Hey Paul! Just posting to thank you for getting me started in making my own string. Ever since I saw your tutorial on how to make string on the YYN forums I’ve been hooked. I want to start selling soon but I still don’t have a way to make more than one string at a time ☹ Any tips and help you could give me concerning how to make a multiple string rig and how to get into the string making business would be extremely helpful. Thanks again – Hadoe 🙂

I’ve taken everything I’ve learned from 6 years of handmade string production and put it all into a single format.

- No fancy materials.
- No cotton.
- No nylon.
- No loss in play, feel or longevity.
- Preserving that ‘new string bounce’ for much longer.

A handmade 100% polyester format that works for ALL styles of play.  
1A through 5A.

The customer reviews of my new format are rolling in now.  
This one makes me feel like my time at the rig was well spent

+++

Hey,  
I just got my order of your new string format in the mail today.  
I just wanted to tell you what I thought about it.

```
      BEST.
      STRING.
      EVER!

```

It’s not as soft as SC, but somehow when moving it slips and slides without any trouble.  
It’s light, and yet heavy, it doesn’t snag, and yet it binds super tight.

I can’t tell you how awesome it is.  
Thanks for the awesome work!

– G C.L. –

Thanks G C.L. for sharing your thoughts!

- Paul

STOCK UPDATE!

I’ve changed to only restocking the webstore on Thursdays, once per week.  
It helps me keep a solid schedule and makes this project less scattered in terms of my time commitment. 🙂

Today I made:

OG Peak  
[http://www.yoyogstring.com/imgs/thumbs/ogpeak250\_yoyoGstring.JPG](http://www.yoyogstring.com/imgs/thumbs/ogpeak250_yoyoGstring.JPG)  
This is the same design I released alongside the Original Blue Painted CLYW Peak.  
(Sorry for the fuzzy image. My camera hates me tonight. I’ll fix it soon…btw, it’s Blue and White.)

and also

Fallout  
[http://www.yoyogstring.com/imgs/thumbs/fallout\_yoyoGstring.JPG](http://www.yoyogstring.com/imgs/thumbs/fallout_yoyoGstring.JPG)

Yay for more stock!
