Authorized Kamui Installer
- Thread starter BJTyler

anyone that can install a tip can install a kamui. nothing really special about it (installation wise that is)
point taken...so do you have any experience with this installer?
kamui
All any repairman has to do to become kamui installer is e mail his picture standing next to a lathe to John Bertone the USA Kamui rep.
And wham bam thank you man you are now a official Kamui dealer and authorized kamui installer....:thumbup:

Unless policy has changed, John requires a video to be sent in. I have the email to verify him saying video. So either policy has changed(which I doubt) or you're providing misinformation again.
E mailed in a picture of myy self and one of my lathe's
It was just a picture of me and one of my lathes ................................
I would remember and your not John B
You assumed and at least you are wrong about his policy when I signed up.
But you know what happens when you assume and your wrong.
You just make a fool out of yourself .
Call John up and find out for sure before you say I am wrong......

This is my email received from John Bertone on June 24, 2012 at 1:35 PM.
So like I said, his policy must have changed.
Your lathe. I guess pictures weren't enough to show that's your lathe is why he now requires proof that you know how to work on a lathe with a video.
You guys sound like my bickering kids. Im sick that I read this crap. It's a tip. My 6 year old probably could do it.
lathes
I don't know what the problem is.
I have enough lathes that me and you couldn't keep them all operating at the same time.
If you don't like the fact that I only had to send pictures to John of me standing by one of my lathes or that I am a authorized kamui tip installer then take it up with John.
Why are you busting my chops when all I did is do what I was told to do by John Bertone to become a authorized dealer ?

You might want to check your rep too. He gave me a red rep yesterday
for what reason I don't know. Must be the wrong time of the month for
him or her. I can tell this person has got to be young 'cause he/she is
certainly childish. Even more than me................:thumbup:
And yeah...I just needed a picture of my lathe and tooling.

I spoke with the installer in question and he informed me that he does not use a lathe for the installation, so I'm not sure what the actual Kamui policy is or isn't.
Having said that, people have posted on this thread as to how simple and trivial it is to install a good tip. I must disagree. I have personally seen both good and bad tip installs. And the last thing I want is to spend $30-$40 on a tip install only to be dissatisfied.
If he doesn't use a lathe you might want to keep looking but it shouldn't be too tough to find a guy in your area who can install a tip properly.
Go to your local "players" pool hall. Find the better players. Ask them who does their tips, and look at their cues.
Sometimes the pool hall will offer their own tip service. But you want to ask the players because the pool halls cue repair service may not be as good (or even close) as the guy the good players go to.
