Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A very short encyclopedia entry defining 'reel' as a machine used for reeling, and 'reeling' as winding thread, silk, cotton or similar fibers into a skein or onto a bottom to prevent tangling. It also notes that reeling is used to fill or empty bobbins and quills for manufacturing various stuffs. The entry only states that reels and methods vary, without describing specific designs.
