After stringing my first two racquets using my new Klippermate, I checked the tension using RacquetTune. Within the hour - no play. To my surprise, the readout showed a tension between 2-4 lbs. higher than where I'd set the dropweight. (Yes, I had the Klip properly set up and had all the right specs put into RacquetTune for head size, string pattern and so on.) Can anyone shed some light on why this might be? I was meticulous about setting the dropweight correctly and letting it stabilize at exactly horizontal before clamping. I might have expected a lower readout if my knots had slipped (they don't appear to have) or even from an hour passing, but I don't get higher. Is RacquetTune not that accurate?
Also: much appreciation to the TW stringing community, particularly Irvin and YULitle, for all the resources you guys put out. There's no way I would have started stringing my own racquets if I hadn't been able to learn so much first, but now I see that it can indeed be done. Thanks.
