Hi to All Turners,
I keep getting asked for these Wooden Bobbins for the Ladies Spinning Wheels.
Apparently it is wise of a Spinner to have Extra Bobbins, 6 / 8 instead of 4.
I never seem able to make these things, never get them right.
There are many & varied Wheels, & all have Different Bobbins.
These days they have a small insert of what looks like a very hard Nylon Composition in either end of most Bobbins, so as they don't wear out as easily.
Mostly the problem is, The Price the Turner wants & the Price the Spinners want to pay.
1 Chap made one & asked $22, & that is quite over the top. You can make them & ask that price & you will end up with them.
The Ladies are as bad as us Turners buying wood or what ever, Everything has a price.
I have Googled several makes of S/ Wheels for their Bobbins, which is pretty good.
So, if you are interested, please PM me, as I have Ladies that would most likely buy from you, as well as Spinner Groups.
Regards,
issatree.
