Thanks to all the members for the great information on restringing the Dat Night Shades.
-snip-
I do have another question and that is after I have restrung the shade which now completed how do you figure out how long to make the line that connects to the string knob that is mounted to the wall.
Is it all by feel and a slow adjustment for the tention?
Once you get the ends on the bobin for me it became obvious how long and what tention to put on them for the blinds to be adjustable yet not slip. Once you try the first one I think you will understand.
It is a three or four hand job to get the strings at their proper length.
Good luck.
