Use a single foot guilde wrapped on at the tip of the blank. Works great!

If you want Recoil, Dan lists them as one of his suppliers in his catalog and Recoil does make a 3.5 tip-top in a small loop design. You might also try to order direct from REC as they are a sponsor and I have had good service from them in the past. Actually, they are the reason I found this site in the first place.
Could the moderator of this site remove the name of Lynn Leary and email of lleary00@hotmail.com as I have tried, unsuccessfully, to log on many times and it will not allow it. I have tried a false name and it was just deleted eventhough I requested some assistance and had stated the problem. I never got the welcome e-mail and have never been able to log on or post. The first name used in this post is my middle name so I hope I have not broken any of the boards rules and I am again respectfully requesting some assistance.
Thank You
Lynn

A confirmation email was sent to you. You will have to disable your spam or junk mail filter to allow it to make it through to you. All I can do is send the confirmation, you have to allow it to make it through to you.
