Is there anyone on here that builds strings for micros?

I have used both Danny Miller and Boo (Don Katsumi) for Flemish strings and been very happy with both.

Thank you. Getting back into Excaliburs after a few years, what is the difference in a Flemish string and the string that the bow comes with?

Boo and Blacktail are both members here that twist up good flemish strings for Excaliburs. I dont know if Perry24 makes flemish strings or not.

The factory string is made from a single length of strand material wound over 2, 1/4" posts. It's called an "endless loop" or EL string.
The Flemish Twist string is made of usually 26 to 40 (depending on material) or so individual strands twisted together. IMO, the chief advantage of Flemish strings is
#1, ther beautiful
#2, they give a quieter shot
#3, ther more forgivin to limbs
#4, ther stronger at the limb tips
#5, you can make em without a jig
#6, ther handmade, each one an individual work of art.
#7, IMO, they increase pride of ownership.
Once you own one, yer factory string will only see backup duty. Wouldn't consider anythin but a Flemish string on my Excalibur, the one I have on er now been on for 5 seasons.

I use Blacktails flemish strings for all the reasons Jack Pine mentioned, mostly for noise and vibration suppression. But damn don't they evah look good.

Jack Pine laid it out well. The quieter part alone is worth it. It 's one of them "just do it" things!

Ludy, before ya install yer new string, make shur yer old serving ain't bein chewed by yer claws. If ther not perfect, it'd be good ta correct that problem first if ya haven't already.
