I used to put wound bobbins in a bobbin roll when starting a project, ven at
home, but got really fed up when some of the hitches had undone. So I made a
bobbin 'horse'. It's an MDF shallow box with an upright at each end the
width of the box (about 2 and a half inches), and an inch and a half
diameter wooden rolling pin cut to the length of the box between the
uprights. I covered the rolling pin with cotton fabric so the pair of
bobbins stays put when hung over the rolling pin. If I'm travelling with it,
I just put it in the bag that carries all the rest of my stuff. It fits in
just nicely.

It's also got braid stuck round various edges to hide where I didn't hit the
nails correctly when making the box. :-D
