Default hand made bobbin

My brother wanted to start to tie jigs with me so i made him a bobbin. It is not the best thing, but i tied a little with it and it seens to work very well. it is a little hard to make the pressure on the thread the right amount but we final got it. so what do you think.

Default Re: hand made bobbin

Looks pretty good-- I made a few like that when I first started tying. (You can buy them pretty inexpensively in most tackle stores now.) One thing you can do if you need more tension is let the thread wrap once around the side leg of the bobbin.
