Lyn, one other possibility, though doubtful in mass-produced commercial
bobbins such as you have, is that the bobbins were made from branch
wood. These will bend/warp more frequently than bobbins made from
limbs or wood from the trunk. As Clay says, however, your most likely
culprit is that the wood was not sufficiently dry before turning.

Ahah! That explains it. Old bobbins were made of green wood, which
will warp more readily than properly seasoned wood....
