Milk Dud Recipe

Milk fat ratio to casien is a factor. Skim milk will produce a harder tip than whole milk. Finding your own recipe takes a little experimenting.
 
I use triangle tips and soak them in virgin piss for a week and then squeeze them between my butt cheeks until they are dry............... smells bad but shoots great..............

I saw no mention of it in your post, but I hope your butt checks are virgin too!!
 
Soaking time is not long in my experience 24hrs too long, one quick lock down hard press not good ( leads to glazing in my experience along with whole milk ) had several complaints and was glad to have the feedback....properly soaked and pressed elk master makes a super playing tip also with a little time a great break tip.....try hitting a baseball with a sponge that's my opinion ....whats yours

If you buy something like this

You can reduce the soaking time to like a minute. You do not need to fill it with the milk, you can just put a shot glass inside with milk and tip in it and draw a vacuum.
 
Great 'article' on the 'cue' tip or the 'milk dud' as its 'referred' to in 'said article'. But for gods sake don't quote every other word.... Makes for 'hard' reading...

Kim's are very rare and hard to come by. At his age, virgin piss is very hard to find. :D
 
Here is my "DYI Hard Milk Dud Tip Recipe"
Using a Vise-Grip clamp and this:

1. Fill small microwaveable bowl with milk enough to cover one Elkmaster tip.
2. Heat in microwave set to high for 20 seconds.
3. Cool in microwave for 30 seconds.
4. Heat again for 10 seconds.
5. Let soak in microwave for 5 minutes.
6. Heat again for 10 seconds.
7. Let soak for another 5 minutes. (while soaking pre-heat oven to 150 deg.)
8. Rinse tip in cold tap water, and dry with paper towel.
9. Place tip in tip vise using the flat piston (not the domed one).
10. Compress in Vise-Grip clamp with adjusting knob set at 3/4 inch out.
11. Bake, (clamp and all) in oven for 30 minutes, then turn off oven, but leave
the the door closed.
12. After one hour or more, remove the tip from the vise/clamp and check thickness.

The Elkmaster tips are normally around .250" out of the box. After pressing as above,
mine are normally .180" +/- one or two thousanths.
I think sticking to a time table, and the consistent clamping pressure that the
Vise Clamp provides produces a consistant tip. You can adjust the clamp for a harder
or softer tip. I break and play with my shooter, using the above specs.
To me these tips feel, and sound like a hard tip, but grip like a medium.
I have never had one mushroom, even when used on a break cue. They rarely need reshaping.
If they glaze over, I give them a light scuffing. I practice or play every day, and
I expect at least a year before my tip will need replacing.

I would try these milk duds but I am afraid I would need cookies while I was playing. :grin-square:

Just wondering, is it okay to just soak the tip first in milk for a few days. Let it dry first then clamp like few months later?

Raw milk in my country is kinda hard to come back.
