Does anybody know where i can purchase some tipping wafers from, please help.

after this thread http://www.thesnookerforum.com/board...ghlight=waffer a couple of months ago, there wasnt any good sources (unless the thread starter found some from old storage in clubs)

I have some pads that are to be put between the tip and the ferrule.
What does a wafer look like, is that just a thick layer of special glue?

you knock a pin in it ( for holding) then immerse in boiling water for 2 minutes , it softens ,then place on ferrule, and then put tip on top, leave 24 hours to set.
better than any glue & acts as a shock absorber, & tip never falls off. it looks like a small piece of plastic 2-3 cm thick and same size as tip

If you just want a thick gel like layer of glue, how about epoxy?

Well, apart from mayby, elderly gentleman from the local club may have some, I have not seen any in anyshop in town or on the internet. Mayby Thurstons or Peradon may have some in their cellars!
