Have the Winmau Craftsman. Managed to bag it recently for just over £70 notes. It really is a beast and I believe it will last forever. It makes removing even the most stubborn points a doddle.
Great video Kurt. I've been respointing my darts for about 18 months, i started doing it, just for the look. Now I've got some decent darts i won't be changing (yet 😅) i repointed them with perfect nine, 34mm alpha points and they work brilliantly with the shape of the barrel and my throw. I use the Caliburn Cylindrical repointing tool off Darts Corner, it's a smaller tool than some of the other brands and it cost me about £50. I do change my points more often than usual though, mainly coz of the odd bounce out i get when i play in the garage and the points hit the concrete floor. Keep up the good work mate 👍🏼🎯
@@MatadorDarts I do try and hold onto the points for as long as possible, but my team mates told me last week to change them as I had so many bounce outs 😅
Plain black points all day long. Stick in the board well, and don't chew your board up. Just recently used my Craftsman to repoint my Designa Firestorm's with 38mm mission glide black points. Perfect for me 👌
I get quite a lot of bounce outs is there anything I could do to stop getting so many? I went down from using a 35mm point to a 26mm and it’s helping but still a lot of darts lost to the floor, any tips would be great 🙂
@@AThompson77654 It depends on your throw most likely. Some people have a throw that causes a lot of bounce outs either because it's not powerful enough or the angle of entry is too high (point points downwards too much)
@@jasonheneghan8364 interesting, lots of people swear by the designa one. I have this winmau one which I use all the time but also a harrows one which I take to tournaments etc if I travel as its smaller.
There's plenty of tutorials out there. This video was more aimed at people who are beginners and probably don't even own a repointing tool amd aren't aware about points being changed.

@sag2974 They're the best repointer on the market for me. Easily worth the extra £20-30 you pay for it

Thank you mate, yeah concrete floors do a lot of damage. I had a mate who didn't realise his points were basically flat, I had to repoint them for him

Can u personalise the SP darts so u can put normal points in them? Like example removing the threads.
You can jam normal points in but in most cases it ruins the threads
Apparently you can also use a pop-riveting tool as well…
That is true but it's best to use the proper tools, they're a lot easier and safer for your barrels

@@MatadorDartsI’d say that my throw is quite a weak throw so that will be it. Cheers
I’ve had a designa Repointer and mission Repointer, don’t recommend either

Had mission one for ages, works perfectly
@@jeremyfraser976it locks on me, won’t move either way
@@MatadorDartsDesigna was good but somebody done my points for me with too much force and it broke easily
I though this was a demo video, not a commentary/monologue. Would have appreciated more videos showing the how, instead of a talking head.

@@MatadorDarts ignore this melt, great video.
