Shuttle

(Text and Picture provided to
ISMACS by Dorothy Brumleve)
[The Household] has a perfect steel shuttle,
open at one end, allowing the bobbin to be inserted without
displacing any of the parts; the bobbin holds more thread than
that of any other machine, and runs loose in the shell without
spring centres or point bearings, thus ensuring an even tension.
The shuttle "is a marvel of simplicity."
