> I saw that 5-in-one-pass rig. But I cant help but think that quality is being sacrificed. I like having every inch of thread pass between my fingers. I know there are no tangles, bunches or knots. I also know that different threads (even colors of the same threads) stretch differently. Having the string pre-stretched properly is a key part of my process, and the biggest problem in making a static rig. Where it folds is a different spot for each type of string. Maybe if i was smashing out hundreds of exactly the same kind, but I dunno.

I saw that rig too. Looks like a good way to crank out quantity of just single colored or multicolored strings, but there’s really no way to do any interesting patterns. If I were to get into the biz, I’d come up with a rig that could at least semi-automate fades, twists, and hard transition patterns. I even have a pattern that looks like a US flag. That would make my strings more distinctive in the market. But, I’m not getting into the biz. I turned a hobby into a business before and it killed the joy for me.

I want to focus on 2 things with this project.

High visibility, and high performance.

Ill leave the super duper awesome artsy stuff to the others killing it already. I dont know how well they will be received, but ive sent out a couple string packs this morning. Well see if they stand out to others like they do for me. I may just be biased and they are crap. Well see! haha 😃

If the strings you sent me with my Tundra were made by you, than they definitely stand out to me. I love them!
