Ceramic bobbin holders are expensive. I use cheap metal bobbin holders. Sometimes feather craft has good deals on cheap bobbins under their web specials. However, I do have one ceramic bobbin that I started using for wire only because it did get a scratch that would break my thread.


Speaking of the scratch/bur. I read recently where you can take some kevlar thread and drag it back and forth through the bobbin holder and it will smooth out the scratch. I have not tried it yet though.

disinfect your wading equipment. wash boat. disinfect livewells / sumps, wash ur dog
