New brothread 2X60 Spools Wooden Thread Rack

looks super aesthetically pleasing on my art supplies wall. you wont regret buying this.

Isn't it amazing how people shop for the absolute cheapest version of whatever they need and then complain that real human beings didn't spend hundreds of hours painstakingly crafting each individual one? You've been searching for a cheap thread holder and now you've found it. It's exactly as you should now imagine it to be. It works. It's made of wood. It's held firmly together and it holds spools of thread. It even hangs on the wall! I refer to it as singular because even though it ships as two separate racks, it's very easy to add a couple of picture-hanging hooks to the bottom-rear of the feet of one of them to link them together into one big rack. What's that? You don't know how to nail a hook into a piece of wood? The manufacturer should have included it already done? Don't we all sew? Aren't we makers? What happened to that maker spirit? Yes, this piece is not completely finished by most people's standards. You could use it as is, but there's a good chance you'll want to finish the piece. That will involve sanding, staining and/or sealing. I decided to take the sanding & sealing route, mostly because I was out of wood stain. I sanded the entirety of both racks with a 150 grit sandpaper. You may need to resort to 100 grit if you have some significant rough patches. There should be no need to use a finer (higher) grit sandpaper. Given all the tight spaces, I see no other way to do this than manually. The only other option is to find a way to unseat all those pegs without breaking them. I couldn't think of a way. Once both pieces were fully sanded, I applied a single coat of oil-based polyurethane with a 1" paintbrush. If you aren't familiar with PU or working with hazardous inhalants in general, you should probably stick with just a stain. PU is powerful stuff and takes a long time to dry, so a well-ventilated workspace is essential. It wouldn't be crazy to wear a respirator or gas mask while applying this stuff! And you can't just leave it outside because the wind will blow dirt and grass all over it. So you have to be creative about how to devise a well-ventilated, yet protected, space to apply the PU and allow it to dry. If you happen to have a sunroom in your house, you're all set. Also, it can be reasonably argued that a PU coating on something like this is overkill. At this point, I can mount this rack in a tree in my backyard and it'll be fine for years. But my point is: Make it your own. The bones are solid, just finish it the way you like. And if that isn't good enough for you, then there is another listing that is fully complete at 3x the price. Have at it.

Was exactly what I needed for my thread storage.

These racks are great and you certainly cannot make these for the price that you’re paying for these, shipped. You will be surprised how quickly you can fill these up. In fact, I would suggest that you purchase the number of these that you will eventually want - in the same order - because it’s important to have them all match. Not just for the aesthetics, but for the dimensions to be the same so they look consistent on the wall. I actually mounted 2 strips on the wall 3/4” by 1“ white pine strips; across five stud-spaces so that I wouldn’t have to worry about using special fasteners in the drywall. Doing so made the lineup of these very much easier, with way less hassle. One strip at the top, to hang with screws, the hooks on the racks. And one across the bottom to keep these from leaning at a strange angle. (The racks just rest against the bottom strip.) Worked like a charm. If you think you will eventually want 4 or 6, total, by them NOW. These do not hold the Mega-Throne-Giga size spools, but what reasonable person would think they would anyway! Ha! Super value for the money. And wow, what a lot of surface and shelf area freed up when the thread is on the wall. And they look cool. But form always follows function. Your mileage may vary, but mounting a rail at the top makes the installation a breeze.

well built, sturdy, and good looking. However my Isacord thread spools have to have every other spool upside down in order to fit. The other brands I have seem to fit well enough. Would definitely buy again.

These nice looking thread holders/ displays, are great for organizing and quickly finding the exact needed color. I love the small stand for use with my immediate projects. They are just as described and shown online. Well packaged for shipping.

Exactly what I was expecting.

Very good quality. I use these to keep my buttercream piping tips organized.

Simplemente tengo que decir que la calidad del estante es muy buena, robusto, perfecto para todos mis hilos
