Got ya lookin now.... laughing6-hehe

But seriously.....me and a friend came up with what I thought was a good idea. I am buying some sets from him (he bought a gross). Capped PVC pips to hold the strings I get from him.

My question is what did you use? How did you package them for maximum preservation?

Snig buddy, take a look at what I did the first time around and what I will be doing in the next few weeks.
