Not likely. I can see no profit to be made.LOL I am sure that someone can improve on the design.

Now that is clever. I do use a cup sometimes for my thread when I use my embroidery machine.

That's a great idea. I had put the cone in a jar but just draped it around the thingy to hold the spool of thread. I'm going to do this.

What an invention. Way to go. I use the large cones as well just because. Price is better than a lot of little ones.
Like nhnative's idea too, using a jar.
I have a cone holder to use and also had dh make my banana holder into a nice holder. He added a dowel to the middle on the base and I feed the thread up thru the link and over to my machine. Looks cute and cheap.
Thanks for sharing your idea.
