Bulk Red Nylon String. Just red. Just nylon. Lots of it. Where can I buy it for a good price?

I love making my own but it’s too durn hot in my garage.

What kind of nylon? Are you looking for something bouncy and slick (airetic), or something textured and stiff (kitty nylon)?

Bouncy slick. But not at airetic prices. I need enough for the whole summer, which will last into November in my neck of the woods.

It doesn’t get much cheaper than Airetic for that type of material

Years ago there was a guy that was selling string he was making and it was the nylon stuff. He said he was selling them for $6 for a 10 pack at first to get them out there and feedback but he told me was actually losing money selling at that price

I don’t buy thread or make strings so idk for certain but that’s what he told me 🤷‍♂️

Word. I’ll either have to bit the bullet, or invest in a string rig I can bring indoors. Thanks all!

There aren’t any bulk strings with that material quality. If you like Airetic strings you should get some - they last quite a while compared to normal bulk strings. I use some bulk & some airetics in my yoyos and I go through over 100 bulk strings in the same time as maybe 15 Airetics.

Airetic can apparently last for a long time. I’ve been playing with 1 slim string from them for 3 days and have 0 fraying .
