Greetings - Not sure if this is really the correct place to post this, but thought I'd ask.  When I purchased a used Artisat loom several years ago it came with a number of boat shuttles.  One of those was a LeClerc double bobbin shuttle.  But it seems like a 3 inch bobbin is the only thing that would fit.  I've tried some Internet searches, but don't seem to see where 3 inch bobbins are even listed on eBay.  I hate to have a shuttle that just becomes a paperweight.  Does anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.

Contact LeClerc about the correct bobbins for your shuttle or just use quills - storebought cardboard or homemade from rolled paper or soda straws.
