Majacraft Bobbin, Plastic – Jumbo
Canadian shipping only. Majacraft's new plastic Jumbo Bobbin is made from molded plastic, specially chosen to minimize the sound made by the tension string in the bobbin groove as well as to decrease the weight. Also available in a wood version.. Launched in late 2020.
The Jumbo or Plying bobbin has a large capacity and can be used in conjunction with a Plying Flyer, Wild Flyer or Aura Flyer -- they don't fit on the regular standard flyer. They will contain up to two standard bobbins of yarn when plying or will allow you to spin longer yarns when using it to make art yarns. All the new Majacraft bobbins will now work on the Aura wheel.
In their words:
"Cutouts in the end plates decrease the weight plus allow you to observe your yarn on the bobbin when spinning. Because ABS is a slightly softer plastic, we did not want them to wear out quicker so have managed to integrate some high quality and very durable polymer bearings inside the bobbin. They are tricky to see but we promise you they are there! We have also added drive pin holes so the plastic bobbins will now work on the Aura."
