In general, ordinary bobbins aren't sufficiently adjustable (easily) to comfortably use UNI Caenis. I use and recommend the Rite bobbin from Merco. The tension is easily adjustable for even this thread.

OTOH, I can't imagine any practical use, YMMV. cheers Paul http://www.galesendpress.com Pacres wrote: > > 50/0?
