ramrod Report post Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) hey folks.....well, i did a bit of digging for a new supplier for braided polyester thread. i came across schall leathermerchants out of london. possibly some of you brits have heard of them or maybe have dealt with them. due to a slight lack of funds, i have not made a purchase yet. but i plan on buying from them. i have been dealing with an employee named alex and he has been most helpful. they have a store on the UK ebay with descriptions and picture of their product. reading from their site, it seems that some (or perhaps all) of their product is leftovers from a shoe manufacturer. i looked for equivalent sizes to .4, .6, and .8 mm thread. they have .8 and .4mm equivalent sizes. they are measured by a different nomenclature (Tkt20, Tkt7, etc) and i'm not totally familiar with the equivalents. anyway, i priced a 3000m cone of .4mm thread and it's about $32 delivered to the states. the colors are earth tones, but perhaps the colors can be of use to someone. i apologize for not posting a link, but i am really over my head with computer stuff. anyway, give it a look if you'd like. it looks promising to me, and as i said, i'm very sure i'll be buying from them. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261546882618?var=560421492052 hey! i think i posted a link!!
