Need new tip tool.....

[8-ball Rat]

Hiya guys,

There I was.....minding my own business while scuffing up a couple tips...when lo-and-behold, I somehow punched a hole right through the middle of the nickel/dime scuffer!!!!!

I had no idea that was even possible...but now I've got a heavy brass paperweight!! Kinda a shame...that was one of the only pool-related items I had from my assignment in Germany. Oh, well...easy come, easy go.

Anyhow, I'm now in need of a new tip tool. A scuffer/shaper/etc. tool would be great....but there are a TON to choose from.

I keep seeing references to the It's George tip tool.......is that the way to go? How does the ultimate tip tool compare?

Please fill me in on any experience-based info you have....I'm gonna need to pick one up this week or VERY early next.

I use a Willard Flying saucer for shaping, I perfer the dime. I also use a tip-pik for better chalk adherance. I do have new ones for sale. They would cost $18 and would ship for free along with a Cue purchase. Otherwise I would need $22 delivered.
