SMALLER BALL WINDERS
Built-in clamp, plastic case, nylon gears. They wind a ball 5 inches across.The two versions work the same. We can't always get both, and may need to substitute.
JUMBO BALL WINDER

LECLERC HAND-CRANK BOBBIN WINDER
A light but strong hand bobbin winder with completely covered gear.
Tapered shaft for all Leclerc bobbins and spools. Clamps to a table
top up to 1½" thick.
GLIMAKRA HAND-CRANK BOBBIN WINDER

paper quills, most sizes of solid bobbins. A lifetime machine, Swedish

ELECTRIC BOBBIN WINDERS: AVL & SCHACHT
Powered by sewing machine motors, controlled by sewing machine treadles,
mounted on a hardwood board. Electric winders are spoilers—you’ll
never want to wind by hand again. These are double-ended winders; they
have a driving cone and a spring-loaded idler cone: they’re for bobbins
and solid quills. AVL has steel cones, Schacht rubber.
