Did you heat the basket neck in hot water for awhile? If it's close,
the neck's expansion is sometimes enough.

Yes, the taper is not that visible to the eye, but I finally
got around to checking, and the old tip will not fit. I will
measure it sometime, to see if I can get a tip to fit. Not
a huge priority, as it is a backup, and I do not break poles
very often.

Thanks,
