looks like the predator C8 shaft that was launched for the China heyball domestic market

Welcome back! Baby steps first.. it will heal up

G2 are great tips. Slightly cheaper than zan or kamui tips. Be careful of getting fakes from online though. Buy from reputable sources.

very nice pics. i could not get the same result, possibly because i am just using leather and turning it slowly by hand. the beeswax made the tip a little greasy too. anyway i decided to leave it alone. thanks for posting the pics tho

I do have some bees wax lying around. Maybe i will try with paper towels instead of leather. Thanks

Does anyone has some pictures of a well burnished triangle tip? I used spit and old piece of leather but it doesn't bring out any shine..

heard they are clearing orders from 2006/2007 now.

Oh great, who's gonna moderate this forum now!! Haha just kidding. Good luck Bob

that is quite plausible. i'll have to tell him not to leave any old tip during the next install i wouldnt have noticed it if not for the unusually loud ping during normal play yesterday.

i have a williard tool too, great tool.. i seldom shape my tip. i always feel tips are supposed to be self shaping during play. But its a great nifty tool to bring along and can fit in any cue case.

thank you !! thats good to know, i remembered you mentioned not to remove the red pad before. maybe i got a fake G2, which kinda explains the poor layer quality and the glossed up surface.

yup, the tip is becoming glossy, i am ok with this as i chalk frequently. its a G2 medium for whats its worth, it played decent until i saw the damaged area Hu i think i'll take your advice and just slap on a new tip. i think the red pad needs to stay on though. there's some predator warranty...

Yes the sliver looks huge enough to bother me. I remembered the previous triangle tip i put on didnt have this issue.

There is a red silencer pad that came with the revo above the white line. The tip was installed above the red silencer pad, i think... It does looks bad and i kept blaming miscues and misses on this tip

Ahh sounds like the good old days. Did you win?
