Alright, first off, yes i did search and yes i kno that rail mesh is not the greatest mesh but its not for me...

I'm stringing this pinched revo for my buddy, and he wanted new mesh so he bought some and gave it to me to string...i dont think he knew that it was rail mesh but thats probably not a big deal. anyways...How do you string the shooters on the weird piece of mesh? i have been working on it for an hour and i cant get it to be good at all...

any help would be great

I have attempted rail mesh twice and failed each time. The rails do not whatsoever channel the ball. In your case, just act like the rail isnt there and weave around it.

Roll them. If you want to weave its exactly like twists on a RP when it goes over the leather

definitel roll them its alot easier. the stuff isnt really all bad, i got a piece that came in my answer and i put it in my hype with a really big pocket and it sort of channled the ball but you need to really stretch it good.

1.) Take mesh out of package
2.)Place on ground
3.)Pour lighter fluid all over it
4.)Light it on fire
5.)Watch mesh burn
6.)Buy Jimalax Mesh

Thats what I would do.
And do straight rolls
