At that point, millions and millions of wooden bobbins and shuttles were thrown away or burned in landfills. While no one can be entirely sure, it has been estimated that three-quarters of the wooden bobbins and shuttles, many of which were still in use in the 1950s, have been destroyed. Fortunately, collectors appreciate bobbins and shuttles as objects of character and interest, from a time of true craftsmanship, and are busy harvesting these relics from the few remaining mills as they either modernize or close down. Wooden bobbins and shuttles are becoming increasingly valuable as they become increasingly rare. [Milling Around]( repurposes these bobbins and shuttles as classic antique keepsakes!
