Good tacker, fair shaper
By Anthony from TN on February 2, 2011

The tacker works great. I use a fairly hard tip and it takes a fair amount of work for it to shape with this tool. It might work better with a softer tip.
I would recommend this item to a friend.

Very Effecient Tip Shaper
By Gene Berwanger from Clovis, California on December 27, 2010

The Porper Tip Shaper/Tacker works very well as a maintenance tool on existing tips. I use it as a final step tip shaper on new tips. I start with the Porper Cut-Rite Tip Shaper/Cutter to get the rough shape, and finish smoothing the surface with the Porper Tip Shaper/Tacker. It works as well as Willard's Tip Shaper or Universal Tool, but I use them all occasionally depending on the situation.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Awesome little tool
By Nicholas from New York on December 15, 2010

This came in handy, a lot better than using the sand paper technique. Also the tacker is a lot better than I expected. No problems with chalk anymore
I would recommend this item to a friend.
built to last

Porper
By David from Lithia , Florida on July 25, 2010

I found this inexpencive tool to be great for scuffing and shaping tips. It's easy to use and the price was right.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
No need to carry that piece of sandpaper anymore
By Del from Lexington, SC on July 4, 2010

Getting back into the sport after many years. I used to carry a couple of small pieces of sandpaper to shape and prep the tip. No more, this little tool is great! don't have to worry about holding the sandpaper "just so" and I don't think it will ever wear out. Great engineering and design.
I would recommend this item to a friend.

A Must Have Tool
By Daniel from California on May 28, 2010

When i replaced the tip on my shorty cue i used this tool to prep it for its first contact with a ball and it looked like it came from the manufacture himself. Love it and would reccomend it to any player.

By snooker4ever from sparta,tn on October 21, 2009

we bought three to start off,1 for myself,my partner and gave other to friend,well made and will last foever,the scuffer is probably the best,but if your using med to hard tip not that great.if your using a elk master or as soft .you will think its the greatest.so of the three i purchased we have put them to the side and replaced, SORRY the tip shaper just not what we expected !
