2nd time stringing

[fatlaxkid]

the first time i tried it was horrible. so i just put the factory strung (fresh mesh) back in, and i hated it so i went to the local store and bought some mesh.

Tighten the sidewalls, double up the topstring, and the rolled shooters are sloppy. It looks like 2 of them (top 2) are backward, unless it was intentional. Is that red or pink mesh?

[fatlaxkid]

the top 2 were on purpose. and its red. and im going to tighten up the sidewalls and double up the top string later. stupid history homework.

[EndlesFimbulvet]

Yeah, I hear you.
By the way, is the Truth insanely flexible? Ive heard some nasty rumors from my friends.

[fatlaxkid]

yeah but it always goes back to normal.

[PCHSlax5]

tighten up the sidewalls, redo the shooters. Woven tends to be easier (in my opinion) if u just started stringing. And definately duble up on the top, it will last longer.

TIGHTEN THOSE SIDEWALLS and make them the same tightness. Double up on diamonds if you need. And re-do the topstring.

the TRUTH hurts lol just had to say that, hows the head perform?

[lax38x]

it looks like u went 2 diamonds in on the third sidewall from the bottom...but thats just me

[nofear45465]

no offense, but that is a sorta bad job. im not trying to be mean but you should really unstring the whole thing and start over using one of the tutorials around here. loose sidewalls like that are reallly quite treacherous. sorry about sounding so mean, im really just tryin to help you out.

thats why i felt like i was mean saying it was bad, but i couldnt relaly see any other way to say it. Im sure he will get it fast as long as he follows the great tutorials we have on here.

ok fixed the shooters and sidewalls.

[gigo567]

The sidewalls look kinda messy.

[fatlaxkid]

well i did my best. plus i dont care this is just till my 5D gets here from jimalax.

[PhishMeister]

Repetitive, but tighten sidewalls, redo sidewalls (double up where desired/necessary), fix the shooters or at least the U. Bring it all the way to the end of the mesh. Also it is uneven, the U shooter. It is not centered properly.

[laxn]

Stick to one way on the sidewall u brought the string down through the diamond on some and up on others, its basically the same either way but just stick to one.

[gigo567]

Oh okay, well post your stick when your 5D gets here.

now thats better. i like it a lot. ull have to adjust it as it gets broken in though.

[motolax415]

i agree it still looks a little messy but better than before.

[laxkid891]

much better than the first keep workin at it...use oranges giant mesh tutorial

[drifter8027]

looks a lot better than before....i would say switch to the weave instead of rolling the shooters, but thats just a preference....

[B1ackout]

leave the rolled thats the best looking part of the mesh jsut fix the u like said before its off center and go back and redo the sidewalls so that they are all identical thats the best way to make it a good performing head besides that its a great improvemnet and an awsome job for a new stringer keep up the good work

ps. 5d is harder to get perfect to if i were u id follow the 5d tut every single step of the way and stretch it real good be4 u sting it

[CnSLax3]

The sidewalls r a bit losse but its all preferance also the shooters look a little messy, but over all it lokks good especially for a stcik strung while doing history hw.

[CSlax06]

redo the topstring also, it is uneven, other then that break that sucker in

[entropy22]

looks better, but fix the shooters

[MoOnCoW]

it looks like on the first sidewall string you skipped two or three and didnt do that with the rest, theres a hole there.
