String Changing Resources

A few strings broke on my harp not too long ago (thanks, Irma! [maybe?]), and I do not enjoy changing strings! So, I thought I’d put together a little roundup of some resources that might be helpful!
This string octave chart with the staff from Sylvia Woods Harp Center could be really helpful!

This video from the Virginia Harp Center shows you how to tie about 3 knots for your harp strings.
Here’s a video from Thormahlen Harps on tying string knots.

Check out this instructional video from Molly Madden on knot tying. (Did you see her guest post?)
Peter Wiley demonstrates a string knot in this short & sweet video.

And here‘s a video from Sylvia Woods.
So are you a string replacing wiz? Or not? Or somewhere in between?

Are there any great resources out there that I missed?
