Post your Current Projects!

[PioneerLacrosse]

I decided to make a thread where everyone can post their current projects that they are working on, and get some feedback to help them on.


I'll start.
I found a strung 0z randomly in my basement the other day, barely used and the only issue wrong with it was the small strining. Started on it today, with some pinch

I plan on stringing my eclipse with some soft mesh which I dyed. I will probably finish that either tonight or tomorrow night.

My goalie-riffic Crosses; 2 layers of 1/8" plastic on first two supafly sections, 2 layers on front of thumb, topped off with countless layers of tape. Gorgeous. Also, the cut palms, Gotta love 'em.

now onto the stringing...

[NY Lax 4]

I'm working on my Truth and Proflex Cu31. Today I drilled a hole for it perfectly and cut it down so the whole stick is exactly 40". It's coming along well, I'm going to Lacrosse Unlimited later to get a stringing kit and a butt end.

Super X's turned into Goalie Super X's and the Edge are coming out nice, keep it up.

[PioneerLacrosse]

thanks, hope that stringing goes well, keep us updated

[snell31]

im string an edge aero later with jima hard mesh. im going to either do red or navy blue sidewalls not decided though...and a might try double sidewalls (feeling adventorous) ill post pics later if anyones interested.

[PioneerLacrosse]

yeah post some pics im curious to see how it goes

[d-pole01]

well i have a current project but need a little help. My palms on my superstars have holes in them and im wondering how i can fix this. I am thinking about tape or my mom said to sow it. Any help would be nice and ill get pics in when im done with this prob.

[snell31]

i strung it up but i only have carolina blue shooters so its not going to look to good. plus the edge aero only has a few sidewall holes so it was awkward. :thumbsdow ill post pics later...

[goalieskcickay]

My brother's edge is being pinched as we speak. But it is going ot be a Matrix-style pinch, with the lower sidewalls more pinched. I'll post pics when I'm done.

you don't want to sew it, cause itll just make ur glove too tight and not able to use it
also, sewing it just makes makes it rip harder the next time

taping would be a simple solution but would require alot of maintenence. youll need to replace the tape frequently, but it should keep the hole covered till as long as you find another solution

i have also heard of patching, taking a similar-like matieral and actually sewing it on the glove to cover it up, however, it could limit your mobility and comfort

the ultimate solution is replacing ur gloves, but i suggest taping for now and see how it goes

[AttackMan17]

Im working on some tutorial-ige.
Theyre secrets now though...
Also, im restringing my PP with a beastly double sidewall pocket.

[Hunter]

I'm pinching my really old brine Oz using the back of the car tied up method. Its about 100 degrees here so it should be done in about a week.

i made a mistake, the head i pinched was actualyl a Oz as well, they look so similar ><

anyways hunter, i pinched mine with the boiling method, and it only took like 10 minutes. the head didn't really become weaker so if you want to save time just use the boil method

[c0letraiN]

i am thinking about pinching my brine edge. also, i don't know if you would consider this a "project" but i am trying to decide which head to buy, E3, torque, or wait for 07 gear.

[snell31]

heres pics of my edge...its not too good.

i just finishing an x2 for a friend now, just normal jima hard mesh.
c0letraiN- i pinched an EDGE the other day and it came out sweet, good luck with that. i'd go with the E3 their pretty sweet.

[NY Lax 4]

Well my parents procrastinated so we had no time to go to Lax Unltd but its better because now my Dad is taking me tomorrow therefore I will have more time, which means more time to try on all the gloves.

[PioneerLacrosse]

nice work guys

coletrain - id said go for the torque ;) the 07 gear is gonna take a while and is gonna be expensive and necessarily not so good

[GBSLax25]

My only project now is cutting my monster down so i can use it for field and making a wood shaft out of oak.

[laxb0rder]

don't use oak use hickory i used both trust me oak was much worse

[NY Lax 4]

Once I get new gloves I'm going to take my Gladiators and tape them on the thumb like Endles.

[EndlesFimbulvet]

I made 32" and 35" oak shafts (a/m and goalie), only because Home Depot doesent have any Hickory where I live...Curses upon Home Depot. Theyre holding up well, but only the 35" sees game time, and I never leave the crease much anyway. I love the wooden feel. love.

[vcu_lax20]

i had a razer that i had bought on ebay. great condition, it was just pinched too much for my taste and the mesh pocket was too shallow, felt like a girls stick. so i boiled the head and un-pinched it. i kept the mesh because it was in new condition. but wound up having some spare stringing supplies so i re-strung the head into one of these. http://www.stylinstrings.com/rbasicpocket.htm its not exactly like it, my mesh peice was a little short so i had to improvise the bottom with coils and twists. but it throws great and looks pretty sharp. just started stringing recently, teaching myself by looking at photos of custom pockets.

[PioneerLacrosse]

i have actually never tried wood shafts, nor seen anyone personally in action. wonder how they are and their adv and disadv

I you do that than make sure you do the top correctly.

[NY Lax 4]

The truth is complete... pics in a few.

[shoebag2000]

Ooo, post pics of the woodie when you are finished. I love wood shafts, except I wasn't cool enough to make my own. :(

d-pole01 about your superstars i think you can just get your gloves re-palmed its pretty expensive but not even close to as expensive as getting new gloves, only thing is it wouldn't be the nice mesh stuff that come in superstars it would probably be leather but that is still good.

that is also a good idea, but takes time and is quite a bit of money
