All my bobbins are cheap. It's very long, so won't make a good divider pin (at least for me), but I'm sure I'll come up with something to do with it. Stick some lace flowers on it and make it a Christmas ornament, or something. > >or will it do bad things to the thread? > > The join's not likely to stay together long enough *to* do bad things > to the thread... :) Unless you join it by bitting (drill a hole in both > neck and body, stick a short piece of a pin/needle down both holes, > push the broken pieces together along the metal "core", glue > *both*along the shaft and the break), That's way too complicated. I don't even have anything to drill a hole with. Thanks, now I can just get another one and stop worrying about it...
