For the Candy Cane, you just set up an extra hook in the middle so that when you fold it in half, it becomes 2 singular colored strings that wind together creati…

It reads more complicated than it is once you set up. You have a kind oh “oh duh” moment when you get the rig set up and see how the math of everything works in practice. Both brilliant and logical.

Yep. I made a similar rig with 13 pins on each side to allow for more dense fades or different location of the fades… even allows for triple fades…

Made probably close to 1000 strings and sold em all… took pictures of 90-95% of the ones I made (obviously not the entire quantity of each string, just one from each batch)
