I was in the same situation as yourself a few years back when Gibblet first got started ,but with gibb,s advice over the phone I was able to learn easily . I've now changed dzn's of string's on my own bow's and friend's bow 's . So it's really not a hard thing to do when you have such a person as Gibblet to giude you through it .

I'd go with buying a press from WWAG and buying your string's from Gibb and learning to do the work on your own . You'll enjoy learning to do all your own work ,and it'll definately save you travelling a repair cost's in the future .

I've known John for a few year's now and he's a great guy to deal with as well he'll take the time to talk to you on the phone a giude you step by step .
