Members Nuttish Posted June 14, 2015 Members Report Posted June 14, 2015 That's Gutterman upholstery thread. It's ~0.01"/.25mm off the spool. Quote
Members Constabulary Posted June 14, 2015 Members Report Posted June 14, 2015 (edited) Maybe Ebay Germany. Is it your thread spool? Usually they have the thread name, a colour number and thread thicknes mentioned on a small sticker on the inside of the spool. I´d assume the therad name is TERA (Polyester thread) Edited June 14, 2015 by Constabulary Quote ~ Keep "OLD CAST IRON" alive - it´s worth it ~ Machines in use: - Singer 111G156 - Singer 307G2 - Singer 29K71 - Singer 212G141 - Singer 45D91 - Singer 132K6 - Singer 108W20 - Singer 51WSV2 - Singer 143W2

Members DrmCa Posted July 10, 2015 Members Report Posted July 10, 2015 Thread Exchange carries lots of poly and nylon thread in all kinds of sizes but the color hit and miss. When the project can afford it, I order a couple of colors that are very close to what I think they describe their thread as, and one usually matches. Quote Machines: Mitsubishi DB-130 single needle, Kansai Special RX-9803/UTC coverstitch, Union Special 56300F chainstitch, Pfaff 335-17 cylinder arm walking foot, Bonis Type A fur machine, Huji 43-6 patcher, Singer 99 hand cranked, Juki DDL-553 single needle (for sale)
Members Nuttish Posted July 11, 2015 Members Report Posted July 11, 2015 thanks for the pict. if i need in 0,5-0,6 thread what do you suggest? Guterman upholstery thread comes in that one size, so it's not going to be suitable. If you're looking for nylon or poly, DrmCa's suggestion is good. If you want linen, try Crawford's Irish linen. It comes in a great variety of colors and plies that will come close to what you need. I get it from Royalwood in the US. I have no idea about Indonesian sources. If you're making watch straps, .6mm is an enormous thread. Quote
