Drip Tips

The Storm has passed... I have cleaned the deck with the blower and around the house... time to go into the boathouse aka workshop and see if I can shorten some Siam 510's so there is no gap on the Dvarw's. The 510 hole of the Dvarw's is a little shallower than most other RTA's with the result that some off the older Siam tips have a gap which of course is unacceptable.

I did try with the Dremel some time back but the high speed heated up the metal too much and the acrylic started to melt... so today I went manual. Popped the tip into the little vice and used a metal flat file... was a lot easier than I anticipated.

Sadly I lost a tip from the heat as well .
We don’t talk about it.
 
Whoops! Dropped the Dani Mini with Dvarw DL. The Siam tip took one for the team and came off second best!

I tend to prefer 510 drip tips rather than 810's even for a RDL draw when i do use an 810 my biggest bug bare is low profile, in fact 510's or 810's i hate it when any part of my lips come into contact with the top-cap!

It was time to Pit Stop the drip tips because of dust collection... so they were all washed in sunlight liquid and rinsed thoroughly and then put in the sun on a towel to dry... as were the drip tip holders.
I have a contact for a great shrink... Shes great. :meparto:all jokes aside marvelous collection. The museum of fish.

All clean and dry.
