Alot of people/a few idiots think it is 5 uses per spool of thread but it is 4!  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 90.230.216.195 (talk) on 15:03, 29 June 2009.

Getting four uses per spool is very common, though 5 is uncommon, it can in fact happen, if anybody disagrees, i can share a video as proof.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Shinydude100 (talk) on 18:17, 17 July 2009.
I'd like to see that proof. Jagex's own knowledgebase states "You will only need one needle to craft with and each roll of thread will last four uses." I highly suspect that these people are misscounting. You'll also need to show the messages that are printed after the items, such as 'You make a pair of leather gloves.' and 'You have used up one of your reels of thread.'

Removed said part of the article until proven right. ShinyUnown T | C | E 20:36, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
I completely understand and i still stand my ground on being correct, i will address the youtube video that i JUST uploaded for viewing, its in HD and i also got out of HD and took a picture in low detail for further evidence. Link will be posted here. Shinydude100 20:42, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

Here is the video as proof

                                       Depends on material... When I crafted soft leather it was always 4, but with hard        .                                         leather it was 5. 84.2.206.127 18:52, March 3, 2012 (UTC)

If your computer supports it, you may view it in HD as well. Shinydude100 17 July 2009 (UTC)

This isn't proof; there is terrible video quality (everything is blurred, like the text) and you could've just used another one. I need 100% legit proof to confirm this. ShinyUnown T | C | E 21:04, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
Also, if it's such a rare occurrence, how did you know it would occur as soon as you told it to make 5, and not through repeated attempts? I am not me 21:08, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

What the... spent 12 mins rendering it in Sony Vegas 9 at the highest quality possible, watch it in HD killer, it looks fine and not blurred at all. I honestly don't know how rare the 5 spool use is, and i was very confident I wasn't lying, i just got it right on first try. I remembered it sometimes gave 4-5 uses due to my horrible crafting, I was getting it up last week for the Lunar Diplomacy quest, and ever since then I've remembered about the 4-5 spool use. There is also a picture in low detail clearly showing the messages and spool. I don't know how much clearer you want me to be.

EDIT: also, watch the mini-map or the characters in game, they don't jump around abnormally I did not mess with the video by any means. My PC Resolution is 1280X1024, used FRAPS to record. If you STILL don't believe me, I'll upload the original video that is crystal clear to an upload site, i had to compress the Youtube version of it with Sony Vegas, but I promise you this is legit.

I've decided to go along with this, we don't need a whole argument over thread. O_o I will now undo my changes. ShinyUnown T | C | E 21:24, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
