The Swedish bobbin winder can wind a variety of plastic or wooden bobbins from various manufacturers. It has a built-in screw clamp that mounts it to a tabletop, shelf, or counter, with the shaft running parallel to the edge of the surface. The crank handle mounts on the front of the winder and turns a worm gear, which turns the shaft. The motion is fast and even, allowing you to wind dense, uniform bobbins quickly.

The shaft tapers slightly, allowing for openings of various sizes on the bobbins, ranging from a diameter of approximately 1/4" at the tip to just under 5/16" at the widest point. This bobbin winder accepts:

• Leclerc, Schacht, and Harrisville bobbins

• Schacht, Bluster Bay, and Leclerc pirns

• Leclerc plastic spools (but not cardboard spools

MUST ALWAYS BE TURNED CLOCKWISE. MUST BE OILED TO MAINTAIN GEAR.

This is our preferred bobbin winder.
