What your missing is that strings are not a thing, but rather a place. Strings are seperate dimensions around which energy accumulates. Strings are waveguides that simply contain energy around the outside of the colapsed dimension. Strings don't vibrate without the energy envelope, the energy vibrates or more correctly oscillates in the same way all energy sources oscillates. The string does not exist without energy envelope, it is unavoidable. The accumulation is an attraction toward the null energy region within the string area. This region is void of energy and this is the reason matter is stable at certain fundemental resonances. A proton for instance is three strings or pieces if you like. Three quarks that are connected to form a proton through energy resonances. There is no physical connection between quarks or for that matter between particles. It isn't that particles are stable but rather particles are in dynamic equilibrium. The Casimir effect demonstrates that energy can be rejected all that is necessary is to consider the area within a string to be void of energy. Then energy simply tries to reinflate the collapsed dimensions of strings and you wind up with energy bundles. If that image is unclear, think of a string as the principle of "skin effect" at microwave frequencies taken to the extreme limits.
