Another fix is to apply paper to the tip that has been wet with epoxy. Regular notebook paper works. cut it to the width of the insert depth of the tip top. cover the peper with epoxy and roll a few wraps maybe 3 cut off the extra and let dry. Then fit the tip top to see if it fits snug if nut add another layer and try again. once fittied you coat the tip with epoxy one more time and secure the new tip top.
This works great I do it on my rod that customers use. I buy tips that never fit. Customers love to try and reel the sinker through the tip guide so I just replace them with what ever is around at the local shop.
