My Services And Merchandise
Racquet Stringing

I am passionate about stringing racquets. I learned the art in the summer of 1979 in South Burlington, Vermont. I have strung for recreational players, club players and pros. I pride myself on my consistency and attention to detail.
I have two stringing machines. A Prince 6000 electronic machine and a Prince Neos 1500. I have taken the Prince Neos to the streets to string out in public on numerous occasions. My Tag line is "Only The String Touches The Ball" I am able to help you choose strings and string set ups. If your wrist, elbow or shoulder hurt during or after you play, it could be your strings.
Handcrafted Caps

I have always worn a cap of some sort. In November of 2015 a friend gave me a used sewing machine. I took a few of my cycling caps and deconstructed them. Designed a template and began to learn to sew. I used the plastic from a small chocolate milk container for the brim because of its flexibility and durability. It took a good forty to fifty tries to get the cap to fit like I wanted it to. I then purchased a serger to make frayed fabric look cleaner. In the course of this I learned about different fabrics; mostly cottons and the different weights and qualities that they came in. I also learned to combine different fabrics to build a cap. Each cap was in itself is a one of a kind. I chose to only purchase one yard or less of a fabric. There is so much fabric out there. Even if I wanted to I could not make two identical caps. Similar although none identical. I know that essentially these are simply head coverings although I see them as my art. My outward creative expression. I am the only one involved in their creation after I have purchased the materials. Their uniqueness is reflected in their pricing.
Stickers/Decals

I'm not really in the sticker printing business. These are a series of twenty stickers/decals that I designed and had printed in December of 2003. These are some that I still have from that initial printing that are now considered vintage or classics. When these are all gone there will be no more printed.
My Philosophy
Quality

When I string I use the best available. When I sew I use the best fabrics and threads. The stickers were printed on a very high quality vinyl that has lasted more than two decades at this point.
Efficiency

I have a very fast turnaround when I string your racquet. Typically twenty four hours or less.
The caps that I sell have already been sewn. I call it sell what's on the truck. I get nervous to sew someone a custom cap as it might not come out as they expect or imagined.
The stickers are already printed. When they sell out it will be the last of them.
Fair Prices

Satisfying customers is my top priority. That’s why I believe in offering fair and transparent prices with no hidden fees or extra charges.
