I like what you did with the aluminium plate. I may need to do the same thing once I get my WISE since it doesn't fit many Gamma machines, can that be found in pretty much any hardware store ?

i didn't find it in the local hardware store. i ordered it from Amazon:

the material is 6061-T6 Aluminum alloy which is one of the most popular and stronger Aluminum alloys.

I managed to do Victor's 80 grommets pattern with flying clamps last week! Was definitely one of the most challenging string jobs I've had to do! heh

Okay I found out that my 5003 needs a MBFS-11, which is different from yours.

Also, I really like your base clamp as my 5003 base clamp can get pretty tight at some section of the racket, but I got two floating clamps so I was able to get by all the trouble spots.

the base clamp is nice. but i have to admit that the Yonex one is lighter action. the Gamma one is strong but so is the spring back and i hit my fingers a few times and it hurts like hell.

Anyways, MBFS just got ordered from ATS sports, and it should be on its way. I will probably do a setup of the Gamma head clamp at the 12, and load spreader at the 6.

that's kinda my plan also, even though i didn't find it that necessary to use a 6 oclock load spreader.

Congrats on the new machine once again. The 5003 was my first machine and I love it. Next step is to save up for a 2086 or just get permission from the banker (aka the wife)

yeah. that could be scary process.

but having earned/saved more money from stringing than the cost of the machine and also being my birthday helped!

Welcome to the Gamma 6004 + Wise club. I really miss this Gamma new 5 fingers diamond coated universal clamp. Oh also that 1/4" aluminum custom made plate, except I would made it level up with the racket.

you mean you prefer it to be level with the stringbed and give up 360 rotation?

BTW, please post a picture with the clamp on the main and cross string to show the space of the teeth. and other one with the clamp on the last tie off main string to see how close is to the frame and side support. Thanks.

will do that tonight!

but from memroy, it was tight. sometime the end teeth will move the string by 1mm or 2.

and the side support isn't perfect, it still protrude into the frame area by less than 1/2 cm.

anyway you will see it when i have the pics.

Yes, but not exactly give up 360 rotation. Since badminton shaft is flex, it can be lift up 1/2" to go over the tension head.

Geeze, that thing is a beast!

This is my jelous font, btw

[phili]
