Sorry for going back to the basics but I have a couple of questions.

1. when I wrap the string around the post on the jig, can I simply tie the two loose ends together? If not, how do I keep the string end together? Also what knots do you recommend.

2. I want a two colored string. Let' s say I want a 20 strand bow string, do I just use one color and make 5 complete loops around the jig and repeat this process for the second color?

3. Once I get thee end loops served, can I stop serving and twist the string and put it under tension so I can serve it real tight. If I serve it tight without twisting the string, then I won' t have a twist throughout the string (only on the unserved portion).

I hope these questions are clear. I don' t mean to be a problem but I really want to learn how to do this. I just bought a winners choice string for $100. If someone else can do it, so can I. And alot cheaper too. Plus it would be fun since I love to tinker.

Thanks
