Question 1

Is this TSA approved? (In other words can you take this on a plane?  Those pointy scissors make me think this would not be allowed)

Accepted Answer

According to the TSA, scissors are allowed if the blades are shorter than 4 inches. However, you are at the mercy of the TSA agent who might not know or care to follow the rules and confiscate them anyway.  "Scissors - metal with pointed tips and blades shorter than 4 inches are allowed, but blades longer than 4 inches are prohibited."  tsa.gov/traveler-information/prohibited-items

Question 2

Will this kit work for little boys, or just little girls?

Accepted Answer

Certainly It is non-denominational also :-) Many colors and everything you need for simple repairs.  If it is a Pack or some other camping equipment I would recommend a Rathco kit as the thread is more heavy duty but maybe less suited for clothing repair as the thread is only in military colors.  Be ad vised the sisors are very cheap and probably only good for cutting the thread.   I have both they are very inexpensive.

Question 3

When closed, what are the dimensions of the kit? Width, length, thickness?

Accepted Answer

I don't have it in front of me, but when closed it's like 5"x5"x1" or maybe 6"x4"x1".  (Length x Width x Height)

Question 4

I cant get any threads to unwind! They're wound up so tight and won't come loose. How do i fix?

Accepted Answer

Thanks for purchasing our sewing kit. Use a needle or pin and scrape across the top of the thread from one side to the other. The end of the thread will appear.
