Yeah, no kidding. That is flying.That's 14m 17s average per racket? Salute

For the main strings only ?38 minutes.
Don't worry too much about times.As a new stringer (using say a 300-CS w/ Wise 2086 stringing 16x18 with Nat gut mains/multi cross) in your opinion, what is a reasonable time for my first 10 frames/ 25 frames /100 frames?
@Tar Heel Tennis , everything in the post above, do the exact opposite.Don't worry too much about times.
Most people lie about their times by not counting string removal, string measurement, pre-stretching, mounting the racket, etc.
If you want fast times, you should try to find someone to give you stringing lessons, if that is possible.
I know a guy who did it in 20 mins in his first few rackets, because he took lessons.
There are lots of time saving shortcuts you will never figure out on your own.
Otherwise, watch quality Youtube vids, Most are garbage, as with most things.
First 10 frames, you should aim for 2 hours.
You will make mistakes and not know any shortcuts and will need to look everything up repeatedly.
Best bet, find someone on campus to show you all his tricks in one session.

Most people? Like who? Seems like a rather offensive accusation to make without offering any corroborating evidence...Don't worry too much about times.

That’s 12 minutes a frame and awful fast for someone knew who does not no what there doing. Theirs 4 errors they’re (oops 5) going to have to due (6) over.First 10 frames, you should aim for 2 hours.
Funny, try to refute even one word I typed, and you will be the fool.@Tar Heel Tennis , everything in the post above, do the exact opposite.
Here we actually agree. One member of the boards continually lies and once stated he could string a frame in 4 minutes.Don't worry too much about times.
Most people lie about their times by not counting string removal, string measurement, pre-stretching, mounting the racket, etc.
Patently false. The vast majority of videos are first rate. You had issue with one video which you admittedly didn't bother listening to and spent a tremendous amount of time and bandwidth trashing the author -- the claims you made were universally refuted by other members of the boards.Otherwise, watch quality Youtube vids, Most are garbage, as with most things.
I wouldn’t worry about time per se as much as I would worry about learning good habits & getting comfortable with your machine. What you could keep track of is how much time you’re saving as you string more & more...you should see improvement as you get more comfortable.As a new stringer (using say a 300-CS w/ Wise 2086 stringing 16x18 with Nat gut mains/multi cross) in your opinion, what is a reasonable time for my first 10 frames/ 25 frames /100 frames?

lololololol m8. u meant spooked the queen's down under:?)))..........gee, dat won't smell nice considering her ageDamn, mate, I thought they spoke the Queen's Down Under!
That one threw me off for a minute. Your lines are usually so good and those yellow mains looked like the outside strings for a minute. I though you had 4-5 strings on the outside of the frame with crossovers. LMAOhttp://instagr.am/p/B1zgdWkAu09/ this one was a bit more fun
