    What's the best glue to use for in between layers of a tip?

    Thanks for the info and the video was interesting too. I'm wondering if I should cut my half glued tip apart and re-glue each layer with a different glue once I get it or just start over but the layers are still good. I actually glued oversized circle pieces of the leather and then cut it down...

    What's the best glue to use for in between layers of a tip?

    Also what about a super glue gel that is flexible? I have some loctite stuff I wanted to try, I'd just rather get some opinions first before I ruin a lot of leather lol. Thanks, Tim

    What's the best glue to use for in between layers of a tip?

    I noticed like titebond and titebond 2 and 3 lol which is the best? Also, why not leather glue? I guess its for fixing leather and synthetic garments.

    What's the best glue to use for in between layers of a tip?

    So I recently tried elmers wood glue just because that is all I had and some layers didn't hold together. Anyone know what big tip companies use??

    What are some good choices for a leather break tip?

    Sounds awesome! Can't wait to put it on! It'll need cutting down the edges after some play then? I think I remember you saying that?

    What are some good choices for a leather break tip?

    Sorry Chris I just checked my mailbox now and got it! Thanks a lot! I really appreciate it! Sorry if I was pushy, I'm shooting in a big amateur tournament in Williamsport, PA this weekend and wanted to get my break tip squared away in time. If you want and get the time feel free to send business...

    What are some good choices for a leather break tip?

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I wasn't a big fan of phenolics. I seem to lose the control and usually pop the cue off the table. With the samsara I seem to be able to get a better break like you are saying because I can control more of the cue ball hitting below the equator of the head ball...

    Do I have a fake Talisman tip??

    Ok so I got confirmation from Tony at Talisman through email: Hi Tim, Sorry to hear you are having problems. May I ask where you purchased the tips from? This would help in finding out if the tips are genuine. BTW we did produce tips for a customer that was marked with USA. Look forward to...

    Do I have a fake Talisman tip??

    Well you can get them pre domed or normal...the pics aren't the best. The light over the pool table was making it hard to picture them. Yea so the one on the left is darker than the others, and that other one says USA, the others don't. Just was wondering about he USA because they are made in...

    Do I have a fake Talisman tip??

    I bought these from a member on here probably like a year ago. I'll have to look into it more if you would want the exact member name.

    Do I have a fake Talisman tip??

    I bought like 9 Talisman mediums on azb about a year ago and I looked at what I had left and noticed the one says talisman M and USA underneath the M. The others don't and there is another one that is a darker color than the rest. I was never satisfied with these tips. They seemed to glaze easy...

    Why do I still like the Moori tip even though they are apparently junk??

    I sort of agree with people getting fake Mooris that are sub par quality which is helping the "Mooris are junk" rumor. I just found out that the guy who put my buddies tips on recently got a tin or box of new Mooris and he apparently put some on and could tell that much of a difference that he...

    Why do I still like the Moori tip even though they are apparently junk??

    Thanks for the information everyone. And yea I tried Everest as well and just thought it was too hard with not as much energy transfer. I feel like the Moori is the most elastic and it slingshots the cue ball off of it almost. I've tried just about every tip there is and something resonates...

    Why do I still like the Moori tip even though they are apparently junk??

    On two seperate days of shooting I have always put one of my buddies schon shafts on my schon and always loved how it felt and hit. This happened with two different shafts but both had moori mediums on them. I believe he got them installed like 6 months to 1 year ago. So they arent the old...

    Larry Nevel breaks like a cannon

    Lol I've done that a few times. Once breaking a 9 ball rack on a 9 footer the cueball shot straight up at a 90 degree angle from the table and busted a light bulb above the table. Another time I was breaking in a bar 8 ball league and the cue ball hit the head ball and jumped over the rack...

    Hey Chris thanks for the reply. I just sent you an email. Didn't know how to send you a msg on Facebook, it wouldn't let me. Thanks, Tim

    What are some good choices for a leather break tip?

    Thanks. I was supposed to get a sample Outsville Solid break tip for about 2 years now and was really looking forward to it, but it seems like Chris stopped allowing people to pm him so I can't get a hold of him. And I was just talking to him in the thread about it and said I'd buy it even, but...

    What are some good choices for a leather break tip?

    I have an original ob break cue and I have a second or third samsara break tip on it. It is down to almost the carbon fiber pad because every so often it seems to lose a layer in the middle. Almost seems like the glue dried up and it pops a layer off and I have a volcano tip lol. So whats...

    Hustlers Season 2

    I watched the first season and thought it was alright. Any exposure for pool is good. I have Finnegan on facebook and lately all he can do is bad mouth Mike Dechaine and its just rude. Not just poking fun at him or anything. So honestly he seems like a crooked douche to me and I would rather not...
