Frequently Asked Questions
What does the magnetic core actually fix?
Spring drift — standard bobbin tension changes as the bobbin empties, so stitch quality at 10% remaining differs from 100% full. The magnetic core holds tension constant across the whole bobbin, which is why production studios standardized on Magna-Glide.
Why pre-wound over self-wound?
Industrial winding tension is more consistent than any hand wind — and the winding time saved across a studio week is real labor.
When is Linen the right bobbin neutral?
Warm backings — natural muslin, unbleached cottons, tan and cream fabrics — where white bobbin thread would read cool if it ever pulled through.
Linen or Cream in the bobbin?
Linen runs slightly more golden-tan; Cream is softer classic ivory. Match to the backing's warmth — most traditional studios stock both.
Any tension adjustment on switch-over?
Usually minimal — run a test strip per new jar before client work, then it's set-and-forget.
