Great idea to insert a Q-tip for stacking a matching bobbin on top of the smaller spools. I haven't mastered a method for matching up cones and bobbins yet....any suggestions?
On some cones, a golf tee works with the tee part down in the cone and the spike sticking up to hold the bobbin. I have been using chopsticks stuck in the cones to hold my bobbins on top.
