under the bed in the Guest Bedroom. It was the late 80's when my wife was sewing up a storm for the daughter's clothes. The rack & thread has been shuffled from closet to closet to under the bed for over 20 years. I took a length of a nice Blue and used a clamp to weight 1 end and tied this with it just to test the strength. I tugged on it pretty good and it held up fine.

Thought's anyone?
I gave all the Cotton/Polyester blend to the daughter to sew with & just kept the 100% Polyester. Ended up with several hundred yards of light pink, black, blue, gold, pastel green, brown & white.
