to make a long story short, i have winter break this week, but my week long trip to aruba was cancelled at the last second due to passport issues. i am now the only person left in my town so i told myself that i would learn to string a stick if i did nothing else all week. i found my old vapor, the first head i ever used and used some stringing supplies that i have compiled from previous attempts, and it didnt turn out as bad as i thought it would.

i do realize that i need to break it in alot more, and the pocket is already much better from using the knife and ball trick for a while. im not sure if i did my sidewalls right, so if anyone could tell me how they look that would be most great. sorry for the bad pictures, i had to use my cell. thanks guys.

Sorry, the pictures are to small for me to tell. It looks solid besides that.
Check Oranges Gaint Mesh tutoriul, to make sure you did it right.

they look fine. if you want a little bigger pockt, you could try double up some.

did you pinch that vapor?

last year before i got my clutch i wanted it kinda pinched so i just did the thing where you step on both side walls, but i never put it in the oven or anything like that.

my brother bent his from the top to the throat and it worked pretty well. vapors are so flexy
