tip problem
i have built something in the neigborhood of about 20 rods, and this has only happened to one of them. i built an all star 1208 spinner two falls ago. i did everything the same with this rod, as i did with those before and after. now, for the 3rd time, the tip has come loose and i have to re do it. the epoxy cracked at the base of the tip tube, and now spins on the rod. when i do tips, i use hot melt rod tip glue, wrap up to and over the tube with thread, then finish with U-40. i can't understand what is wrong with this ONE rod? any thoughts?
