I'd recommend trying to twist your own! t's pretty simple and very relaxing to do.  3rivers sells a great dvd on it.

I have used Chad in the past, top notch work.  But have started making my own.  It is rewarding and fun.

+1 for mrpenquin.

Even if you buy one, it's a good idea to know how to make your own.

I would totally recommend myself, oo I mean yourself, lol.  Like mrpenquin and Lost arra said, it is great to make your own, plus if you buy even a couple small rolls of material, they will last one feller forever, you figure about 8 bucks a roll of b-50, I found d-97 for 15 bucks, fast flight is expensive(30), but those rolls will be enough for you to learn and probably make about 20 more strings!  I have made about 16 strings with those smaller rolls of b-50, and i still have plenty(15 strand strings).  Either way best of luck!

Josh (Oliver Stacey here). Picked up one of his strings at K-Zoo for my MOAB, very pleased with it.
