A friend of LOML's is trying her had at lace, and mentioned she'd like to have some longer bobbins than the one sold at the semi-local store.
Anyway here's attempt #1, we'll see if they fit the bill or not in a week or so when I have a chance to drop them off and she gets a chance to try them out.
The little hole in the end is for a loop of beads which are not (as I originally thought..) for weight but to keep the bobbin from unwinding while it's hanging there.
The narrow part is what the thread is wrapped around, it's about 1/8" nominal.
