Thanks for the tip. I noticed the tail flared out quite a bit and wrapping it like a guide wrap on a rod crossed my mind. The half hitches weren't as bad as you might think once I started to put some effort into keeping them bunched to one end. I was pretty sloppy with 2 of them which is why you see some odd strands covering the wraps in the close up.

I do have one question for the masses, I bought a ceramic bobbin but the A thread I ended up getting is on a huge spool. Any tips on where to find a smaller empty spool that I can wind some of the large spool into for use with the bobbin?
