I'm sort of in the same boat. The problem is that most of mine still have thread on them, and I can't bring myself to unwind them. Those ones I display. The empty ones (Or the ones I can see wood through the thread, so there's barely any thread on them) I rewind, but the first picture is the sum total of the spools I have to rewind.
It's not the spool side that launches, it's the one with the H&L Tape. Technically, I need stronger H&L, or a more balanced spool / bobbin combo. Otherwise, the straw would be a great idea.
