I've long said that I prefer Gorilla glue for tips. It gives a little something extra in the "hit" department.;) As everyone knows the downside is you have to wait overnight for it to set up...so about the only tips that get it are my personal cues or players who don't mind waiting until tomorrow. The Gorilla glue sticks to any hard to glue ferrule (LOL...I may try delrin as a test) and you'll never have a tip pop off, plus it takes away a lot of the "tink" sound that some don't like. Well here is the news...picked up a new bottle...presto...new formula. It now cures in about an hour! Did a couple today...wow, great stuff...better now. While it still won't replace CA for ease & speed...I'll use it quite a bit more now. If you haven't tried it...now is the time. Be sure to read the label though as I'm sure there is a lot of old stock still on the shelves.:)

Are you talking to me or the cuemakers section in general? Generally best to ask prices in a pm unless its an open to all question. I don't have enough time to turn down all my wood...much less someone else's. As for "hit"...I myself would pass on building a solid 1pc bem butt.;)
If you are buying that much wood then you should have your own means of turning it down/making cues...JMO.
