Not sure whether this is the same tool, but Marc Petitjean has a bodkin 
especially for splitting thread, that is basically a sowing machine needle with 
a handle. I’ve made a number of these myself over the years (to sell and to 
give away); they’re dead easy to make. Get (buy, or pilfer someone’s sewing 
basket) a heavy sewing machine needle, like a jeans needle, and attach a 
handle. Viola...

Re: [VFB] wally wing tool

2019-02-18 Thread Joyce M Westphal 
The needle has a hook on one side that grabs the side of  the thread and
pulls it apart.  He mentioned that one could feel the tiny hook with their
finger.  I have asked, in German, where one can buy such a device. The
video did not say where one could obtain it. I use a common sewing machine
needle as my thread splitting needle and it seems to work quite well.
However, I'd love to get my hands on the Spleissnadel.

Can’t imagine how expensive that vise cost? I have three vices but don’t think

Hm Rick,

not sure if it is the same video,

But the link leads to a video, which demonstrated a needle which helps 
to split a thread, It's in German, so I'm pretty sure.
