What is the best weight of yarn to use with this?

I'd use at least worsted weight. The stock yarn is a soft, barely spun, two-ply, chunky acrylic. My daughter is currently using a sock weight, but we're going to line her purse with fabric since it's so lacy. You could use a double thickness of sock, maybe.

I believe it is a 40 weight. Very thin & fine. If you are looking for a good weight thread, for a heavy fabric - try Sulky Brand or C&C Embroidery Threads. I use cotton coats & clarks a lot even though class instruction will say it's a no-no. My little machine does fine embroidering with cotton sewing thread.

We just use a bucket. It doesn't matter at all, the knit cord is all that needs to go into the solution. Dipping the cord straight down & lifting it straight up without getting the loop all tangled is the main idea. Container could be many different shapes or sizes & still accomplish that.

the highest braid capacity recommended for this reel is 30lb and you can put 205 yards on this reel. According to Penn website.

I would think so.. the tube is not very big and if you use a yarn that is tight, it should be good.

medium is the safest choice for majority of carbon arrows. Aluminums are usually larger in diameter. Check your arrows.

Sure;If you use 80 lbs.braided line can handle anything you hook,I always use 80lbs.braided line in all my reels.No problem at all.

Very soft tip on this thing. I wouldn't go over 1 1/4 oz. I used 1 oz cast masters no problem with a wright and McGill 2500 saltwater reel and 20 pound Seaguar Kanzen braid.......casts a mile.

I think you could probably use red emboidery thread for it...and a big, heavy duty needle. Go to a craft store and look at their selection. I'm sure you will find something you like. Good luck! :)

This yarn doesn't say what ply it is. .but i can tell you it's super bulky #6 and calls for a 16mm or Q crochet hook and 15mm knitting needles. hope that helps a little. ..

Hi, sock yarn (very fine) 2 for ladies average size. I don't know about thicker yarn sorry.

Shouldn't have any problem with 100% cotton. It has more problems if the yarn is too large or too small of a weight.

My nag weighs about 40 lbs if not more with all my gear in it. Depends on what gear you have and how much your going to fill it up. I would go with a roller if you have a lot if gear like I do

I have not nor would I recommend it. This machine was made for a worsted weight yarn and even then it's a looser knit. If you used a finger weight/sock weight it would be like knitting those with a size 10.5 needle, which is fine if that's the look you're going for. The other problem I would see is the super fine yarn can be a bit difficult to slip so I could see the machine catching on it or things going awry like dropping stitches, etc.

You shouldn't need anything very heavy. A basic foam target would do fine. This bow doesn't generate all that much velocity.

I'm using spider wire FluroBraid 30lb, so far it's been pretty good, a couple of wind knots but they're easy to pull apart.
