[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 234909, member: 16749"] Based on [url=http://tinyurl.com/ThreadQuality]some research that my wife and I did a few years ago[/url], it appears that Gütermann is the best thread, with Coats & Clark a fairly close second. Gütermann: [ATTACH=CONFIG]63540._xfImport[/ATTACH] Coats & Clark: [ATTACH=CONFIG]63541._xfImport[/ATTACH] Some cheap no-name thread: [ATTACH=CONFIG]63542._xfImport[/ATTACH] My wife's sewing machine kept jamming, which is what prompted this research project. It turns out that that last thread is the thread she had been using in it, and it was what was causing the problem. These picture were taken through my microscope using my 10× objective and my 10× eyepiece. The images are approximately 1.44 millimeters on a side. [/QUOTE]
