Hi everyone,
I have answered Bev privately since I'm on the digest and that one only
arrived today.
And to make a long story short,
yes my "dibble" is exactly like the one shown on the website Bev mailed us.
Have a look. It makes a bobbin when you screw a big screw in, perhaps not
the best bobbin but when you have nothing else to play around with it
probably will do.
I haven't tried it out myself although it is on my list of "to try.."

As to bobbins. While on my tour with OIDFA this summer I saw a good idea
for making your own bobbins. You use the plastic part which you knock into
the wall, the piece you screw in your screw later , use a large screw and
the part between the top of the screw and the plastic will hold your
thread.
It is what we call in Israel "a dibble".
