I use 4l#12 with a pen point tip for lines. i have loads of tips but not too keen on diamond tips, i guess with 12months in the industry im still learning, im trying magnum set ups at the moment.
ANYONE GOT ANY ADVICE ON HOW TO USE AND MAKE THEM PLEASE?

I like rounds for singles, and 3's, but diamonds for 5's and 7's cuz a 5 diamond will hold a 7, and a 5 round usually won't. Plus most of the diamond tips I have are slightly filed back on the tip, so I don't have to hang as much needle out. The only thing with the diamond tips is if you're not paying attention to the washout angle when you bag them to autoclave, you can confuse them for square mag tips, lol.
As for mags, I really like shovel tips. You have total visability, and they clean out real easy!
