I recently built a rig to make fade strings and wanted to share them! ![IMG_0099](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/a/e/4/ae4a20d987a7a56662e4e6fa9bfb7c3555e0dca1.jpeg) ![IMG_0098](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/9/2/192bdbffeaa1c51ac6cadb105ac1f6123ced22ae.jpeg) ![IMG_0097](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/1/7/2176b245652820326e34ec981df9eb165edac7a1.jpeg) ![IMG_0096](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/b/a/bba9b97dc5946ff5cb0fdc5999c261d4b8dba6ed.jpeg) ![IMG_0095](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/e/1/7e1207596ccb1952c8014421863b4d069ec6459b.jpeg) ![IMG_0094](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/4/2/442b432b3f958251a8867c169c8783c56403bd00.jpeg) ![IMG_0093](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/8/8/f/88f82f0ecf568735a9a28bf9c9d81c14ac9f836c.jpeg) ---

You should sell them but give more then 3 strings like most places. 3 strings for 10+ is crazy. You could make some money if done right ---

this is the article I used to make it. There should also be a video of someone that explains it which I found very useful > **[Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/StringMakerz/s/17dsXBrFoR)** ---

Thats not a bad idea. So far I haven’t planned on selling strings, mostly because the strings felt weird when I started out. But I spent days calibrating my rig so that the strings would turn out exactly how I wanted (Both looks and playability). ---

If you’re interested I would be willing to sell some if you want to DM me! I could do $17.50 for a pack of 5 and I would eat the cost of shipping. I could do a mix and match of strings if you want. and if you have a specific color combo in mind I can see if I have the thread for it ---
