A very simple solution to losing tips

[Ultra]

If you're into saber combat like I am, losing a tip can happened at one point or another.  Normally, it's no big deal, just reattach it, but if you're ever concerned that you may lose a blade tip at an inopertune time, like a performance, you can easily insure against it by just wrapping the joint with some clear tape.   For a longer lasting solution, a small section of 1.25"  transparent heat-shrink tubing will do the trick.  This looks best with an UltraEdge blade.

Hope that helps.
