[dirtyroger]

Hi,

I'm new to mkaing pickups, i've been reading and have a fair ide4a of how i'm gonna use a drill to make a winder.

My next thoughts are about the bobbins. I want to make single string pickups, how would i make or purchase bobbins for this?

thanks

Welcome to the forum Dirty Roger, again you need to learn how to use the search functions. One answer is sewing machine bobbins.

I dont need the money so dont think I am spamming but its all here
Pickup Winding Book
i sold thousands of these books- its more expensive now than it was the first 5 or 6 years but it will save you time
the other book is animal magnetism by erno zwaan- my book shows a much more standard way of making bobbins- his is a more unusual way- certainly more labour intensive and expensive but interesting.
there may be some internet sites showing a clean way of going about it- I dont know
