I have made different solid color flimished twist and it is not hard and no reason you cant get B50 white, i have a couple spools that i use all the time all i do is take one Bundle of the string an tape the ends together so i won't get them mixed up and at the finish take the tape off.  :archer2:

That's all I've made in the past 3 years.  I got a spool of white FF and make 3 bundle fast flight flemish strings.

I like the tape idea.  Just recently figured out that I was doing everything correctly except twisting the wrong way at the very end.  That only cost me about 1 spool of B50 to practice.

If my osage stave ever arrives, I want to make a white string for that bow.  I agree, might get dirty (or bloody).
