Rod repair

Does anyone work on rods in the Shreveport/Bossier area? I have a custom MHX that the tip needs repaired.

Post a pic and I can probably walk you thru fixing it yourself.

I will have to post a picture when I get home. The ceramic came out of the grove on the tip is all that is wrong.

Yep, the tip top will have to be replaced.  The rings are pressed in.

Do you know where I can get that done at?

It's pretty easy to do yourself. I've done my own tip tops with just a lighter, a pair of needle nose and a hot glue stick.

FD is the expert here. He may have a better way so I'll let him do the talking.

I don't. Mudhole may have a list of builders in your area.
