Got an unstrung Warrior XP2-O, not the latest and greatest, but a nice head for cheap. Strung it with a leather top string, yellow sidewall and a purple shooter to round out the natural head color. Thanks for looking!

Is this bad?

First time stringing, used ECD videos and just got done with the top string. I finally got the tension high on all the sections, but I’m worried that middle left and middle right diamonds look so different. On the left, the top of the diamond rests on top of the scoop, and on the right it’s folded underneath. Would this cause it to throw weird?

Had an extra RC1 lying around that I had widened as a backup for my box gamer. Got my hands on hero 7d and decided to string it up to the inside. I love it. Gonna give it a spin at field pickup tomorrow evening

Grizzly 2x mesh help

2 Upvotes

Was looking for some advice regarding 2x mesh. I’m in the process of stringing up an impact head with grizzly 2x mesh for my daughter (she wants a black head with black mesh, prefer semi hard and this was the only one I can find and wouldn’t have to dye). Was looking at 5 tutorial u/Sidewalljedi where he comments on not recommending this mesh unless you’re an experienced stringer (which i obviously am not) and was curious as to why that is. What would need to be done differently from other mesh? I did read about durability issues and about it breaking in faster than most meshes out there, I’m not sure if that’s what he is referring to. Should I scrap the 2x and get something different? Any advice/recommendations would be appreciated! TIA

Head rec for hickory stick and traditional stringing?

1 Upvotes

I bought some 2x2 lengths of hickory from a wood supplier that I plan to cut down and shape into a shaft. The idea is to get a head and go with traditional stringing with the leathers. I have no experience with wood shafts or traditional stringing. Are there any specific heads to be on the lookout for with this endeavor?

Mamba mesh help

1 Upvotes

Im stringing a mavrok tank 2.0 with mamba mesh and i cant get a solid high pocket. It keeps coming out flat amd too tight, I've tried starting with the top and sidewall string but run into the same issue. I've only strung hard and soft 7-9 diamond mesh plus traditional pita pocket before so spider wire is new to me. Any tips or side wall patterns?

Constructive Criticism Welcome Traditional stringing trouble

1 Upvotes

Ive been attempting a traditional pocket on an ReLax Rc1 with ECDs traditional kit , used extra paracord to do the dog track method of string down the middle. The top end towards the scoop is bagging out really bad when I throw despite pulling the strings and leathers tight wondering if anyone had tips or solutions to tighten the top end without pulling the center really far out

Edit : sorry for lack of pictures I had the thought to ask here while I was traveling and did not have the stick with me
All the comments so far have been very helpful!

Playing around with some more inside stringing. This one will probably get sold, but I’m tempted to keep

Today we dyed a couple more…

And I tried my first fade…it came out pretty well but they say only do one dip of the second color all the way to the start of the fade, because if you go a second time you’ll notice it….well that’s true! Learned the hard way but the blue fade still came out pretty sweet.

Edit: As soon as I posted this and looked through the photos I realized the top string on the blue fade was backwards…already fixed.

First attempt at dyeing

Used RIT DyeMore, turquoise teal then sapphire blue. Ended up with a few air bubble imperfections but overall I’m happy with it. With poor lighting and being colorblind, I was horrified after first check of the second color, I thought it was purple. Nothing against purple, but my 6 yr old was very specific about every color and string that went into his fallball head. Was in the turquoise for about 8 minutes and the sapphire for only 4, but I poured full bottles for each and used twice as much water on the turqoise dip, so the sapphire was way more diluted. Anyways, almost no hand staining, worked great and was painless, don’t be afraid to try it!

Grace from @heartstringswlax here!

Seeing a lot of men attempting women’s pockets on here and asking for help. Way to go guys! Glad you’ve delved into women’s stringing!

I’m here to answer any questions or give feedback on any pocket pics you want to send. My contribution to growing the game is educating people on women’s stringing (an area that is lacking, even among women’s players themselves).

Shoot your questions :)

An update from my last post, I've just come back from taking shots with this and it's pretty good! Channel is super clean, pocket may need to be a little deeper. So far it's about 2 balls deep, and I'm trying to get it deep enough for 2 and a half.
