it should of come with instructions, but briefly, Put your lips to one of the holes on the side of the reel, and suck. The end of the thread will come out. you then re wax the end. You may need to watch the tension on the reel. adjust this as per instructions.

what ever you do Don't take it apart.

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

Once Dale, in an American Military Academy, a student saw another student (a magician) in their room doing this.
Now it is in their Code Of Honour to report any drug taking especially sniffing heroin!
The poor young magician, he was not sniifing & then had to show the accuser how the entire gimmick worked. Luckily believed.

I never got on with the Boss model at all. It did keep breaking as many times as the cheap poor Indian models.
Much better with the 2nd model, James George put out--the Micro. Approx. 5 inches (12cms) long and about half the thickness of a pencil.
But my favourite was the original--The Standard.
Magicians shunned this as it was approx. 6 inches ( 15cms) long BUT for me--it only broke twice in 5 years.
