*I buy a pack of the mono loops they sell for dental floss. They come in a
pack of @25 and are less than $2.00 at Wally World or K Mart. Since I
started using them, I haven't used my wire one's at all. If you really
prefer the wire threaders, let me know and I will send you one.*
Same here, I have been using them for about 20 years.

that I wish I had some of to use, this mono I'm using, i just can't seem to get
that crimp to stay just right, and it is always too wide to go through the
bobbins tube. Chuck

Neville: You know, I haven't thought about that, but my wife has the
traditional needle traders in her sewing kit, and I have some 22,24,26 and 28
gauge wire that I could just solder one of her traders to and that would
probably work great. Thanks, Chuck

over my tying desk so I would always be able to find at least ONE. LOL, Chuck

Chuck,
If using the dental loops, stick the tail end through the bottom of the bobbin,
don't go through the top end.
The thin tail end will slip through the bobbin stem and it leaves the loop open
to run the thread through it.
