Hi Stephane, How are you using the stringing hook? Do you simply "pull up" or do you "pull up and slide" . Pull up without slide will get the string to the top of the agraffe. This can also be accomplished by tapping from below with the action out. (which I prefer). Pull up *with* slide will deform the string which can compensate for a "less than perfect" agraffe.
