZread is becoming the next school for students.keep it up.love from India💕

That's crazy!!! I was just thinking about that today at school!!!! I figured it out, but I'm still watching for some reason...

It was interesting. Thank you, Jared Owen, for making this video because I use to think for hours to together thinking about a click pen.

This kind of pen i understand, the type of ped i dont understand are the pens with the plastic wedge between the button and ink cartridge. It like switches sides and somehow is... idk blah

phenomenal video, very thorough, thankyou

Thank thank you I did not know what was the cam for, you saved my life Because my favourite pen fell apart.thank you 😊

Amazing video! Great work, really helped me understand how the pen works.

This was so helpful! The 3-D imagery of the components allowed me to fix my dad's pen, which was given to him as a souvenir from my sister's trip to London. :-)

Enjoyed it.. thanks. Nice work.

i found a clicky pen that works in this exact way, and it's kinda clear, and i just watched it click and saw the cam rotate never noticed it before, that's really cool

I always wanted to know about the principle working inside the body, Thankyou for this informative video.

I am fascinated how much people doesn't understand how something so easy as clicky pen works. Even kids in elementary school that disassembled it for few times can figure out how it works. But it's interesting to see it from the inside.

Easy to understand. Thank you

Thanks I needed to fix my favorite pen, I literally just needed to watch 1 minute to fix it thanks for the vid buddy!

Thank you for making this video. I’ve always wondered about this, before I saw this, I thought that maybe it had two cams and each cam was the same kind of cam that’s converts the linear motion on a steam locomotive. I thought that the button press moved the cam, which converted the linear motion into rotational motion, and that that rotational motion turn a wheel whose rotation was restricted to one direction via a ratchet, and the movement of that wheel was attached to a second cam, which converted the rotational movement back into a linear movement. But I was always dubious of that, because these pens never get jammed. So thanks for clearing that up.

This was awesome, thank you.
