Here are 5 good videos, after viewing the first one it goes right into the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th.

That's great - thanks for the link! It is really helpful to see someone doing it, even if you have done a few. I will watch them a bit more thoroughly when I have more time (and brain) available...
I wish these had been around for my first Flemish string attempt.
I made them for years before I found out about reverse twisting them. Guess too soon old too late smart... Here is a link below for still pictures of the same process.

good stuff Roy. those videos helped me a great deal when I started making my strings
Those are great videos. I'd always been a little intimidated about making my own strings, then about six months ago, I came across those videos while surfing youtube. Inspired me to order some material from 3Rivers, and now I kick myself for not making my own strings sooner.
I was making endless loop strings back in the 70's. Just got into Flemish Twist Strings about 10 years ago. Nothing finer than a Flemish Twist String.
Maybe raspberry beer, Roy. maybe
If it's made from fruit I think it's wine not beer .... lol
Roy, only 10 years, how soon after you started did you show me? That's about when I started making bows and twisting strings.
I dunno, maybe 12:)
