Hello Massimiliano.
You need to talk to Billy Vivona at northeastrodbuilders.com or just NERB's He sells Madeira thread and thread packs. Hope that helps. Tight Wraps & Tighter Lines. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 11/14/2023 05:34PM by Robert A. Guist. Re: madeira shading codes

It would not be right for someone to just send over the color codes Billy uses in his shade packs as he put in that time and $$$ to bring in product and find the colors that work well together to make up a specific spade pack. While it’s certainly not something that could be trademarked or copyrighted or anything it is “Intellectual Property” in a sense and would just be bad form to pass along the color sets to anyone else Edited 1 time(s).

Look--- shading isn't hard. Just go to the place you say you have access to that thread and buy several spools in the same color family. Dark brown, medium brown, light brown, pale brown, tan, etc. They probably have a color chart for each color family. Use them all or just three or four. Re: madeira shading codes

The trouble with someone selling you the "codes" is that it is all too easy for those codes to be electronically shared far and wide. Not hard to put yourself out of business that way.

I get wanting to save a few dollars - and I’ll admit I don’t know what the import duties into Italy would be - but at the same time is spending that small amount (relative) extra to purchase from someone that supports the rod building community and provides goods and services to help further the craft in various ways not worth the extra?
I mean it seems the same folks that are looking to save 50 cents or a dollar off a $10 spool of thread will be the first to want “free” knowledge on some specific rod building technique or to complain how their customers expect a custom rod for price of one at Walmart…. Support those small businesses that support the craft…. Re: madeira shading codes

The import fee are 22% plus the delivery (is taxed too) And we have that spool fot 3 euro each here... Just dont make any sense to buy spools from there , I want to pay for the knowledge No problem by the way... i have a shop near home carry all the colours that i didnt know. I will just go there in person will be easy to find the shades Sorry if my answer was misunderstud, never wanted any free knoweledge Re: madeira shading codes

Massimiliano - the last part of my most recently reply was not really intended to be directed to you specifically but to a more general audience. My apologies as I was not meaning to imply you were looking for anything free or such…. Just struck a nerve on something that I see across the rod building community. Re: madeira shading codes

If so, I can't remember paying for it. maybe because of the quantity I bought. Re: madeira shading codes
