    hey guys,

    Juts bought a new stringing machine A07 Pro's Pro Shuttle - table top badminton manual stringing machine. I had read good reviews about it and the price was nice and cheap!:)

    So the problem is I have no idea how to string a racket, I have watched endless you tube video's and I am just looking for some basic information, i.e how much string i need to cut to do one racket etc. Just to get me started.

    Cheers for any help! :)

    just buy for the badminton 10m (33ft), it is more than enough.
    if you would like to have 4-knots (2-pieces), just cut 5.3m (main) and 4.7m (cross).

    thanks, any other tips you can give me? will you google A07 Pro's Pro Shuttle - table top badminton manual stringing machine and tell me what you think of the machine. to tighten the tension you turn the nob.

    do i finish the main first, and then the cross??

    why need to google ?
    yours is almost similar to Kwun's : http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...EVIEW-Alpha-Shuttle-Express-Stringing-Machine
    the difference is at the 6 and 12 o'clock post.
    yours is hold-down (press-down), while Kwun's is suspension

    Though I understand a little Japanese, you can still follow the instructions.
