    I use the 100% polyester Gutterman thread that is sold at Joann's.

    Be carefully with that injector. Break it and you will be sorry.

    no... no... break it... but only a little bit. Just make it easy to fix. Then you get to buy the wife a new one, which she wants anyway, and you get to keep this one. Keep harmony in the household with your own machine.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.
