That's what I mean it won't stay like pic when I am not using it.
My drop weight won't stay up like the pic.
my problem is step 2 in the book after i clamp the the left center main and the second left main when i drop weight the weigth just falls.

I am stuck at step 5.
I also over measured the mains so my cross string is only 14.5 feet long will it be enough to do this 90 sq in racquet. I have a few scraps of string left from the mains is there away to connect it or something. If not I can use another set of synth gut but don't want to unless it's necessary.
Hey 777 I just got my Klipper today, I took my lady's nFury and let it rip with that Nylon that came with, there was almost no pressure on breaking the string or the stick and I stumbled through in about 2.5 hrs. The mains were a breeze for me but the crosses kind of sucked. Anyway going to try this ultimate hybrid on one of my Dunlop's next. Did anyone actually like this string?

well after some hiccups the mains are done. not sure if i tied off at the right places since I couldn't find a pattern, here it is
Well I tied off the next to last cross and used another string to finish it off. i had a total of 6 knots on racquet. Racquet had small cracks at 9 o'clock and also a harline one at 12 o'clock the 9 o'clock one can be observed in above picture. It did develop a crack at 3 o'clock but more like the paint pealling around the grommet more than anything. I guess too much stress. I'll hit with it and see how it goes. This was the first racquet I ever owned so i'll probably leave it in the closet. I think I got the hang of things this time it won't take like 12 hrs hopefully. I'll next do my LM Radical a more modern racquet and stronger racquet lets hope I don't crack that one!
How do you have six knots?
so for 2 piece stringing there are 4 knots? also for a LM radical MP is it 1 piece cause I only see 2 knots.
No, Head LM Radicals are always 2 piece, or ATW pattern, but don't worry about ATW for now.
Well I managed to break the polyester string that came with the Klippermate, apparently its a little bit trickier and requires more patience than syn gut. Reviewed my first job on the nFury and realized that while I did alternate over unders on the bottom 3 and top 3 crosses, I didn't go back and make sure it lined up everywhere else so it's not strung right. Anyone know if that will lead to problems, as its only at the very top and bottom of the frame?
I can't believe a War Eagle blew those crosses, haha We war Eagles don't make mistakes like that. kidding
Congrats on getting that first one out of the way. You are braver than me. I broke down and got a neos 1000, cause I was afraid I couldn't/wouldn't do it on one of those basic models. Even at $1100, its been a real good investment. 500 sticks later and about $7000 in savings without counting milage for drop and pick up.
For less than 200, just think how well that will serve your wallet!
War Eagle back at you
Hey aussie I was thinking of stringing my AG a little tighter than the recomended 55-65#. The last time I had it strung at 65# with a Gamma Electric machine. I was thinking like 68-69# Will it be ok for the frame. I don't want to break it. I had heard going up 10% more wouldn't harm a frame.
