A couple things.

Post by Sel » Sat Feb 14, 2009 12:22 am

Does anyone have a video tutorial on how to make cyberlox falls?
I found one on youtube, but it was rather uninformative.

And if I plan on making a pair of falls, I was reading the other topics and it said use 3-4 bags.
That is all fine and dandy, but if I order from IKickShins, she offers two sizes of bags 5yd and 10yd.
Do I need 3-4 five yard bags or 3-4 ten yard bags?

It's 3-4 10 yard bags, and if you want them super long, you'll need more. In my experience, whenever people are talking about cyberlox and just say "bags," they're almost always talking about the 10 yard ones :)

If you go to my website, you can get an idea of how many bags I use by the color options.. like the short large falls allow up to 4 colors because I use 20 yards (aka up to 4 5 yard bags) to make the set:

When I first started selling cyberlox falls, I made some short, medium, and long falls, and then I did the math based on those to figure out how much to use for the other lengths.. so they're pretty consistent :)

Thank you both.

I realize I probably didn't need to make a whole new thread about this, but I am still such a newb that I didn't think of just asking the question in one of the other ones until after I hit submit.

Ah well, too late now.



Thanks again.

I always use 2 ten yards bags for chin- and shoulder lengths. 3-4 if they have to be longer. ;)
