AVL 5.5 " Pirn
End-delivery shuttles require special bobbins, called pirns which fit securely on the shuttle shaft. While they do not rotate, the yarn feeds off the end of the pirn in a non-tugging motion. They can be wound using single or double ended bobbin winders. Available in 5.5 in length to fit the 13 in Bluster Bay End Delivery shuttles.
Item Number: 63750000.
Price: $4.75/ea.
Quills
Before there were plastic bobbins there were quills. Quills are too narrow to fit on most single-ended bobbin winders, so you'll have to wind them by hand, or use a double ended bobbin winder or a special quill winder (see below). Available in 3.5", 4", 5" and 6" lengths. Sold in packages of 10.

Bobbin Winders
Single ended bobbin winders have tapered shafts for standard size bobbins and pirns. Quills, however, are too thin and require special quill winders fitted with narrow shafts. Double ended winders, especially electric ones, can be real time savers, if you weave with exceptionally fine yarns, or if you warp sectionally. Only double ended winders can accomodate cardboard spools.
