I did some extensive reading, mainly on another board about the JayCee method of stringing. The steps I found were from posts by JayCee himself.
Why I was interested in his method is that he claims that your average tension immediately after stringing should be no more than 2 lbs lower than your reference tension. For example, if you set your stringer to 58 lbs, if you measure the tension immediately after taking it off the stringer, it should be no lower than about 56 lbs. I won't go into the reasoning that he says you should and can string your racket to such accuracy, but his thought process is sound in my opinion.
After stringing on my Klippermate I ALWAYS have about 7 lbs of immediate tension loss when compared to the reference pull tension. The is according to RaquetTune which I think most users of this app will agree is pretty accurate.
One variable I am curious about is that he says his Swingway Clamps on top of his methods are the reason he can string so accurately.
So I have two questions:
1) Has anyone successfully used the JayCee method on their Klippermate?
2) Will the Klippermate clamps prevent me from ever being able to achieve his type of accuracy?
I'll post of a summary of his method in the next post.
