Really good job with the tutorial! I am really glad you talked thorugh it, I think that is very helpful to people who are starting to begin string making. I am curious if you have a specific starting length?

And to viewers of this video.

You can also time how long you twist your string or do the way jake did it.

You might want to tell people what thread to buy because I make string and I go around 15 to 16 times. This is due to the fact that thread come in different thicknesses.
