I have absorbed alot over the yrs as My area is not known for people paying $$$ for simple stuff, and I grew up in a family business where your family name is on the final product, and sometimes people simply cannot afford it at the time....so you help a guy/girl out.... I always try to soften...

try the torch method, if it doesn't work....make room in a freezer and leave it for 24 hrs, then try it again

Due to the heating costs, and electric hike in my area I had to finally (after 15 yrs), raise my repair prices. Didn't want to, but had no choice.

put a picture up and you may get actual responses.....cannot tell without looking at what you are referring to

This is the style I was talking about.....tried it for doing wraps and I thought the same....little to no torque.

sewing machine motor is as light as it gets....I personally would not use it, but know some that do.

he is actually not incorrect....someone sanded and then applied a substance that will 'corral' the fibers that were created by sanding, but only for a short time. Watching a youtube video only shows that moment....not down the road a few weeks where the sweat/oils of one's hands undo what was...

did you find one yet? I have one I can spare......it's 1/2 x 13 tpi

there are alot of cheap asian cues out there now that use a ferrule material that is a high temp polymer. Because of that trait, most CA's and other glues do not stick well or long to them.You can score the sh#$ outta them and still pop it off. Try CA40 from 3M or Dap rapid fuse...they are both...

glad I have some maple trees.....among other sources thru the yrs......😉

Very simple job for any competent cue repair guy. I am in Ma. if you still need someone

okay folks...this is 'ask the cuemaker' section, NOT 'Discuss Covid' Section. Everyone has opinions/facts etc and can be shared in the Main Forum section....but this thread is about tips falling off and how to remedy that issue

For those that are just begining their journey of tip replacement......this video shows a uneven(scored if you will) surface joint and a perfectly flat surfaces joint....

To anyone that uses Solarez, and purchases thru their website...try Amazon.....FREE Shipping, save some $$$. Just put an order in and was shocked at the shipping, almost the same price as the finish....canceled and ordered thru Amazon and got 2 quarts for $10 more then the 1 quart total from...

I myself, will not go back to them...have moved on to better tips that are very consistant and hit the same or better, depending on who you ask..... Got tired of installing then removing those POS tips...even after the float test and banging them on a hard surface. Just not worth the...

Joey, it was the same user selling it. I just want to try it as a sealer, but not at such stupid shipping prices. Even buying direct from epoxyexperts.com they still want $25 shipping....bullshit

Okay...WTF? Same seller..... Same 2 listings BUT two different shipping costs....SMH First one Second one Which is $10 cheaper than the first shipping charge. Also found this one, but not sure if it's the same epoxy...sounds similar. So damn confusing and complicated for no good reason IMO. Dave

Sadly, they only have every other type of Max epoxy, not the 1618.
