Add more flexibility to your spinning with these sectional bobbin inserts for the Electric Eel Wheel 6.x by Dreaming Robots. These are perfect for spinning up small samples of fiber, or for workshops when learning and practicing new techniques. The two bobbin inserts allow you to keep spinning without having to change your master bobbin; simply move your yarn guide to the next bobbin and pick right back up! Since they slot onto your existing bobbins, they spin with exactly the same tension and uptake as you're used to. Simply unscrew one end of your large bobbin, slide the assembled bobbin inserts onto it, add locking plugs to each insert, and thread the large bobbin end back on. Small triangular locking plugs keep the bobbin inserts locked in position relative to the master bobbin and each other, so that they don't spin freely on their own. A complete set of two bobbins needs three locking plugs to fully secure the set in place. Two plugs are included for every bobbin insert; this way you have spares just in case you lose one (a set of 2 bobbins includes 4 plugs). Please note that these plugs are only compatible with the original style of EEW bobbin shown in the product images. You can use tape to secure the bobbin inserts to the ends of other styles of master bobbin. The bobbin inserts even have clever notches built right into the rim for you to secure your spinning in place while storing your yarn. The large master bobbin (the original EEW 6 bobbin or equivalent) is not included with this set. These bobbins are printed in high quality, eco-friendly, industrially compostable PLA plastic. Please remove all fiber before composting. If you would like to download the STL file for free to 3D print your own bobbins, you can do that here, and you can find my 2-bobbin tube here. These STL files were designed by Maurice, the owner of Dreaming Robots and engineer behind the Electric Eel Wheels. Color options Click here for a gallery of available colors.
