I edited together some footage I shot 10 years ago of the tooling being made for ThroBak repro PAF bobbins, our slugs being made and covers being ground and buffed. I also included some bonus footage of historic Dean Markley string winding machines and some performance footage thrown in as well. I hope you enjoy it.

Another GREAT video for us techno geeks!

I see Todd made a cameo appearance, but none from your Employee of the Month eh? :laugh2:

I’ve used Dean Markley Strings since the early ‘70s; couldn’t even pathum a guess as to how many sets I used were wound on those machines.

Looking forward to tomorrow’s “Ask ThroBak Thursdays” video!
