    they actually got a fair amout of stick to them, eather that or you can just glue them to the dowel or something, but I would be weary of putting something metallike a staple inside there when you have no control of the staple not rubbing thru things.

    Even if its a one in a million chance of it happening I wouldent want to take that chance.

    I have bad luck as it is anyway lol

    You're trying to scratch the inside of the blade. That's what sandpaper does.
    Even if the staple does hit the blade I doubt it would be noticeable. Even so, wrapping enough paper on it to cover it in a couple layers of paper should protect it.
    Read the Thread Index. because Lord Maul fixed it...

    Has anyone tried the following(?):

    1 - Remove the tip and inner diffuser/wrap
    2 - Plug the tip-end securely (cork, old tip, tape, etc)
    3 - Fill the tube 1/3-full with small-grit playground sand
    4 - Plug the large end securely, as with the tip-end
    5 - Shake, rattle & roll (like a rain stick) until the inside is evenly abraded

    It doesn't take very long, the abrasion is even and it's a helluva good tension release (especially if done while listening to favorite music).
    Oh! It's also cheap.

    That's okay, it was worth it for your rain stick sandblasting trick!
