"I think I know just the seamstress that will need this to work on some special fabrics my party leader found in the first elf city." Gil had thought of Lisa immediately and knew that she would be fond of it. "What do you recommend for bow string though? Do you braid it for the crossbows?" 

"I do, I usually use seven strands braided together to make one crossbow string. I would recommend less than that unless you are going to make the body of your bow stronger. I learned the string to body material lesson the hard way when I was younger." 

The crossbow crafter was thinking back on the time he had made a wooden crossbow that had a weaker wooden body due to the money he lacked. When he had added the stronger bow string it caused the body to snack back and sprinter in his face. This was very common for younger crafters when making equipment without proper guidance.
