Hi Guys. We have limited stringing machines in South Africa. We only get dirt cheap drop weights or the Wilson Baiardo.
A second hand Premium Stringer crank just came on the market. It says it is 9/10. Does anyone have experience with this machine. Accuracy? Clamps? Etc

No direct experience, but I did notice it seems to have a lot of adjustment knobs to fiddle with every time you have to mount a racket. If you string any number of rackets, this would get old fast. Also, the clamp bases look pretty cheap.

It's a fairly popular stringer in Europe. I don't own one, but I have seen them in person often. They work fine. Right now stringing machines are expensive in Europe. If it is a good price and you are going to use it for personal use, I would buy it.

If it's in near new condition, it's not a bad buy in these times. I'd still try and haggle ;)

Hey @RSA Tennis, I actually bought it. Found your post afterwards!

You're right! Not much here in SA. Was going to import a pros-pro. But couldn't decide whether to get a crank or an electric. Or which model. So this made it a bit easier.

Steve is right, lots of knobs close together (jammed fingers!). Bit fiddly to mount the racket.

I was planning to buy a wise or a pros-pros mt200 to add to it. Might be a good idea for you. Enjoy. The search continues for me…..
