Axe340 and stringer aid ??

Re: Axe340 and stringer aid ??
I too had problems with the stringer on the Axe. I have the older model with the gray cord. The cord would "slip" when I tried to pull it up with the charger. And yes, I know how they work, I used the same stringer on many different models from the Axiom all the way up to the BD400. The Axe seems to have a pretty tight angle with the limbs and as the limbs go up the point where the cord puts pressure on the loop doesn't hold. I ended up having to tie a knot in the cord to keep it from slipping through. I also ordered the newer stringer (#2097) which has a thicker black cord. Going to see if that works better.

Good point, I had the grey cord slip one time on my 370, and it did some damage to a limb as the pressure was pretty high. Ever since I have tied a knot as a precaution.RobD wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 9:07 amI too had problems with the stringer on the Axe. I have the older model with the gray cord.

Chris, I do not believe you own a DM stringing aid. Next time you see me I'll sell you one at a price you can't say no to. The rope creeps a bit but when Danny and I designed it rope slippage was one of the priorities which is why it has 4 holes in each block.janesy wrote: ↑Tue May 26, 2020 10:05 amGood point, I had the grey cord slip one time on my 370, and it did some damage to a limb as the pressure was pretty high.

Tried the new model stringer with the thick black cord (#2097) on the Axe today and it held without any slipping.

Between the trigger latch and ADF latch. The old model would slip before the cord even got to the ADF.

Received it today. Adjusted the rope. Used the crank and it worked like a charm No slippage or nothing.It seems to be the perfect fit for these axe limbs.

The new stringer by Excalibur is a big improvement over the older style stringer. I like the new stringer and it works awesome! I even served mine like Boo does.
