Re: [lace] Clamp bobbin
Excellent photo, Mark. That's the fine wire clamp sold by Radio Shack, two to a package. Each package had two - one red, one black. One type has the end that pushes down open on the end, thus the wooden insert. They have another "style" that is closed on the end.that pushes down. I've used these little boogers for years and have given many away. I put a medical syringe holder over the end to provide a "pusher." I sued to use a hemostat. (Give a nurse a tongue depressor, a hemostat, and/or tape and she can do miracles!

" This is exactly the Test Clip Adapters from Radio Shack with a hand-made wooden handle. The part number is 2700334 and unfortunately are no longer available from "The Source" (formerly Radio Shack) in Ottawa, but I did buy up all that I could get my hands on when available.
