Ok, I'm in dire need of a new string. So my choices are:

let a local shop put a custom WC string/cables on me for $125+ and be done.

OR

I can get an apple bow press for under $200 (or a ratchet style for less than $50) and then get either a Gibblet or WC string/cables.


I like the idea of having my own setup so i can do my own work, but i've never done this level of work before and im worried i'll screw it up. Also, i've never successfully served a string, ive got the tool, but havnt found a good description of how to apply.


So what do you suggest, and if you recommend doing it myself, how difficult will it be???

Thanks,
Ed
