Tips for broken tips?
#2
Put the tip in the oven. Experiment with the temperature until you find it sufficient to break down the epoxy bond. Then the broken piece of rod can be pulled out and you can polish out the inner surface to be able to produce a strong bond again. But, if it doesn't fit, then consider not weakening the rod tip by thinning it and instead searching for a tip that will fit.

I also need to find a replacement tips for some ultralights, but I just put them aside and have been fishing with other rods and just haven't sought a source for them yet.
