Thanks.

Call me stubborn or annoying or whatever but I'd still like to mess around with my creation a bit longer and see if I can make it work.

So...do I want the cone of thread to sit still while the thread unravels off the top? Is that my goal?

I believe the way I had it set up, the cone was spinning around as the thread unraveled.

One issue I can see is because I have an old machine, my motor is mounted externally on the back. When I put the thread cone in the back of my machine, it was getting caught on the motor. I had to move it to the side and now I see it touches the belt. I need to get the thread up higher as it comes off the cone.

I may end up buying the store bought gizmo in the end....
