Looking for the leaf green thread or an equavalent that Phillipson used on their pacemaker series in the 1950's. If you have a spool to spare or know of a
good match I would appreciate it.
Take care

I've matched the main thread on two Pacemakers with Belding Corticelli #9375 ("Parakeet") and clear lacquer. However, I understand that (1) this
is probably not the original thread from 1950s rods (not sure when the 2 rods I wrapped were made) and (2) there may be some variations in the thread that was
used. Can you post a picture of the wraps?
You may also inquire at Rick's Rods, as he seems to have much of the original Phillipson and Granger thread: http://www.ricksrods.com/ --Rich

Mike Sinclair states in his Bamboo Restoration book that Phillipson Leaf Green = Gudebrod 6779 nylon which is still avalible.
