The bobbins are wood and the spots, which are actually rods of pewter and go
right through the width of the bobbins. I had one fall out of one bobbin and
I superglued it back in. Neither pewter nor wood rust. Only iron does.
Can you explain further what you mean by rusting.
Each pewter spot on the one I have (which I can't find at the moment) is
proud of the wood by the same amount, and the wood isn't worn in one place
more than others. It definitely looks as if it was made that way and not
that the wood has been worn away.
