Whats that red thing under the tip? On with a wafer?

no. it comes complete and is an integral part of the tip. it is not a separately fitted item.

I think it's just one of these http://www.pro9.co.uk/html/theprosho...t&pid=TIPX0006

it's not

Could it be one of Mike's new prototype tips?

yes. but work in progress still...

I know this red "layer" from Tweeten´s Triumph tips. They are very good to glue.
But this one looks different.

you're right, it is different.

i'm the only person involved in the design and making of these tips and i've never even seen a triumph tip, so i had no idea they actually had a red layer.

but it's not rocket science. it's a form of laminated tip, and there are plenty of them about, so i guess ultimately it's a similar thing.

Could be, in the blackspin thread, page 61, post #608, Mike mentions working
on a coloured layer to tell where the blackspin ferrule ends, and the blackspin tip begins.

Maybe I'm fully blackspun!!

yes. i was forced to rethink the original all black tip cos it was very difficult to see where the ferrule ended and the tip started. perfectly good tip, looks great on brass ferrules, just not practical on the blackspin ferrule.

but also, in developing the layer idea, some benefits became apparent and i believe it will lead to a superior finished product.

so yes, you have what is potentially the final complete product. although i am still tinkering...

No idea, I remember Mike mentioning something about tips with a coloured band near or on the base . . .

Maybe Mike could fill us in ?

Just received My cue back from Mike's blackspin conversion factory

The wormanship is really top drawer stuff, not just the fit of the ferrule ( system ),

but the free MOT & refinish. . . and most importantly, it plays better IMHO .

Thanks Mike
