So, if you’re like any yoyoer out there, you’ve probably got tons and tons of old yoyo strings. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what to do with all of them.

Strange, I recently re-threaded one of my sister’s necklaces with some old yo-yo string. (Of course, I was the one who broke the necklace :P)
