I've been retipping cues for years, and all the guys in the pool league that are not confident come to me . I've replaced ferrules also with just basic tools . Just key to always have a sharp blade . Have watched lots of videos just for curiosity and I'd say yours is probably the best . Just a great basic tutorial with no faff , well explained with good visual .

Thanks so much for making this look so easy and simple, sick and tired of all the videos showing ppl with these machines that spin the cue, i mean cmn we not all pro cue tip installers, and im sure the pro tip installers dont need advice on how to install
-
This is brilliant thank you for uploading this. You have done a nice job of it I might give it a try as normally I get my mates to change the tip π

Very helpful. I was careful not to snag my shaft

This is a great video u make it look easy do u think I could use wire wool and sandpaper on my joint of my cue ?
-
Excellent video, very informative. I do have a question tho, I've recently bought a cue off Mark Williams at an exhibition and it doesn't have a tip, rather a sort of "filler tip" I guess you could call it. Its not soft like an actual tip, it's hard so I'm not sure if cutting it will work? I was wondering how would I go about removing it to actually install a proper tip?
-
Great video. How do I know when my tip needs replacing? Are there any common signs?
-
Hey there Cuebald, if I have a 9mm ferule, should I put an exact 9mm tip on there, its hard to get it right, or does it have to be bigger tip then trimmed down? which way is best? If it should be bigger, how much bigger? many thanks.
-
Also donβt forget to burnish the edge of the tip π stops it from collapsing in on itself.
-
I remember somebody gave me a wafer which you slightly Wet with water and placed it underneath the tip let it dry then glue the tip on top , the wafer was really thin and once you glued the tip on and sanded it all down etc it acted like a cushion or shock absorber and it did wonders for my game , donβt really know if they are still available , itβs defo worth a try and you will notice the difference straight away !

Thank you for this very elaborate video, i noticed some mildly deep scratches on top of the ferrule when my tip fell off, do you reckon i should sand it down or should i just install a new tip regardless?
