Well, that picture is just after a freshly strung job, and i have never played with big ace before. Looking forward to it alot. I strung that at 2am haha

Tension is - 58/60

^^^^^ i posted a pic, a few back... of my ProStaff 6.1 Classic... i botched the string job (i wanted a full one piece of Lux Monotec Supersense... forgot to measure the short side, and started stringing with the string measuring even!!! so i had to 2 piece it)... i strung the M's w/ Supersense @ 56lbs and X's with Gamma Revelation @ 58lbs.... i hate it!!!!!!! Going back to Big Ace, stringing tonight!

fraternity letters in Greek,
a half red/half blue star,
the symbol for Pi, etcetera.

I guess there's only so much artwork you can do on a stringbed, it's not like a pumpkin or a piece of sketch paper....so I've also seen some poorly done ones, like the keep on truckin' guy, a court jester...stuff like that.

I hope I didn't just spawn a cool stencil thread.
Hasve you cats ever seen the BorisBecker serving man logo?

I have never seen "etc." spelled out. That is truly something odd to me.

slice bh compliment · 12-14-2007, 12:56 PM

a] I am surprised someone actually read down to the end of a list that long
b] normally I'd go with the abbreviated version but if I had, it could be construed (sitting right next to Pi) as another symbol for a custom stencil, which I honestly have not seen.
c] I'm actually amazed you felt it was so odd that you felt compelled to devote a post to it. That's truly something odd to me.

Post Script: take care, man.

Post post script: have a happy Christmas. Jersey is nice this time of year.

I'm not alone. Thank you guys.

Oh, and I will not bore you with photos of my gut/hurricane (natural on natural) stringjobs.

Gotta love those French...

Cheers,
