I have to say it is pretty easy to just spin the dubbing on the thread with your fingers. I have several dubbing tools and I cant tell you the last time I used one. Boy do I feel like a bonehead after seeing how easy it is to make Bruces Bobbins above though. Great idea Bruce. I think i will bend up about 30 of these toniight.

The only thing I found is that you need to work a little to get that bend in the spool just right; to much of a bend and it doesn't stop from falling, to little bend and you can't get it to spool off correct. When it comes to making any tool, I have found that you have to have a clearly defined purpose in mind what it needs to do and a common sense approach to solving that need. One of the geniuses at filling that type of niche is Pete, aka: hazmail. Talk about looking outside the box to solve problems... I think he does it everyday without even realizing it.

Good luck and happy constructing.

I have noticed that about Pete just by following the rotating jaws of death thread. There are some brilliant minds working on that one. Which is why I am waiting for the tutorial, I know when Im outmatched. But back to the Bobbin I was thinking that if I made one and had it adjusted the way I wanted the I could just set up my wireformer and use it as a pattern. Should be able to knock out a bunch real quick then and have them fairly accurate. Should know in a couple hours if I can get out of the gallery and get to work.
