Has anyone used the limbs as a strecher to re-serve the string ? I thought it may work taking the limbs off and placing in a padded vice to hold them.
Would it work?? notwork?? don't do it??
Advice needed---THANKS

This unit is strong enough to do what you have to do well and can be taken down for storage.
The more tension you can put on a string the more the string resists rotation, the greater the serving tension.
Some people just like stepping on rakes

It will work but I like to get the string much tighter than that.
