Set Bonus Strings (Twists, Fades, and Blends) (Free Samples)

In this thread, either name a bunch of colors and the style of string you want or send a photo of your yoyo and I’ll make string to match it. If you really like it then I’ll send it over to you! Let’s go!

Can you do one with light blue, neon green, and white? either as a fade or twist. (Also, the strings in the second pic look really awesome, looking forward to seeing what you end up making in this thread).

Andrew was nice enough to send me several of these and they are very nice strings. They feel very soft on the fingers and have the slightest bounce to them giving a somehow smoother feel to the yo-yo in play. Give them a shot.

Yeesh, now you got me hyped up. Are they long-lasting?

So far. They are 100% nylon and that alone will make them a long lived string.

That looks awesome! Looks way better than I thought it would (and I didn’t think it would be that quick lol)

My record for spinning strings up is 6 minutes and 30 seconds for a fade, so I’m getting pretty quick!

Ohh neat I’ve been looking for a nylon string maker since the folks I used to get some from stopped (hopefully just for now) so I’m super interested. I’ll send a DM

Oh wow, these are gorgeous!
