  • The cue tip is the most essential part of the cue. Itis the only part, which has direct contact to the ball. Hence it must withstand huge forces, which are trying to tear it off. And by time this happens also to me.
    I have observedthe fatigue of the leather and when it failed fainally I try today the first time to replace it by my own.

    If you're suing fast drying glue my friend you can just use your thumb and press it down. Hold for 15seconds - 30 seconds and then you can release your thumb.
    The rubber band will slide the tip aside because it's still wet and hasn't have a chance to hold.

      Yes, now I have done it the second time and as you've said, 15 s is sufficient to fix it. I have anyhow compressed it with my desk. Got that after Dan has sen me a video of Dr. Dave

    I do tips. If I was there I could have done it for you or guided you along. Great video, though!

      What is your procedure? How do you bring the tip down to the correct diameter?

      @ I use a router with a flush bit to get a rough diameter cut and tip shape. I then turn the shaft with a drill (using a special adapter) and do the finish diameter and tip shaping with a razor. I also turn the shaft in the drill for finish sanding and buffing. When I lived in LA and played more often I had a nice client base. I have a mobile tip replacement shop in the trunk of my car lol! I'd get a shaft and do a tip while they were still inside shooting a game or hanging out. I moved to NJ in a more rural area so now I pretty much just do my own tips.

    No se puede usar una goma elástica para sujetar la suela, solo tienes que poner la flecha boca abajo y el propio peso de la flecha es suficiente para pegar bien la suela

      Sí, sin guiar sólo la goma fue una mala idea. Puede ser que haga una herramienta de guiado.

    I've tried replacing the tip myself twice. Both times it fell off after my first shot at the club 😂

      🤣 you were one step ahead. How did you make the outer diameter? Did you use a big pencil shaver?

      @ After the tip had been glued on I used a box cutter to trim the excess & sandpaper to finish it.
