Master dink also modified his machine. He cut part of the base on both ends, shortening it to allow him to mount the crank tensioner closer than stock (tennis).
What part would be the base of machine and what would be the point mounting the crank tensioner closer than stock?
I rewatched this just because, and I noticed two very minor things Dink does that saves time and increases accuracy. 1) In order to save time, with his opposite hand Dink "loosens" the string he's about the tug with the string mover. Watch it and you'll notice it. What it seems to do is give him a little more play to get the hook in there and tug that string out. Very minor detail, but seems to save time, putting the string mover down, moving the string out a little bit, and picking up the string mover. Very fluid, very natural. (Only during crosses) 2) When cranking, Dink seems to crank pretty fast, but if you notice, he only does about 90% of the crank right away, and slows on the last part before it locks out. During those last moments he aligns the string and prepares to move the fly clamps in less than a moment after it locks out. This seems to keep the tension consistent through out the job, seeing how he doesnt give the crank time to lose tension.
I've got the stringing video but not the pre-string one. Has anyone got the video of dink doing the prestring?
I have the video but i cant send it. Dink has it up on google video still so you guys can find it there. Quality still isnt the best, but its fair.
Why not just pull each string like the stringers at the World Championships or any Yonex sponsored event? Double pull is a waste of time since you would pull each string anyways? Why not REALLY remedy that laziness by pulling each string and providing a professional string job? Just curious.....
