There is nothing more irritating than opening a tin of bobbins and finding that they have tangled themselves up with each other by the threads. They do it all by themselves during the night when the lid is on just to annoy you next morning. An easy way to scotch them is to go to the kitchen and find some of those covered wire fasteners that come with a packet of food bags, and wrap fasteners around each bobbin to keep the end of the thread in place.
It works just as well on long bobbins too.
