Tony@Mastertone	Re: Bobbin/wire shift Wolfe Yeh that happens but having everything at 90 degree's will minimise the affects your getting.. I tried to do a little diagram using stick figure symbols but it didn't work.... so I will draw it up and send to your email... It only needs to be out a by a couple of millimeters and it will play havoc with your tracking. If you set you bobbin centrally to the tensioner turning at a low very low rpm, say 20rpm.. does the wire stay in the centre or does it track to the left or right, if ot tracks then your wire isn't perpendicular to the axis of the winder...
