hi. just wanted to let you all kno of an easy way to replace a broken tip on
the aluminum newt stylus.
i was searching for a long time for somthing that would suffice as a tip,
when i found a nylon screw. they come in a few sizes but i found that the
4-40 size (i beleive its that size) fit best. i just screwed it into the
threaded hole on the handle, cut off the head of the screw than with an
xacto knife widdled away the shaft to a tip. i than sanded and burnished it
to a perfect tip, worthy of a pda panache. anyhow, just a good method i
found.
