Sectional Warping - Cheap Spools!!!



If you don't have a source of cheap, used spools to populate your sectional warping spool rack then the cost of buying 70 or more spools is huge (350 euros if you buy from Louet!!!!!)

Here is how to make them yourself. Made from 35mm long, deep-cut cotton spools and beer mats, which are 90mm diameter.

Glue two spools to make a 70mm long spool and glue the beer mats on each end. They fit all the spool winders I have found for sale, though I use my own. "Seemple", as the meerkat says :-)

I bought everything off ebay (though if you live in the UK getting free beermats should not be a problem) They cost me less than £25 to make 60 spools
