Questions & Answers
While the clamps rest an inch or so below the string bed of a mounted frame, they will slide up out of their bases to reach whatever height you require if your clamps are fixed (which appears to be the only explanation for why your clamps do not reach your strings).
You are covered for five years with this product. There is an annual warranty on the clamps, but not on the rest.
This set of clamps includes metal clamps
Weighing between 20 and 30 pounds, it is about the size of a suitcase. This machine is portable, and we even string on the kitchen counter while it's set up.

After receiving the broken first one, I sent for a new one. There is no fault on the part of Amazon UPS has handled this mistakenly. There is no sign of dropping and is sitting on its back facing down with this side facing up. We contacted Amazon that night after finding all the packaging inside was shattered. It was agreed that the next day's pickup would take place. I contacted UPS and they removed it, and when I contacted them back, I received a full refund of my purchase price. The second one I ordered arrived in good working order. The assembly process was simple and fast. This appears to be a well made product that works great. It worked well for me to use the Gamma Progression 200. I wished that I could string using the drop weight instead of the two point mounting system, but stringing with the drop weight takes more time. After stringing only two rackets using the X-string, I'd say the string is an excellent one As a result of the time cut, I am able to produce more consistently good results. The first tip is to crank slowly, not too fast. The second tip is to rotate slowly. The time remaining before the lockout happens is three seconds. Using a crank stringer, there is no damage done by going faster, but it takes some time to stretch the string to get consistent tension (this is It is possible to Google constant pull versus lockout and you will find several videos that discuss It's easier and faster to use the fixed clamps than floating clamps because they work very well and are much more versatile. Your tension must be calibrated with a tension calibrator, as I agree. A few pounds were off for me. Unsure about the comment about 24lbs, it sounds like a lot to me. On the whole, it looks like a quality piece of equipment that will serve its purpose for a long time. Generally speaking, this is a good upgrade from the entry stringer (drop weight) if you're looking for a step up. There are no problems with it and it works fine. Although you might one day want a constant pull model with an electronic mechanism, you do not need to throw away For less money than buying one of the more expensive electronic tension heads, the Wise 2086 electronic tension head can be installed on the stringer to replace an existing crank tension head. Lastly, I would like to add a As a result of the stringer's weight, it does not appear to be made of aluminum and steel and is a bit heavy. Technically, it can be moved around, but it isn't something you will want to keep moving around all the time. It would be better to keep it in one place or to buy the matching stand to go with Thank you. I hope this is helpful.
Late in 2008 and early in 2009, we used the SP Swing to support our weekly grocery and I had about 48 weeks of groceries. From 10 to A stringing job is performed 20 times These machines are both made up of a tabletop and a top The build quality is top notch, and the stability is superb. In the case of bigger head size frames (oversized) and open stringing patterns, using floating clamps proved to be a real challenge since they are designed for mid to mid-size frames. Size of frames is the key (as far as I am concerned). On the Gamma X-ray machine, there are fixed clamps The ST is great for managing different head sizes, and its 6-button controls are simple to use With the pt mount system, the racquet is tightly held, particularly when doing the cross. Although both are table-top devices, they possess a slightly different set of features Unlike other machines, the Swing may be used on any surface, including a table or counter Normally, you can string a racquet comfortably in the top but the Gamma X-90 is different The ST needs to have a specific table height (relative to the stringer's height), as the latter is enormous. The table height needs to be between 20" and 22" for me because I'm 5'9". For comfort, you should have a waist measurement of 25". When you are more than 6 feet tall then a regular table or counter is your best option There shouldn't be any problems at the top. Even better, for $119 you can buy the Gamma's floor stand. I found the accuracy of the stringing jobs for both to be okay, but you need significant experience with drop-down menus in order to achieve better accuracy For the weight machine to be accurate, it should be calibrated.
I bought this stringer and strung my first couple of racquets with it. I found it to work perfectly. Built well, includes samples for the first few string jobs as well as tools for getting the job done. I am very satisfied with the.
It never occurred to us to string any racquets. It does exactly what it says it will. Our daughter is playing a tournament at our house, so we need something portable to string her racquet on the spot. We have never strung a racquet before, but needed something portable to take with us. After taking an hour for the first racquet, subsequent racquets only take 30 minutes to prepare. The software pays for itself within a few months.
Is well-suited to the job. It is good to have everything you need at your disposal. This warning applies I should have purchased a calibration unit at the time of purchase, as mine was 24 lbs off!.
My opinion on the prices of other vendors is similar to that of the other reviewer. Having said that, this stringer has been in the family for five years and has been well-maintained after that My racquets are strung and I have 60 to test, and I can tell you that it is durable, accurate, and user-friendly. You will learn how once you are skilled at it. One very minor drawback will be that it won't be the fastest stringing machine out there, as it takes me 45 minutes on average to string. Although the video is not very detailed, if you are simply planning on stringing a few tunes for yourselves and your friends, it shouldn't hurt.
You should be aware that many other merchants offer this product for about half the cost.
