Why did you pick this product vs others?: This thread is AMAZINGLY STRONG! I love it. The color is magnificent! I made a CATIO out of some screening material and some nylon border material (like a thin seatbelt material) which was also this fabulous turquoise color. I used this thread to stitch this all together. The screen is 25' long and 4' high. I stitched around both top and bottom and both ends twice with this thread and still didn't hardly make a dent in the spool of thread. I attach the entire assembly to the camper using strong magnets along the hand rail and the vertical frame of the camper. The cats have never even attempted to get out. Color: TURQUOISE is my favorite color! My son was a Marine who was KIA in Afghanistan. He was buried in NM, the land of Turquoise. Yarn quality: Extremely heavy duty! Sews in a machine easily! Thread breakage: I've had ZERO breakage! Quality: Great quality Size: I have a bit too much, but better too much than too little!

I modified my Chinese shoe patching machine to use, probably the thickest thread you want to use for this machine. You need to bore out the hole in wich the needle slides into. And possibly sand the side of the bobbin carrier so thread won't bind/pinch. Also the needle will be longer so you need to adjust the shaft hight for that. I used an Orgon leather needle: TX190LR 180/24. AND: Thread 45 10D. Tex 45. The bobbin will only hold about 12 feet of thread as it is thick. All in all good stuff , nice and thick works for my jeans!

Thread was exactly that I needed, and the color was a match to my application. It doesn't stretch and is fairly easy to use. This will need to be put onto a smaller spool potentially, like I did to use with sewing machine. I didn't get tangles and I don't think this will break easily, as the tensile strength seems really good.

I can't say how well this thread performs in a sewing machine because I did not use it for that purpose. However, I can say that the "Tex 70"-diameter thread is extremely well suited for hand-crafts like bookmaking. It is thick and strong enough that you will sooner tear the paper of the book than snap the thread; the only way I was able to break it by hand at all was to knot it and pull as hard as I could (you won't snap it with your hands by accident either; it almost cut into my fingers before it finally gave). Most important of all, since this thread is bonded instead of merely being two smaller strands twisted together like polyester upholstery thread, it does not unravel nearly as easily, and threading it through the eye of the needle is as simple as regular cotton thread. The size of the spool it is wound on caused comparatively little line memory (the tendency of the thread to curl up on itself as though it were still on the spool), which made it easier to manage backlash and knots while working with long segments. Overall I'm very satisfied with this thread and will be using it exclusively from now on in my stitch binding activities — my only quibble is that there aren't more diverse color options to choose from and some of them aren't accurate (the purple is so dark it's almost black).

The product is great, just what I needed. It took a long time getting here. But Alaska seems to be the end of the earth. Our stuff gets hung up in Washington. It bops around between Kent, Tacoma and Seattle for weeks sometimes.

Perfect for sewing up our boat seats
