    Any pictures of the burnisher?

    Sounds like a handy tool.
    If it is called " Common sense " why is it so rare???

            One bit of advice keep the inside of the burnisher clean ! I burnished 4 cues from my collection and it was amazing how much dirt built up inside the cylinder dont know if this would effect its performance but just a small point to think about.

              I managed to twist the tip right of my cue, being too heavy handed i suspect, or it was poorly fitted in the first place, all been fine for a while now though.

                You must have been pressing DOWN REAL HARD and the tip burnisher sort of turned into a spanner and wrenched the tip off I found it best just to hold burnisher by the sides with not that great amount of pressure and just spend a little more time twisting it dont try and force it just let the friction do the work.

                    I have learned from past mistakes that great care with anything regarding tipping e.c.t. pays off plenty of masking tape round cue when re-tipping or shaping that slight slip of the hand puts glue where you dont want it or a scratch in your ferrule or worse still your cue, always make sure your knife is razor sharp it saves a lot of grief when removing and trimming tips.

                      Shame they don't make them slightly smaller for pool cue tips as well.

                            Neil,

                            I just thought to look it up on ADR's EBay site. It's a teflon coated plastic tube(so I've answered my own question).

                            I just rec'd. mine in the mail yesterday along with an ADR tip (and metal case). Yes, it seems to work quite well.

                            Cheers, Wayne
