I can and have made my own strings and cables, and fit them. In fact have been doing so since I was 12.
However 2 years ago I thought I would try Winners Choice. Unfreakingbelievable. I have given up making strings. These are SO much better than me or anyone I have met can make. I have made my own set once since and I changed them out for Winners Choice a month later.

What I like about WC strings is they work, straight from the packet, no twisting no fuss.
It takes me 3-4 hours to make a set of strings. For a set of Winners Choice my time is worth more than $25 p/h.
