Thank you for doing a 4 string shade and being explicit with the directions. It takes a women to be more detailed. I am more confident to do the stringing now. All the others just did the easy 2 string blinds. I will follow your channel. I just bought the string for I could get a longer length single cut cord that way and didn't get the kit from Amazon.
Thank you for your video on restringing a 4 string shade. My husband took ours apart about a month or so ago. We just got new string today and forgot how it was put together. Thank you again.
welp, i've done a bunch of just the two strings before, but one of my big shades just busted and here i am. looks like i can just follow along with these handy folks and get fixed right up. i didn't buy a kit, just have a roll of the string, and that has worked well for me so far, so crossing my fingers. thanks for the video!
I knew I could count on you for a fix. String just broke. I am not looking forward to doing this, but now I know how. and what I need to order. Guess I’ll be brushing up on my knots! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for such detailed instructions!!! Thanks to your vid I just restrung my 4 cord large shade! So GREAT to have light again with the shade now raised❤. Thanks so much again!! P.s. you’re not kidding about adequate workspace would make the job so much easier. Oh well, we work with what we have on the road💪🏼🤷♀️👍
Very well done video! Haven't had to do that repair yet but I'll look this video up when the time comes. My BIG Question is how do you hold the pictures on the vinyl wall covering? New video idea maybe????
Alan, I've been hanging photos/art in my Escape by using fishline that attaches to each of the top two corners of the art and then the fish line runs up along the wall into the cupboard above, then I tie two knots up in the cupboard around two screws to hold the photo/art at the height I want, and then I use velcro simply to hold the photo/art against the vinyl wall. Maybe these women have another idea too, hope so.
Hi Alan, thanks so much for watching!! We use 3M Velcro Command Strips. They work great and we haven't had anything fall off the walls. I love Ann's idea too!!!
Hey Ann, that's a GREAT idea!!!! Can we use it in a video? We get this question all the time. We just use velcro command strips but I love your alternative as well!
Excellent! I'm in my Escape only 6 or 7 weeks a year, but I'll be saving your video for sure. Really great explanation and video, thank you. Where did you buy those kits?
At some point you will probably have to repair one :( You can buy a kit right off of Amazon. We did put a link in the video description for future reference.
my hubby has been a commercial fisherman his whole life so he does the knots also lol!!! although I am the horse person I’ve had horses my whole life so I had to teach him how to tie a horse with being able to be released in case it gets into an emergency situation Which a horse Always seems to have that haahaa!!! I felt very empowered 😆😆❤️😁😁
Well, that did NOT look like fun! But thanks so much for another great instructional video -- if one of my blinds bite the dust down the road I'll rewatch this and do the repair!
@@AdventuresInNoMadness Well, here I am rewatching this video because one of the strings on a blind broke -- dang it! I was trying to slide a piece of reflectix behind the blind and it broke the string. Ugh. So step one is re-watching your video and working to psyche myself up to tackle it. (Frankly, I think I'll let the shade dangle until we get back from a beach camping trip next week. Maybe by then I'll be ready.) Thanks so much for your helpful videos!
I probably would have just used 1 string per side and looped it in the spring that way could do twice as much, and wouldn’t have needed a fancy knot 🤷🏻♂️

Hi Mary, thanks so much for watching and for the compliment!! Glad it helped!
The mind of a mechanic or engineer, a thing of beauty to watch.
Awww you're sweet Dennis!
This was a pain in the arse but did manage to get through it via your video, thanks!

Hi Nonya, thanks for watching and so glad our video has helped!!! It's kind of a pain to re string but totally doable!
I knew I could count on you for a fix. String just broke. I am not looking forward to doing this, but now I know how. and what I need to order. Guess I’ll be brushing up on my knots! Thanks again!
Great video, was wondering when mine would break! Granddaughter just gave me a repair project😆 thanks for the detailed video.

That is awesome! Are you able to have horses now since you snowbird back and forth?
You both can really tackel any problem. 👍🏻👍🏻😀😀😀🥂🥂
Thanks Ineke, we sure try!
God video. Thank you.
I'm trying to replace the cloth not the string. Any videos on it?
No but if you replace the you will have to restring it unless you buy a whole new assembly
Well, that did NOT look like fun! But thanks so much for another great instructional video -- if one of my blinds bite the dust down the road I'll rewatch this and do the repair!
It was not my most fun thing to repair that's for sure!!
