  1. The inside view, design, and construction of factory blades that come to us for repair

    Exactly my thought . I played a brand new 9 layer hinoki blade from Kokutaku last week and if feels like it has been cast from concrete. Out commet the Dremel tool :ROFLMAO:
  2. Setup smelling off, sort of gasoline smell

    Gasoline to clean the old rubber off the blade is efficient quick but a bit drastic. As a commercial person the seller would not give it the time to then let the gasoline vape completely off. This is the part i completely condemn because you now have a blade with a mixture of gasoline and glue...
  3. Would you give your opponent a free point if the referee gave the opponent an unfair red card?

  7. Yinhe Kiso Hinoki 9 ply all-wood blade

    The blade is nicely crafted and half the price of the Yinhe and my experience with Yinhe blades is honestly not without sorrow. My fav-blade presently the Lazer Hinoky which has a layer of carbon . I bought the Kakutaku 9er because I want to try a wood only Hinoki blake without going single layer
  8. Yinhe Kiso Hinoki 9 ply all-wood blade

    Who is ever satisfied ? 😂 I was going for the 9 layer version but it was only available as a CS version. I am putting my BH rubber on today on my KOKUTAKU 9 layer Hinoki blade and health permitting will be able to give it a whack on thursday club night.

  13. Hurricane 3 Neo (Provincial Blue Sponge, 40 degrees) is the longest living (and the best) rubber I have ever tried.

    one sort of applies the varnish with the rag evenly spread and the gently wipes any excess off. On hot days i put my blades in the fridge for a few minutes otherwise the varnish dries too quickly and we can not get rid of the excess if there is any
  14. Hurricane 3 Neo (Provincial Blue Sponge, 40 degrees) is the longest living (and the best) rubber I have ever tried.

    when i first started varnishing I used a spray -can of polyurethane ans layered up until i had a sweet glossy layer which i then lightly sanded to a matt finish. Long time later , I now take a lint-free rag, dip it lightly in a waterbased urethane and rub the stuff onto my blade. There is no...

    Nee, but when you talk to her ,please tell her I said " Hi" 😂
  18. Anything happened since FZD and CM retired from international TT?

    I am sure FZD is a much happier chappy now he plays in Europe. I haven't heard anything about CM but she probably likes it that way.
  19. Anything happened since FZD and CM retired from international TT?

    why do you think something should happen? They retired from international competition and considering the conditions in China you will never even find out whether they jumped or were pushed.
