I was stringing my racquet with my Klippermate machine, and all of a sudden on about the 10th main, as I was moving the tension lever into proper position, the string snaped for no apparent reason. The backlash made a 2 or 3 inch cut on my hand. I checked where the string broke and it was not at the grommet or at the tension lever, it was right in the middle! Has this ever happened to anyone? I've strung many racquets before and never had a problem like this. The strings were Babolat Hurricane 18s, which I have been stringing in my mains for a while now. Perhaps in was just a weak point in the string, as it was absolutely frayed where it broke. I did not apply too much tension as the lever was not even level yet (it was at about 2 o clock). Plus I only string at 53lbs. Any input? I'm scared to string again with the second half of the hurricanes.
