That is not the way to use a starting clamp....it should be placed on the outside of the frame and I would suggest using something to pad or protect the frame from scratches such as a Parnell Pad. You could also use a set-off device which will protect the string from getting damaged.
Bradley Cranford Gonna have to respectfully disagree a bit here. I used to use a pad but after stringing my own prince racquets a couple hundred times without a pad or a single scratch, I've decided it is unnecessary. As for using the starting clamp on the inside of the clamp, I don't see why it would be a problem. Could you let me know if you know a specific learning for my own learning? From what I see, the pressure applied to the frame would be equal and if anything it should be easier on the string as it has the frictional hold from wrapping across the outside of the racquet before entering the starting clamp (never noticed any string damage)
TennisBySpize you may want to consider joining the USRSA or IART. Neither organization would endorse this type of use with the starting clamp. These organizations are a membership of professionals who have their customers best interests in mind by offering only the world's best services and techniques. Their techniques are well tested and proven to be the best. You are definitely a very intelligent stringer but you would really benefit from learning better and more techniques from the world's top stringers. Why not become a world leader yourself in racket services and pass your expertise to your customers.
