String silencers
« on: July 15, 2012, 10:10:00 AM »
I am putting the cat whiskers on a new string>  I have put them on before but it seemed that they were loose on the string.  How do you guys put them on your string to secure them?

Cut them 8" long, fold them over and then tie a very tight granny knot. Just pull down each size and cut to length. I haven't had mine move in years once I placed them where I want on the string.

I searched and got a youtube video from here.  Worked great and they look great.  I even learned how to tie the clinch knot.  Thanks guys.
