credit for the best spinning tech idea

I found the post! Artsygal on Ravelry posted about using a cordless drill to wind singles onto a dowel.

I adapted the idea to Spinsanity's Lazy Kate (PVC bobbins on a dowel rod base). I inserted screws into the PVC bobbin caps, rigged a shoebox to poke my spindle through, and it works like a dream. Winding singles onto a bobbin has never been faster or easier! No tangles, no mess, and did I mention how much faster this method is? (The shoebox lazy kate idea also came from Ravelry -- best site ever!)
