I also use use an EZ Green but I wont hesitate to take my bow to my bow
shop (over an hours drive) if I run into a problem I can't resolve in a decent
ammout of time spent on it.
Don't want to sound like I'm preaching for the shops but there are times when
the knowladge and tools they have save tons of money and time spent trying
to do it on your own.
I understand when you live a long ways from a bow shop it's a big advantage
to be able to tune a bow at home but the tools and know how to do it right
are very costly and for a lot of people not worth it.
At the same time I feel if your gonna do your own tuning at least go with
quality made and or manufacture recommended tools for pressing or draw
boards etc. Do it myself made tools are ok for less critical work only.
Even having bought quality tools wont guarentte you will not over
press or over draw a bow by mistake or over tighten a limb axle screw and
trash a bearing.
Things to think about.
