I need information on where to get a needle for lacing. I have some 1/8" Kangaroo lace an, I'm trying to lace a project an , nothing is working. I have those needles you are suppose to screw the lace in, their not working. I have used those split needles in the past an I know there re junk. What kind of needle works best for you an where can I get one ?

Thank you

You want the needles that have a hole in them and one prong. The lace goes through the hole and then under the prong.

I use the Tandy two prong needles for all my lacing, and have never had problems with them.

Threaded. Always. Never met a lace that didn't work with them, long as you have the correct size (the XL latigo needle wont work well with 1/8" flat lace).

Just checking......you do know how to skive the end of the lacing to fit in the various needles, dont you? And how to trim the lace overhang in the flat needles prior to use?

I have used all three types of needles mentioned above and they all work fine for me.
