Smile Hello

Hello from the frozen North land of Wisconsin. I am pleased to be a new member here on your board. I work on rods much smaller than most of you use in FL. but I am looking for a very special spool of thread for a Top secret project. I have a competition coming up this August that Iam working on a major project for. I have been asking on every board for the last 11 months now for a spool or cone of Holland Black size D thread. I have all of the other colors I needfor the weaving project, but I have yet to find this spool/cone of the thread.
So I would like all of you to maybe ask around for me please. I do not want anyone to just think that I want it for free, I am willing to pay a reasonable price for it. A few of the west coast rod builders have told me that there is a really close match for it and I have a spool, but I would like to be able to post on my sign that the total weave is done in Holland thread.
Thank you for reading this post and I hope to maybe hear for some one about the spool/cone that I am looking for.

SFC okay here you go

just a few of the small rods that I have done/working on.
the Purplr Heart was done by Doc ski and was disigned by myself. It was for Doc's father a WWII vet, that had earned a Purple Heart.
