It is cool .... I draw out what I want and he usually comes up with something better than what I had planned. God blessed me with him.

oh I forgot to mention...you sure are lucky to have the best hubby around..a creative one too! It is very sweet of him to take an interest in your hobby and create such a useful and pratical notion for you...

angel777th by angel777th 13 Nov 2009

Sure....Send it to me... He wants to finesse it just a little. The first one is always a quickie. I am usually frustrated with something or other and we come up with an idea. Then he does a quick job so that I can get back to crafting.

This is great! I had my Father make me a stand for one spool. I might have to see if he can do something like this for me!

I am sure he could...My dad bless his soul could make anything too.....And when he passed God blessed me with this wonderful husband of mine (who actually thinks like my dad) and now he makes all sorts of things for me. The bottom is about 12" or so and it is specifically for the smaller cones. Drill the holes and bend the wire and voila there it is.

great job ,would love to have some thing like this for the larger cones that do not fit in the machine.
hope u get ur machine back soo .*4u

It would be a bit more complex with larger cones and you would need more room. I only have a small space and that is why this worked so well for me. But I know it could be done with larger cones too.

Maybe he can finesse it and they would sell it for him...Worth a try at least....Hummmmmmm.....Honey.....

angel777th by angel777th 10 Nov 2009

He was a bit upset with me because I put a picture of this on....He said it wasn't good workmanship but I disagreed. All the coments of everyone is helping to lift his spirits though... Thank you all very much!

I told him you wanted to borrow him and he chuckled. This was just a quickie fix for me but he could probably come up with a nicer looking version .....hummmm

A very smart solution. Good luck on getting the machine fixed. It is terrible to be without it. That is why you should buy several machines:)

I am not happy with the repair shop that is the closest to me - I just found a service manual and bought it . Maybe it will help.

Thanks Chris....We both love crafts and we work together. I told him what I wanted and we figured it out and he made it. This all started because I got angry with the prices at JoAnn Fabrics....LOL! They wanted $6.99 for a plastic based cone holder that only held 1 cone at a time!
I knew my hubby could come up with something.

God bless you too.
