  • Attaching bobbin to winder's mounting plate?

    Guys that build your own winders, or jerry-rig one from a drill, how do you do this?

    2 way tape is a place to start but it helps to have some way of centering tour bobbin to prevent from wobbling

      I use double stick foam tape most of the time. I don't worry about centering, and do it by eye.

      I also use wooden plates to attach certain bobbins with screws, and have even used neo magnets to hold the bobbin on.

        I make wooden plates for just about everything. You can clamp the bobbin in place and it helps to prevent flaring.

          I use a 1/16" brass pin in the plate to center the flatwork. It's an extra hole to drill but it saves a lot of time and keeps the bobbin from flying off mid-wind.
