3. Yes, strings do stretch. This is why we use a 65 pound tested spectra fishing line which only needs tightening about 3 times after you first assemble it, then it works fine.

I'm planning to try Spectra and will pre-stretch it before installing it. Maybe I'll hang a 3kg weight on it? Or would it require more or less weight? I'm hoping this would allow the line to stabilize more quickly and require less adjustment when on the machine.
