Whats your favorite tip tool

I never heard of the Atrox tool either until now.

Looks kind of interesting http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/diamondback-atrox-pool-cue-tip-tool-147659447

"It's 10 essential tools in 1, sleek, durable and compact. Dime Radius Steel Alloy Shaper. Nickel Radius Steel Alloy Shaper. A Nickel Radius Gauge. A Dime Radius Gauge. The SAC Channel for Burnishing Any Size Tip / Ferrule from 12mm - 14mm. Steel Fangs for Tip Perforation to hold chalk better. Rail Height Caliper. Irish Linen Wrap Press. Shaft Dent Remover. Strike Positioner - Scientifically engineered for bridge elevation - when jacking up over balls and for jump shots."
 
Unfortunately, what I have found for me is that different tip tools do different things the best. So I find, I need multiple tools.

-TipPick for putting dimples in a tip
-Kamui Gator Grip for scuffing
-Cue Cube for shaping
-Slippy Tool (http://www.cuesight.com/slttst.html) takes off the overhang and mushrooming of a tip the best

(If a had to have, just one tip tool...it would be the slippy tool)

I like my ultimate tool for quick fixes for the price (mine was free). I wanted to get a George but don't feel it to be necessary now.
 
Cue shark said that it was out of stock.. The last4ever I seen that more than a few said that was your favorite tool how well does it do with mushrooms and does it hit the ferrule when doing it?
Thanks

If you're afraid it'll hit the ferrule when using that tool, just tape your ferrule up. :)

i havent had to trim mushrooming with my last4ever
here is a group of videos demomstrating how to use the last4ever

scroll down to using the mushrooming part
 
The two I've found to be most useful are the Last4Ever and the Willards. I used the Williard for years but then bought a Last4Ever and like it better.

Hey, Pete. I know the Willard's last a good long while, but how do you know that a Last4Ever will last forever? Wouldn't you have to be around to find out?
Kind of like a lifetime guarantee. Whose lifetime? :)

I've never seen one of these. It looks very interesting. Is it big?
I use the ultimate tip tool and its done fine for a little over a year now.

FYI - when/if the sandpaper segment comes out or loose on the Ultimate tool, use "Gorilla" glue to put it in and the segment will last forever.
