very cleaver

i know your position and see the issue, but its for about 8-9 pulls at most and yes i know they add up, but the neos at work is just fin and i personally have done well over 500 O3's on it and its just fine

also as its been stated, dont just string it like any other stick, string it like and o3, the neos has a great turn table break, use it!

camelbak cycling bottles are fantastic(im a cyclist), just use on and fill it a few times over

when i use my starting clamp on the outside of a frame 90% of the time its at the top with the bumper guard, if not just place the clamp very close and dont play with it once its holding tension

The OP is right, it makes me money

I think i have said it elsewhere but i use the babolat red handle for the stuff that matters, gss for a lot of other stuff and alpha for very little

the biggest thing going between the neos and my 3000 is how much smoother a design the 3000 is, motion is much more efficiently used which is partially a function of it being electric, and string almost never gets caught on the machine, i wish i could say the same for the neos

It look just like the neos 1000, tighten the bolts together to get the handle to grip and turn the screw

when my 3000 needed a new main board it was like 150 i think

Then you send it in to tennis machines or babolat, they are still extensively used by tour stringers and they string a lot more rackets than you

star 3 and 4 are both excellent machines, its your call

get the damn 1000 already

i have heard some bad things about the eagnas clamp, just spend for a good one, i have 3 and the gss one is great, the alpha one is just ok and the 3rd is a red handle babolat which is immaculate but cannot be purchased any more

a good set of snips/sheers will get down in the track and snip the one connecting string

just buy the neos already, if you dont like it you will be able to sell it for a profit

Its your stick just use it. I cant remember where i read it but i quite like the following: if you have never miswoven you have not strung enough

the thing with the neos is this: Its really that good, it just is, incarnations of it and its predecessors from way back when are still in sue today, it well made and mechanically sound, and a flat out work horse, its the pinnacle of work horse cranks

buy it, use it, love it killer machine

I see the appeal to new stringers but honestly i can weave with my eyes closed and without thinking, if anything is easier than the mains, this would just be cumbersome

A great point has been made now, how does the cost side play in, im talking the entire cost side that means cash and opportunity, i know can make about 30 an huor if i have a solid stack to get through and i also know the investment in the very high end machine i own was both worth it and has...

i dont see why everyone sees the 3tooth clamps as the holy grail, i love the 5 on my prince 300p and everyone stillvstringing on star 3's and 4's is plenty happy with the 5tooth

I thought about the before but was already cutting it. Like i said, quick phone picture i dint feel like busting out the real camera and dealing with the files and id invariably end up making an hour out of it doing product lighting and such

exactly, much like the top hold down on the neos 1000 which lacks wings, I simply did not want to spend $50 buying two of those, anyway... the wings obscure a few holes and make it a real pain to thread those holes, thus away with the wings

I finally had the time to do this modification to the hold down stocks on the prince 3000, The idea is taken from craig brotman who is a tour stringer stringing on prince machines (last I checked), If you have used the machine you know that the wings on the stocks can make seeing the holes...

the clamp method, the edge of that clamp is not a nice large diameter circle, if anything is maybe a slightly rounded corner at best

You will eventually sheer a string that way, just remind me even more of how awesome my 3000 is

after you release tension pinch right behind the clamp and if it slips, tighten them, and clean them regularly

hard to say, i love my 3000 for O3 the 5000 is crazy nice the new tf also looks amazing

To be honest reel holders are just a nuisance in practice, look at a pro room the reels are on the floor and the machines dont have the reel holder on them as its just another place for string to snag
