Hello all,
I sat down and calculated (through the Mint app) how much I've spent on stringing services in the last year and I had a mini stroke so the time has come for me to get my own stringer. I've been reading about it for a little while and know the basic differences between machines (drop weight, crank, electronic) and clamps. I also have a good friend that used to string for his club and he will teach me how to properly use the machine.
So the main requirements are:
Obviously it needs to be quality, reliable and sturdy but I believe that at this price point all of the machines will pretty much be good. I also understand that typically someone would start with a cheaper machine but I feel the learning process will be quite fast for me to be able to utilize a more expensive machine in a shorter timeframe. I've seen the Gamma Progression II ELS that is bit over my budget but seems to satisfy my criteria and I am confident I'll be able to get for around 1K during Black Friday.
What are your thoughts? Any input? Any machines that fit my criteria better than the Gamma above Progression II ELS?

So the main requirements are:
- It needs to be tabletop and small
- It needs to be max $1K USD
- it needs to be easy to use so I can minimize the stringing time as I get to string more and more.
