Majacraft Kit – Plying with Wooden Bobbin
Canadian shipping only. Price per complete kit with WOODEN bobbin..
The Plying Kit is made up of a plying flyer and a wooden Jumbo bobbin. The plying flyer has an easy to thread delta orifice that is very simple to use. The wood Jumbo)bobbins have a large capacity and will hold up to two standard bobbins of singles yarn.
NOTE: LITTLE GEM WHEELS require the special Little Gem Mini Tension Knob with any of Majacraft's wide flyers, including the Aura, Plying or Wild flyers. That's because the standard tension knob sticks out too far and gets in the way of the wider flyer arms. It's listed here below the various flyers and flyer kits. We usually keep it in stock.

Majacraft Bobbin, Plastic – Standard
Canadian shipping only. Majacraft's newly upgraded standard 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. The original tan-coloured plastic bobbins are no longer available. Launched in late 2020
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."
