    If for badminton only, go for the Eagnas Easy-3. It's very good bang-for-the-buck, IMHO. :D

    I have looked at that one. Does it come with everything needed, or will I need to buy something extra?

    BTW, I would aprecciate if someone knew a site that sells Easy-3, and ships internationally.

    Easy 3 looks good and it should be long lasting.

    Shipping string machine internationally? oh man, that's going to hurt your wallet. String machines usually weights more than 40lbs, and that could cost you hundreds of dollars on S&H!! :eek:

    Ideally, you should buy:

    1) a Fishermen's Scale to calibrate your string tension.
    2) a few extra fly clamps
    3) a starter clamp

    You should be all set. :D

    Well, a stringing machine is not a lightweight, small item. :p
