Having started stringing recently on the same machine this video helped me a lot. Still on a steep learning curve but slowly getting there. Its the little things you only learn by doing. Great vid, many thanks
I don't think it will. When I readjust it, I always make sure the string is still grasped firmly by the tensioner and after the adjustment the tension bar is parallel to the ground. If the tension loss happens in the previous main string, I don't think tension bar can be parallel to the ground after the adjustment. This way may not be perfect but it works for me. I do this for both tennis and badminton stringing and I don't really feel tension problem with my rackets.
Right but with no clamp on the string you’re pulling and the previous main, what’s keeping the tension on that string and preventing the tension from being split between all three strings?
I would say it's all depends on the feeling of your hands lol. After all, the purpose of that adjustment is to get rid of the slack after that clamp is removed, so it can't be done when the clamp is still in the place. But if you don't feel comfortable by doing that adjustment, I think it's also OK to skip that adjustment. This is an issue of the drop weight machine that to tighten the string you have to lift the bar and drop it. So, it needs some experience and feeling that when you lift the bar, hold the tensioner firmly with the other hand and try to keep the tension as much as you can. @@jonwj8622
Hey, I see you have both stringway and pro stringer claws. Do you prefer the claws mostly? I've noticed in videos that people struggle to get them in at the beginning/end of the crosses which kind of puts me off but it keeps cool how they deal with variable spacing. Thanks!
If I have to only choose one, I would go with claws. The stringway is only good for beginning/end of crosses, but the claws can be used through out the whole frame job. It's a bit harder to clamp it on beginning/end of crosses, but it just needs some time and you will get used to it.
@@jasonzjthanks for the reply. I actually ordered the stringway two triples and one double combo (not yet delivered) but I might pick up one of these to see what they are like at some point. My worry with the claws is that people seem to struggle to get them into place on the crosses in the videos I've watched
Yes, using this method different rackets will require different counting. The racket length is basically the same for any type of rackets but the string lengths are quite different. For a specific racket, you need to know the string length first and then convert the length to how many times of the racket length so you can have a correct measuring.
@@jasonzj but that means your 2nd cross is tensioning both the 1st and 2nd cross. so the tension would be inaccurate for both those crosses (much lower)

Great video!
Excellent technique!
At 6:21 when you take the clamp off and then readjust the drop weight, doesn’t that redistribute the tension across that string and the two mains?
I don't think it will. When I readjust it, I always make sure the string is still grasped firmly by the tensioner and after the adjustment the tension bar is parallel to the ground.

Great video! Could you do a detailed video on the knots you are doing? Thanks so much!
I'll try to make another video when I string my racket next time. But I guess it won't be soon because the tennis season is almost end this year.
Great

哇塞，棒👍🏻
Your method of measuring the crosses, does that only apply for a 16x19? Never seen anyone measure by doing what you did but it seems much easier

Thanks for the video! I think you didn't clamp the first crossed. Is not be necessary to clamp the first crossed string?
I won't be able to clamp the first crossed using flying clamps. That's the drawback of using flying clamps. But I don't think that's a big problem.

Oh man I don't miss using flying clamps
