[amayausers] Re: How to Store Threads

Also, very limited space and as of yet don't know what the ultimate design
for my work area will be.  That being said my temporary solution is storing
the 1000 M cones (have all ARC colors) in 2 plastic tubs that are for
underbed storage with wheels.  They are easy access because of the rollers,
stack on top of each other neatly if need be, lids have 2 hinges so only
need to lift one end, keep the thread covered and dustfree.  Since using
these, I want my threads to be covered, hence the delay for a different
storage.

I also have limited space...the Amaya is actually in my office. I  
have a picture window boxed in with 2 'doors' behind it-we put  
samples in the window on glass shelves, etc. On the back of each door  
I put pegboard-about 18" by 5' high.
All the small cones fit on one door, in the same order as the swatch  
card. As we use up any color, I buy the 5000m cone to replace it-that  
way I know which ones are most used. Having it right there the  
customers can pick exactly what they want for color, and also if I  
run out of a color (its happened in the middle of some runs) I can  
see which color is 'almost' a match and switch over to it. Customers  
don't notice the change.
For backstock (like the black, white, red, green, blue that get used  
80% of the time) they are all on the second panel, with all hoops on  
hooks underneath. No more digging through boxes or tubs.
