MAINTAINING YOUR TIP:
PART 2: SCUFFER
I use the Kamui Gator. There are alternatives to this brand that seem to work well. I've had mine for years.
Hold the scuffer against the tip as you roll your shaft with your other hand. I brace the cue against my foot while doing this. This tool is not intended to be used as sandpaper. By rolling the surface of the tip against the scuffing surface, the surface lifts the tip fiber allowing it to hold chalk again WITHOUT removing a bunch of tip material. To clean the scuffer simply slap it against you pant leg or a rag. This tool you will use the most.
The trimmer described in part 1 should only be used to take a little off the sides to maintain a shape, not surface.

MAINTAINING YOUR TIP:
I use two tools to maintain my tip.
1.) TIP SHAPER/TRIMMER
2.) TIP SCUFFER
PART 1: SHAPER/TRIMMER
I like the metal (not plastic) tool offered by Tweeten. This allows me to bend one end to a nickel shape and the other end to a dime shape. Using a downward motion only while turning the shaft, trim a little off the sides. Brace the cue with the outside of your foot.
There will be a little Burr left behind after a trim. Simply use a rag, pinch the tip, and give it a few twists. The Burr will disappear.

These cues are the last of the brand new Dale Perry cues I have left to sell. I put leather wraps on some of the cues. If you would rather have leather instead of linen on any of the linen wrapped cues, just add the discouned price of $60, normally $100, to the price of the cue. Message me if you're interested.
