I tried stringing on it, it was not too bad. The feet don't level, they are fixed.

It does look nice. Maybe he can modify it to accept adjustable feet or casters.

I got them from Gamma, but it was during some warranty help.
I believe TW has them available as well. There are other, cheaper
options to be sure, but i didn't feel like searching around.

i believe they were in the 85 dollar (US) range.

edit: i don't see them on the TW site, but a phone call to either TW or Gamma will yield a set of wheels, I'm sure.
these wheels are nice. all locking, nice rubber treads. and a warranty. already having the machine it was a no-brainer.

IF YOU DON'T HAVE A GAMMA, PERHAPS CHECK ALL THIS INFO AT THE DOOR TO THE *******.

found my rcpt. wheels/castors were 92.95 shipped from Gamma.

Cheers!!

@tbuggle : Beautiful. The scenery is perfect. I give you props on the amazing picture! Has anything fallen through the floor gaps? haha. Do you occasionally string at that location or do you move it back indoors?

@tbuggle: are those Gamma clamps that came with your machine? They look like Prince clamps.

Very nice. I still see leaves on the trees. You must be fairly far south if you live in the USA.

My stringing playground corner thingy...
Eagnas combo 6010, a fine stringer If I say so myself, only had one minor problem with it.
I dont spend alot of money on strings, mostly gosen polylon etc. but I go through a lot of it, this stringer its self has probably gotten close to paying for its self. at 22 dollars a string job at my local pro shop, it was a big investment, but it has only begun to pay off! Oh, and a space heater to keep my piggies warm in the winter. Its in a very cool basement.
