    If you ever strung a racket, you should notice, that VE50 is much better than ST7000.

    Look at the clamp base: VE50 has the better clamp base. Easier and more smooth to use. The ST7000 has really poor mechanism bases, which are common for 500USD machines. If you string more than 3 rackets per week, your thumb will be happy.

    The ST7000 don't come with the gorgeous Toyo Zouki clamps. Just something standard and nothing special. No reason for a Yonex.

    If I compare tray/drawers, the tensioner, that's a no brainer, VE50 >> ST7000. If you field ES5 Pro, it's a total different story, but ST 7000, nothing special to spend extra money on a Yonex. VE50 is the clear winner.

    Forget the pulling angle, what I want to know is what the salt and pepper is used for. Perhaps for when the roughness on your gripper wears out? A dry lube of some sort? :)

    why do you need that victor ve 50 is better than yonex st 7000? is it because victor is a lot cheaper?

    otherwise just buy what it is the best for the price, no?

    Nice machine, congrats!

    After that post that was listing all the advantages of the VE50, it should not have been a big surprise that the VE50 is by far the better machine compared to a Yonex 7000. I just don't get why this fact is so damn important to you. :confused:

    I finally have enough space to create a permanent habitat for my stringing machine. So I decided to add a proper stand and a cover.

    I am a bit sad though that there was no matching cover available and that I had to go with a Gamma one instead. I feel like there was still some room for more green. :D

    And for reference, this is the "medium" sized cover and it's huge. I'm pretty sure you can go camping in the large one. :eek:

    That is pretty ballsy! I wanted to paint my tension head but was afraid of messing up mechanics! Looks awesome!

    It's pretty straight forward but you'll need to be very careful with the sensor pad. That was the most challenging part.

    Just send in my tension head to be serviced after 10 years, looks so shiny and new. Also ordered a replacement base for my ES5 Pro to the Protech base so it will fit my trolly, I asked them to surprise me on the color between black, white or silver, they sent me a one of a kind wood painted base, they said only one to come out of the factory.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Nice setup.
    If you're tight on a budget, I went to my bike shop and bought a bicycle cover for my machine. $20!

    Good thinking. That Gamma cover was about twice that price.
