Okay, so it’s been 2 days that i ran out of string… I ordered a pack of kitty but they wont be here till today 6pm…And boy am I going crazy here. I’ve got absolutely no string…I even threw away my dead strings… i haven’t played for 2 days and im experiencing near withdrawal symptoms… Have any of you guys had a similar experience?..should I be cutting down my time playing with a yoyo? ---

Don’t cut down on playing! Learn to make strings! A little spool of polyester thread could make plenty of string to get you through hard times… Or, you could save money and use your own string exclusively! It’s awesome! ---

Make strings, and when you see you’re getting low on strings, buy some more. That way when you do run out, you’ll have a fresh pack waiting for you. ---

This sounds horrible. I usually keep a reserve of stock strings that come with my yo-yos. I only use black, so all other strings go into the reserve. It’s like preparing for a storm, you have to stay stocked up for hard times. I put the reserve in a plastic container for emergencies. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/2/2/2222b5d6ac3584dbd67b4cbcb072548faa747485.jpeg) ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/2/6/4/2642e1b2a001aa4ef84c063ea78d0b30708a44ef.jpeg) - Using YoyoExpert App ---

I go through the string I have very slowly, so I won’t know. Totalartist that is quite the back-up supply. ---

Yeah, it’s grown over the years, for sure. You might even notice a few rejected black strings among them. I didn’t like the feel too much, so they went into reserve too. \*YoyoExpert App ---

you can’t yoyo too much, unless it’s cutting into the time you spend with your kids/distracting you from school/distracting you from important work. anyway, always buy a pack of strings when you have like five strings left. then, you’re all set until the pack of strings come. ---

I do make my own strings on occasion, but my motor broke and making it by hand would have taken too much time… I wanted to ask you this TA …why only black?and what’s with the double loop round the bearing?..Most players use a neon string so that it is visible in front of their black clothing…is it vice versa for you? ---

I’ll run out of my favorite string (Yo Yo String Lab Ammo, Ann Connolly Pool Party edition) but I also have a 100 pack of Kitty String normal, a 100 pack of 50/50 for looping, a 10 pack of Kitty 1.5, a vial of Venom String, a pack of twisted strings, and all the free strings that came with my yoyos. So no, I probably won’t run out soon. ;D ---

I’ve made 35 strings last 3 years. Don’t throw out “dead strings”. I find old strings whip better actually. ---

10 cloud strings and 10 packs of BG1 Yellow Jackets. Im set for a couple years. I find its better to find longer lasting strings. I really find them to be worth the cost and effort to find. ---

I like the look of black string, that’s why it’s my favorite. The loop, well, that looks good too. :wink:
