Okay Doug - You've had long enough to think about it. Which is your favorite? The suspense is killing me! :D

William - I choose the middle one, 'cuse it's scruffy (like me).

In my dubbing block I have placed the brass nail where Pete has his big one. I have then made a notch in the exact center of the rounded end. This way the thread gets perfectly aligned and stays put in the notches in opposite ends. This also makes it easy to put the thread over the dubbing and lock it in both notches prior to starting spinning the silk

It is good to see you posting again. I'd be on here more often myself,but it seems I am pretty busy these days. I still have those wonderful hooks you mentioned here a while back. I smile thinking about that hidden little stash. I'm wanting to get better before I use them. DD, please show of some of your work when you are able.
