Wax-free, 0.5mm more than 0.8mm Tiger Thread

So, first things first: This thread is not waxed. If so, this is the least waxed thread I've come across. I bought a 0.5mm spool and it is thicker than my Ritza Tiger 0.8mm filament. I also bought a pink coil with a diameter of 0.5mm. It's also larger than Tiger's 0.8mm thread. Do not use on leather.

Pros
  • LONG AND UNIFORM – Uniform thickness; Bright colors; 0.5mm, 600M
Cons
  • There are doubts

Not enough wax and wrong size

Ordered 0.5mm Purple and Yellow/Gold. At first I thought they sent me a used purple one because the spool wasn't as full as the gold one.

So far, so good. Solid purchase.

I spent some time looking for a similar cord/strand to repair/replace an aging cord/strand on an antique necklace I had. Eventually it broke so I was desperately trying to find a replacement. I used to order different sizes from the same brand/company for other projects for myself and for others but the cable diameter was too big. Luckily, after several weeks of searching, I was able to find a round, waxed, strong line I had from the same brand that would do the job perfectly. I recently had a…

Pros
  • STRONG DURABLE - Made of cotton; natural wax; Will not wear out quickly
Cons
  • Not sure
