I have been using Isacord thread with Coats bobbins for about 15 years now, that combination works well for me on my EMT. I would imagine an Amaya would run it well too. Used to buy it from MelcoMart when they used to be called Accessory Resource Corp. but they droped the Isacord line about 10 years ago. I get directly from Ackermann now.

At recent shows I see there are several available and I have always used Arc thread, but was wondering what everyone else uses or prefers in their Amayas. If you have some experiences with the different brands can you share the positive and negatives??? Thanks! You rock.
