Maine Thread Twisted Waxed Cord for all my Leather Projects!

I've been using Twisted Wax Cord for all my leather projects for the past six years and couldn't be more pleased! In fact, I don't even look for alternative thread any longer. I buy directly from Maine Thread. Here's a picture of my latest leather bag (completed 09-01-24), made for my daughter to go tailgating at home games. I used White and Orange Twisted Wax Cord on this bag.

Hi! I received the .030 white waxed cord and it's just what I need. Could you tell me how many feet of cord is on the spool? Thanks.
