Genius, beautiful, and fantastically explained! Thank you sir! On a separate note, I loved the background (HS math teacher, so I am stoked to see PEMDAS on the board), as well as your helper that popped in frame briefly, haha! That would definitely by my 4 year old, but he would be swinging from the board for sure. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this, it makes sense now after seeing your process - I wasnt looping them between each other, but i also wasnt going in separate directions at first try, lol. ---

@bigbs_domain - Wanted to follow up on this - finally got a free moment to try it, and it worked perfectly! Im stoked to start making my own strings with various colorways wrapped in certain patterns! Im thinking about making holiday-themed ones for various times of the year - red/white (candy cane) or red/green or silver/gold for a pop of Christmas color/inspiration, black/orange or green/purple for some Halloween strings, etc! ![20230218_115931](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/7/9/3/793d8198f902b7a5d40049475c7f37deee7347ff.jpeg) ![20230218_115944](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/b/f/f/bff27ba731fd376af48e46c3b00d91849a091f07.jpeg) ---

In keeping up with other colorways…I’d call this one “Hulk Smash” string. Im also a HUGE fan of Hulk, so less about CLYW (no offense - I don’t own a single one of theirs, but would love to snag a “Hulk Smash” just to say I have one), and more about my love of Marvel, haha. ![20230218_133949](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/c/7/a/c7a17ab68ed5c3f6aaa2926f566deeb94c9b765a.jpeg) ---

Man, this is addicting stuff! ![20230220_225400](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/4/7/7/477c3875d7ff713b230a562f5f720fddee93a925.jpeg) And that’s just the first few color/string type combos that I tried! Once I made a rig, stuff started coming out much more consistent and smooth! [Previous page](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/tried-my-hand-at-making-strings-today/368730.md?page=1)
