Tips for broken tips?
#5
[#0000FF]Don't go shaving down the remaining tip section...or you will have another broken tip soon/[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]Don't know where you live, but if you want to come by my place I build and repair rods...and if you have the extra tips and the hot-melt glue...it is quick and painless. I only charge for the tip if it has to be replaced. Otherwise, if your tip is salvageable but too small for the broken end, I will just swap it out with you...if it is still in good condition.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]Your broken off tip inside is probably anchored in place with hot melt glue. Try holding it in a pair of long-nosed pliers over a candle or lighter (or stove burner) until it starts to smoke a little. Then you can use a needle or something up inside to pry it out. But you have to have some of that rod tip glue to reinstall it or put on a new one.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]At any given time I have a bunch of tips of most common sizes.
