I know that it's recommended to return the cue to Predator for tip replacement or find a qualified service tech. If I have to do that every time, I'll go back to the Z-2.
It can't be that much of an issue, can it? I tend to replace tips a little sooner than necessary because I lose confidence and it affects my stroke. That's why I've had the Willard Tipping Machine for the last couple years. It does just as well as a lathe in my experience. I've found that the Victory Soft tip is the best I've used so far. (subjectively speaking, of course.)
It seems to me that the only issues would be to be careful about grinding into the silencing pad and trimming the installed tip. If that's all the concern is about then I'll jump into it. I can't imagine there being a problem with chucking the shaft in the Willard clamps. They market it as the most durable shaft made.
Has anyone else replaced tips on Revo? Any problems with results?
