View Full Version : Profile with Double Triple Threat

It is very late for the ol' Formerlaxdemon. I had to work this morning so today was no real day off for me. I tried sleeping, but the sandman is being tardy so I opted to string instead. I remember some months back a member asked if anyone had strung a Double Triple Threat. So here is my Double Triple Threat in... you guessed it... a Profile. There are a great many Profiles appearing in the Forum this past week so here is mine.
I apologize for taking the pictures in my bathroom, but I thought it was the safest place to be from my cat. Sure enough, my cat followed me in and as you can see in the second picture is having a grand time attacking the extra string hanging from the pocket. Sorry for the low-quality of the pictures, but it is past one in the morning and I am finally sleepy. The cat did not help either. Enjoy the pocket!
I promise you all that the pocket is symmetrical, I simply couldn't hold the camera steady with so many things factoring into the shot.

Great Job! I've been wanting to try one of these for a while, and I think I'm going to take that Torpedo Pocket I did out, and put one of these in.

Yumm cats taste good with BBQ sauce :love: ... Did i just say(type) that out loud. Darn. But anyways, that looks really good. I also notice your butter knife has a serrated edge, and your head has a gait ball stop. Wow im cool. Nice job with the stringing, keep em coming :)

Here's where you get the Ripley's Believe it or Not test. It took me under an hour and a half to string the head. That is not including time I took to look at a picture of the pocket in my Lacrosse Unlimited catalogue.

Yes I did, and while I think it is a great idea, I doubt that the powers-that-be would approve of it. Lacrosse is not the name of the game here I am sad to say. I will see what I can do. If nothing this year, perhaps in the future.

As for a tutorial. I will need to get another head to string and then I will do step-by-step instructions with accompanying pictures. It is not a difficuly pocket, but it takes patience. I have strung so many Rock-it Pockets lately that I just got sick of them and wanted to do something along the lines of original traditional stringing. So when I get another head to string, I will pop one in. I appreciate the feedback though.
This is one of the pockets I teach my stringers to make as well.
NICE, but why the nylon leather substitutes?

I like it. I may have to try one. PS...i know all about cats and string. They do indeed have a grand ol' time playing with your crosslace.
My cat is more excited when my jimalax order comes than i am. :crazy:

They actually are a part of the pocket style and not something I chose to include. It works very well though. The Grunk pocket is a lot like this and you really don't need a four leather pocket to have a good traditional variant.

My cat jumps right into the box and won't get out. He is a LAX cat for sure. I definitely suggest stringing one. It is, for lack of a better word, responsive. It just feels right, if you know what I mean.
