Installing center serving

[Stump Shooter]

I'm slowly learning as much as I can about archery. My latest task is installing my own serving on a new string. I ordered a serving tool and some fast flight serving string. I was going to attempt it blind until I discovered this fantastic website. Can anyone give me any info about winding the serving, tying knots and using glues? Any info will be invaluable.

Shoot straight and often.

Stump Shooter,
I myself was very confused about tying servings, no matter how many times people tried to tell me I couldn,t get it right, then I bought the Bowhunting Equipment & Skills book at Wal-Mart, it shows you step by step how to serve you string. Plus many other usefull tips.

This seems to give an adequate instructional on it:

Thanks for the link Fritz. I never learned how to serve a string either. Actually looks pretty simple.
