Last 4 Ever Tip Tool

[Halfjack87]

Never used or owned a tip tool before.

After discovering that my cues should be nickel profiles instead of silver dollar profiles, I bought the Last 4 Ever combo tool. Had no problem shaping the tips, burnishing, and roughing the tip as shown in the video.

My old cue tips now all have good nickel profiles and hold chalk very well - of course that would probably be the case with any tool and maintenance vs. no tool, but I tried this tool first and it worked great for me. :smile:
When my new cue needs a touch-up I'll break in the dime side...

Thanks, I appreciate it. And thanks to all the AZB'rs who have support me over the past few years.

I just got in my first batch of factory made tip tools. After 5 years of grinding them out in my shop I gave up. Sadly for me, they do a much nicer job than I did.

Also updated my website last4ever.com

coming to a retailer near you soon (hopefully)

Thanks all,

Joel

Noticed you released a matte black finish version too for the dime.

 

[joelpope]

Yes, the matt black version is the Pro model, available in Dime radius & lighter abrasive than the original tool.

been using the pro version for over a month
works great on its own and a great compliment to the standard madel
the standard being a courser grit gets the shape faster but removes more leather
the pro is finer grit so really shapes and touches up the tip nicely without as much removal of the leather

I've got one of those 4ever tools and there's leather caked up in the grit. How do I clean it?

 

[joelpope]

Easiest way is with a old tooth brush

 

[jb1911]

Can I use water?

 

[joelpope]

Can I use water?

I would not use water. Any brush will work, old tooth brush, hair brush, something like that.

You can also use compressed air.

Unless you are shaping a lot of cues, build up shouldn't be an issue

Hey Joel I have a question-

Would you recommend to remove the chalk first off the tip before shaping or does it matter? I'm under the impression that I should remove the chalk first to reduce buildup on the shaper.

I don't bother removing the chalk. It wouldn't hurt but it is not necessary.
