I bought a staff about 2 weeks ago or so, and have been spinning it. I have dropped it a few times, but nothing unusual, and two of the screws that hold the heads together have sheared off, and the ends are a little loose. I have a few ideas about this.

The first is should I use some kevlar sewing string to hold it together.
The second is would there just be something wrong with it?

The third is, I have thought of buying a set of either cathedral wicks, or possibly the sewn 100mm wicks from your store to replace the heads (they are a bit burnt because I noticed the sheared screws after a spin), and seeing as I don't want to pull apart the wicks (I have a tendancy not to be able to put it back together properly), I was wondering how the staff was made up (can I someone hook those heads on?)

well i'm not sure what to advise you to do, what brand is the staff? you most certainly shouldnt need to replace the wicks after two weeks and if you dont think you've been rough with it you might want to contact whomever you purchased them off and see what they have to say about it wink

I got the staff from HoP. I have had it about two weeks, but the screws are shearing off, and I am unsure of how to repair it, or whether I should send it back or what ?

Well contact the HoP shop directly via email or to Malcom here....and ask them about returns or repairs. THey are entirely decent to deal with and the first source of info for their own products eh... this forum is more *talk amongst yourselves* for spinners than direct communication with HoP itself...

.....Can't juggle balls but I sure as hell can juggle details....

Yeah I sent them an email regarding this. I was just wondering if this had ever happened to anyone else, and of any ideas on repairing it. Now I sit waiting by my modem for an answer wink
