hey bob if you want it real smooth I have some sheet teflon. its like 3 or four inches wide you can make you own washers. It cuts pretty easy with razor blade and its what I gave to Smitty to use under the 4 Oz spools when he was having a problem with them sticking from the weight.The set-up you have is like the 9 carriage set up on the other clemens wrapper I have.This has the spring wire on it also.It was a copy of the renzetti wrapper.If all you need is the wire I have a bunch of real small spreader bars and can give you one that you could make two wires by cutting it in half.I think they are stainless.I was having a problem with the tension devise like the one asked about the other day.Usually I just put in hand held bobbin but I was putting red metallic thread inlay into metallic brown under wrap and I didnt have enough hands. With tension backed way off on the brown It only took a couple of tries to get it to work.
