ZigZagMarquis 9 #1 November 24, 2007 Anyone out there in the verse know were to get "stuff" (and maybe less expensive) from a source other than ParaGear? i.e. Thread, Webbing, Tape, Velco, rigging supplies, hardware, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brettski74 0 #3 November 24, 2007 Paraequip Never used them, but found them on Google and noticed that they have a bunch of what you might be looking for. I haven't really looked at the prices of said materials, so not sure how they compare, either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickDG 23 #8 November 24, 2007 ParaGear sells E thread (#69) for $25.00 for an 8 oz spool. This company has it for $6.95 for a 4 oz spool so overall it's about half price and the smaller spools work fine if you aren’t doing production work . . . http://www.threadart.com/shop/category.asp?catid=63 NickD BASE 194 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZigZagMarquis 9 #9 November 25, 2007 Cool! Thanks Nick. Missed ya at Cal City today (11/24)... one day left though! (11/25) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phildthedildo 0 #10 November 25, 2007 yeah but for the same price at dj associates ya get CERTIFIED materials. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hajnalka 0 #11 November 26, 2007 Plus you can get those sample packs of E thread which I LOVE - 12 1 oz spools of asst. colors, either neon or regular. Great to have on hand for jumpsuit repairs, etc. They really are 'small quantity specialists' and have overnighted me various harware, webbing etc. when I've had to do airplane rigging in a hurry for a military SL contract or something. Their customer service has always been excellent for us. I highly recommend them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 37 #12 November 26, 2007 Last I knew they no longer had the 12 1ounce spool sets. But I just saw them on another gear dealer's web site but I don't remember who's.edit: Actually it was paraequip. Ask DJ for a catalog. It includes prices. They mainly supply manufacturing so webbing is usually only sold by the full roll. Hardware is individual but has quantity discounts. Be aware of the use. Make sure that non-certified or traceable materials are appropriate for the use. I'm old for my age. Terry Urban D-8631 FAA DPRE Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
councilman24 37 #13 November 26, 2007 From thread art web site description of e thread... "The largest size thread that will work with sewing machines. Recommended needle size is 16, 18,20. Available in 20 different colors." This is just silly. They haven't seen our sewing machines! Ya ya, I know they're talking to home users. I'm old for my age.

hajnalka 0 #14 November 26, 2007 Terry: They still have the 1 oz 12-pack samples of E-thread - flourescent or regular. http://djassociates.thomasnet.com/item/thread-nylon-thread/thread/e69-4?&seo=110 Best, Dawn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sid 1 #15 November 26, 2007 http://www.jumpshack.com/webcatalog/default.asp there's an online catalog, but for specifics it's probably better to call them......Pete Draper, Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

If you are wanting to learn some about this whole sewing machine thing, you might check it out. It is on the center of the Home page; just scroll down.
