Help spot the differences

[Mazilla2219]

I am fairly new to stringing and would like to buy a crank tension machine with the possibility of upgrading to an electronic constant tensioner (Wise 2086 or another attachment). Right now I am looking between the Eagnas flex 840 or the combo 810. I didn't see any reviews for the two machines. I was wondering if anyone knew the differences between the 2 machines other than the base and price. TIA.

Combo 810:

• Thicker table
• spring assisted clamp base
  

Flex 840:

• Thinner table
• cone lock clamp base
  

They use the same type clamps, tensioning system, and brake system. For only a $60 difference, the Combo 810 is a better buy. You will get the same stringing results, but the spring assisted base is a little easier, and the thicker table looks more durable. (Although you probably shouldn't have any trouble with the thinner table.)

Eagnas has had a # of customer service issues, and if you get a bad machine you could be in for a problem. There is an Alpha on the big auction site, at what seems a reasonable buy it now price. Used machines do come up every so often, and as you realise, a wise can be a good update. Good luck on whatever you decide.
