	Bass Player - All About Endpins
		The hole for this endpin should not be drilled too close to the block’s outside edge, and there should be no cracks or weaknesses in the block—especially since this is usually the second hole in the block.
		Rufus Reid is an advocate of the Rabbath endpin.

	Endpin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Endpins are usually tipped with a point to stick into the floor, which is sometimes capped with fl rubber to preserve the floor's surface and provide friction.
		Generally, endpins are parallel to the long axis of the instrument, but some cellists fit their instruments with a Tortelier-style endpin, which angles more towards the floor, improving mobility at the expense of stability.
		To prevent this slippage, objects known as "endpin stoppers" (sometimes shortened to "pinstops,"), "endpin anchors," or "rock stops" are sometimes placed between the endpin and the floor to add surface area and enhance friction.

	Bass Player - The Endpin & Tailpiece: More Tone Factors
		The endpin and tailpiece certainly do influence feel and sound, and the materials from which they are made also affect the instrument’s structural integrity.
		I think one wheel in the endpin socket is best, because this method affords the most control of movement; also, the wheel is mounted at the endpin block, which tends to be the most solid area at the bottom of the bass.
		If the endpin shaft is normally held in place by a screw, the wheel shaft should have a flat edge where the screw sits to prevent the wheel from swiveling.
