I like some brands of thread, but not the spool the thread is packaged on. That is why I save the empty spools that I perfer and transfer other brands of thread to the empty spools I save.

I place the full spool in the bobbin, and using a wood dowel segment (Tapered) in my cordless drill, I transfer the thread to the replacement spool.

You can also transfer the thread to a different spool, using a sewing machine bobbin winder.

Down in the meadow in a little bitty pool
Swam three little fishies and a mama fishie too
"Swim" said the mama fishie, "Swim if you can"
And they swam and they swam all over the dam
