if i ordered a spool of sidewall string from jimalax could i use it as the top string, bottom string, and nylon shooters aswell? Would it really make that much of a difference

you could use it as top string and bottom string... it obviously wont be as strong as the usual topstring.. but def do-able... as far as using it for shooters.. i wouldnt recommend it.... it tends to have a little more whip when used as shooters... they also dont break in that well... so as your pocket breaks in.. the shooters wont break in with the pocket.. makin the whip even more pronounced

theoreticly you could use anytype of string for any location. just the durability of cross lace vs. sidewall string is diffrent.

I use sidewall for my topstring and it works almost as well as topstring. On that note, you can use any kind of string anywhere, the only variables, like HRlaxer stated is the durability.

i use pretty much whatever i feel like using. i have done mesh poctets with all crosslace. in fact i like cross lace the best because it gives you the tightest knots

yes you can, when jimalax says topstring/nylon shooters or w/e that means the top nylon shooter

When you say you want to use it for shooters don't use it as the main ones just like the top nylon ones. It works fine.
