3/4-10-UNC-2A thread, first cut just to make sure if gearbox settings are correct using a pitch gage.
It's required, because you can't be sure if everything is OK - gears could be changed during repair. I also had to check if the live center is concentric with chuck and to catch one nut of compound - one of the holding bolts was fully unscrewed.
You can notice the smaller diameter live center with thin tip - even being a bit off the axis, it gives some clearance for cutting tool to be able to disengage the half-nut in case if it will not be fully engaged or if it will miss the point somehow.
I love all wooden spools with their original labels and markings on them!
The acrylic box is from the Container Store.
nylon thread is expensive. I buy it in bulk (eg 1 lb. spools) but they are too large to fit my machine's spool holder. I built this holder for four spools plus a hanger for my bobbins. The top of the thread feeder has a bent paper clip sticking out of each side to guide the thread up and out to the machine.
I came across this thread while going through some boxes for an upcoming garage sale. I have no idea how old it is, but the price has to speak for itself!

My Grandma, who was an amazing seamstress, passed away a couple of years ago, and we had been meaning to sort through her sewing notions and thread and fabric for a while. She had an amazing range of colors represented in her thread, and we sorted it by color (and had some fun playing around with building towers from the spools). I plan to display these on a wooden thread rack, where all the colors can brighten up my room.
A time/thread based experimentation: I recorded fragments of a conversation every 5 min and then took my notes and googled the fragments. I then went back into the google search contents and highlighted the results and began to look more closely at the content and the connections RNDMly generated.
The thread is Baroque, ecru, size 10. Crocheted with a Boye size 6 hook.
The design is probably by Patricia Kristoffersen but I haven't located yet the pattern book it came from.
