Me, too! And unless it is a specialty thread I need, I almost excluseively use cone thread. I would suggest though, if you can find a metal cone/thread holder I think you will like it better because is heavier and sits sturdy, the plastic is pretty light-weight. Also, I buy a lot of my cones from Atlanta Thread (not affiliated, just a decades-old customer) - they have every kind you can imagine and at reasonable prices, with frequent sales.
