I know zip about Saluki bows, or endless strings. But 'stilldub' on ebay just might. Barry makes all my d97 flemish strings. Good luck.

Never made an endless but have made three flemish for my Toth horsebow. Stilldub makes a great string not sure if he makes endless though.

I bet if you provided string length and loop size most of string builders could help you out.

Pretty sure that the only thing kind of specific to one bow or the next is the size of the limb tips so that your loops fit properly. If you give a string maker a length (preferably measured on your bow at your desired brace height), a draw weight, and approximate poundage, these guys can set you right up.
You’ll also want to tell them what size nocks you shoot so that they fit your string properly and then just pick your fiber/string material.
It’s nowhere near as complicated as I just made it sound. But a phone call and maybe a few pics from your phone will help.

I do endless. Would need specs - length,loop size, and length of end servings.
Also Chad Weaver has done a lot of them, and may be quicker at getting them done.

I have contacted my regular string maker – he doesn’t do endless. I need 4 inch loops on both ends of the string and another string builder said the longest he could do would be 2 inches. So…….? Thanks for all the replies, Jim.

Odd that the string builder has a limit as to how long he can make his loops...
What is the overall length of the string?

A 4” loop requires at least 8” of serving.
Many endless string jigs utilized posts of 8” or lass apart making serving 8” long difficult.
I might suggest contacting Saluki bows for a replacement string.

Yup Champion Chad in Mississippi'. A direct decendant of Chief Crazy Horse once told me " Vaquero if your not makeing your own strings , never put a two dollar string on a twelve hundred dollar bow " ! I never forgot that bit of wisdom .........
