A look at an interesting thread that recently came to my attention.
It's round, it's strong, its cheap, whats not to like.
Have a look, see what you think.
An interesting update…
We have just heard back from Vinymo and they put their sizes as follows:
Size 1: .8mm
Size 5: .6mm
Size 8: .4mm
I agree with the Size 8 being 0.4mm but think they are generous on the other two.
What I have here is closer to:
Size 1: .6mm
Size 5: .5mm
Size 8: .4mm
It is possible that they are measuring prior to spooling and given the stretch of the thread, I get a different reading off the spool.
I have put it all through the Vernier and am happy with the measurements of the thread I have here.
These measurements are consistent across the colours I have.
You can see for yourself in the video what it looks like, you have a choice of small medium and large, I think that should cover the inconsistencies.
Just be wary, the size may differ slightly dependant on tension at time of spooling.
