Wrap reel manufactured at Valley Worsted Mill and possibly used in the laboratory. "Wrap reels were used to check the yarn count in a spinning mill. A set length of yarn was wound off several test bobbins and weighed, if the weight was not the correct amount expected the spinning machines draft could be re calculated and the machine draft wheel ( cog ) changed to achieve the required count". - Greg AldridgeA small hand operated wrap reel. The reel is on a wooden base, the winding mechanism is metal and turned by a wooden handle. There is a metal plaque on the base inscribed MAKERS VWM. A wood and metal yarn feeder has broken off its mount.MAKERS/ VWMtextile machinery textile production weaving, valley worsted mill valley worsted mill, warping machinery, textile machinery, textile production, weaving, wrap reel, skein winder
