Help restringing pleated blinds?
      I seem to be unable to locate Andy's diagram for restringing pleated blinds.  Thanks.

I'm not looking forward to the day we have to do this.  I'm betting it takes the skills of a surgeon!!  No sir, not looking forward to this project one bit.  May box them up and send them to Jim & Gayle. 😉

If you show up in person I'll do it. ;D  Actually, once you have the blind off and the top piece off it makes sense. The bigger aggravation is remounting and getting the tension set on the lines.

We've been lucky since we open and close them all at least once a day in 9 years and have only had to replace 2 or 3 and now I've jinxed us.

Be careful of this post.  Last time I responded to this topic, one of the day/night blinds on our tug broke the string the same day.  Cause/Effect?  One more thing to fix.

Taking them down is a PITA.
