If you do the math, the cost of the Fil-Tec magnetic bobbins and Coats Trusew are a little over $0.28 a piece, NEB bobbins are a little over $0.22 a piece, according to the Melco catalog. If you think the magnetic bobbins work that much better and therefore saves time, why wouldn't you use them for everything? I like NEB bobbins better then anything I have tried so far, my second choice would be Robison Anton bobbins. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
