Laurie and all, Regarding the Australian Torchon Lace Machine:
I have one of the US made/sold Torchon Lace Company pillows/machines, unfortunately minus the bobbins they were cut off leaving the pattern and lace pinned to the roller. It also includes the original booklet. The bobbins shown on the Australian pillow are not at all like those pictured in my booklet. The bobbins pictured are more like the 'Danish Beginner' bobbins we see today. Is there any documentation as to the 'straight shaft' bobbins shown here? I can see that these straight bobbins would be easier/cheaper to make, but it leaves me wondering.
