Hello,

i am looking for information about selfmade multilayered tips. I've made already first trials and it seems very interesting and worth continuing more experimentations. Can anybody tell me details about how a tip like Moori M or similar ones are made?

- sufficient glues
- possible pretreatments of the leathers
- types of leathers working or not working

Many thanks
 
Geehrte Michael, ich glaube if all the points you mentioned were open to the public Moori and Kamui manufacturers would have gone broke ;)

:) In my hometown they say: "Wer nicht fragt bleibt dumm" and "Fragen kostet nichts"

I'm sure there are many others like me who want to manufacture multilayered tips or already do. But maybe a few or none of them want to share information. We will see, in a few days i will receive samples of a spezial industrial from italy ...
 
Nice guy, thanks for translation.

Maybe there are people who can share general information about possibilities in leather treatment:

- How to increase the hardness of leathers
- Possibilities of leather impregnation?
- different types of glues fitting to leather materials.

Although second hand information I was told by someone was was there that one of the secretes of the Moori is they glue up the layers one at a time. In other words it is not a big stack of leather all squashed together. One is done, dries, then the next is added and so on. That may account for the layers being so perfect. I have seen other tips where the layers look like a jumble with some layers thicker then others I guess due to the way they are glued up and pressed. Doing them one at a time also would make it easier to get the gluing done nice and evenly without any gobs between layers and prevent de-laminating.
 
Glueing up layer by layer is for sure a good principle, especially if they use not only pressure while glueing but also heat.
