Do you have a traditional spinning wheel that you can no longer get bobbins for anywhere?
3D modelling and printing can be the solution.
For the design work, either a sample or exact dimensions of the original bobbin are required. Since each traditional spinning wheel is unique, I need the dimensions of your particular bobbin!
One planning session includes one fine-tuning round, if necessary. Design work is priced by the hour, one roll takes 1 to 2 hours to design. In addition to this, printing and material costs and postage will be added to the total. The design of the product is a on time investment, after which you only pay for the bobbins ordered. I'll save the file, and you can order more bobbins anytime! Printing a single bobbin costs around 8-12 euros.
- Hourly design price 30e / h
- Printing of traditional bobbins 7-12 euro
- Printing on modern bobbins 8-18 euro
Contact us either by purchasing this product or by sending a email. There are several colour options, the price depends on the time needed for the design. Let's continue the discussion by email.

In the pictures, the purple (dark) roll is a modernised version of the traditional roll.
Do not use fishing line or metallic string with 3D printed bobbins, they will wear out the plastic. Use cotton string instead.
Material PLA plastic. PLA softens at temperatures above 60 degrees Celsius. PLA is an environmentally friendly plastic made mainly from plant-based materials such as corn.
