Where do you store your strings? Without a yoyo bag.

If you don’t have a yoyobag you can just keep them in a sandwich bag or a pencil/art box.

I use a Zipline string thing for on the go. Half pint mason jars for at home storage. I like to keep different brands and types in separate jars.

Yay, string talk! [I spin my own]

I’ve got 4 hooks on my yoyo shelf. One is for my “performance blend”, one is for regular poly, one is for spent strings, and one is for experimental recipes.

When the spent string hook gets full, I tie them all together end to end and feed my string ball.

Everything is in a cheap little plastic bin from Walmart. Zipline in one ziploc, kitty in another, cotton in another and a ziploc with tools, lube etc.

I like your art work! It really adds to the string display, or maybe your string display adds to the art work. 🤷‍♂️ I like it though.

I don’t even think string storage. I have string in bags of all sizes hidden strategically throughout the house, I have it in bundles, I have it hung in places, I have string every where!

Def. Nice touch. Zoom in and you can tell it’s a painting. I didn’t notice it was at first. Great painting inside of window frames!

Yeah, it came with the house. It’s honestly pretty good.

I didn’t make any of the art there! The nice painting came with our house. The other works of art pictured are a diagram of my string rig, and me and my daughter yo-yoing, both drawn by my 5 year old daughter.
