Ashford Jumbo Bobbin | Lacquered Finish | Single Drive
109.15 د.إ
Spin bigger and cleaner with the Ashford Lacquered Jumbo Bobbin. Engineered for Single Drive wheels equipped with a Jumbo Flyer, this bobbin features an expanded core and a durable, glass-smooth finish. The factory lacquer protects against lanolin buildup and ensures that even the most textured art yarns and bulky plying projects wind on smoothly, providing a massive 100g (4oz) capacity for your most ambitious fiber projects.
The Lacquered Advantage for “In-the-Grease” Spinning
In 2026, many artisans have returned to spinning raw, unwashed fleece to preserve the fiber’s natural character. The factory-applied lacquer on this jumbo bobbin is a game-changer for this style. Unlike natural wood, which can absorb lanolin and become “tacky” or sticky, the lacquered surface remains slick and is easily wiped clean with a soft cloth. Your yarn—no matter how oily or textured—will slide off the bobbin during plying with zero resistance.
Heavy-Duty Capacity for Art Yarns
If you are spinning “Super Bulky” weight yarns, coils, or beehives, you need space. The 100mm (4″) flanges on this bobbin provide the volume necessary to hold a full 100g (4oz) of high-texture yarn. Because it is precision-balanced, it handles the increased centrifugal force of a heavy load without the “wobble” that can fatigue your legs during long treadling sessions.
Precision Tension Control
This bobbin is designed specifically for Single Drive (Scotch Tension) systems. The lacquered flange provides a consistent surface for your brake band to grip, allowing for micro-adjustments to the “draw-in.” This sensitivity is crucial when you are nearing the end of a large project and need just a bit more tension to pull that last bit of bulky yarn onto the core.
