I must add that I went back to the web site and saw more pictures! Duh!
Had I scrolled down, I would have seen the little wheel inside the post just
like mine.
The little "stobs" that are pictured stick in the holes on the "gizmo" to
form a swift (thanks Patty for that word that escaped me at midnight last
night).
Your 4-armed gizmo is missing but I will send photos and maybe you can have
one made.
Also, the strong cord (I've never had to replace mine) has a knot so it was
fed through the slot holding the little wheel on the left. Thus, a rubber
band would not/could not be fitted on to your winder.
The more I looked at your photos, the more I am sure it is like the one Mr.
Hornsby patterned mine after.

Re: [lace] Bobbin Winder Pics
..snip..
You need a strong cord between the groove in the big wheel and the smaller
wheel that is in the post on the left of the photo. Now mind you, my
little wheel is inserted in the little post but I can't see where the
small wheel is on yours. The cord must have an X in it - something to do
with physics -.

My bobbin winder has a gizmo with 4 arms or spokes from the center. The
gizmo fits on the end of the long arm, and has removable little stobs that
will allow me to wind from a hank if that were needed. I use the spokes
to hang my bobbins on as they are wound in pairs 'cause the gizmo fits on
the post on the end of the long arm and the thread will sit on top of
that.
