Yes, Brenda, it is much less expensive to buy the cones. Go online and check out Long Creek Mills. He ships everywhere.

CLEAVER I will have to remember that one!

Thanks for sharing this idea. I have and use 3 cone holders without a problem except that I have more than 3 machines, usually with several threaded at the same time (and on different floors of my house). Now this idea will keep all my machines that I need threaded at the same time well supplied with freely flowing thread. Looks like a great idea for the vintage/antique machines. And no more running up and down the stairs!

Brilliant idea! I'm going to try this with my featherweight.

Good idea, but I never would have thought of it. I have a treadle, but I never use it.

What a clever idea. Thanks for posting.

Brilliant !!!!

Great idea! Thanks for the tip.

great idea!!

Excellent idea. Thanks for sharing.
