<< WM does not work with cocoons. WM works with thread. >>

Yes, I am aware of that. I guess the point I was trying to make didn't come across.

The KBLB transgenic worms create smaller cocoons (than normal). A smaller cocoon will create a smaller amount of fiber (than a normal cocoon). That smaller amount of fiber will mean that less fiber is on a reel. So the reels / spools will contain less fiber. I believe this led to the issue what Warwick had. Warwick's machines probably needed reels that had much more fiber on them.

If you compare images of the KBLB spools to other images on the Internet, you will see that the KBLB spools contain very little thread.

Here is an image of a KBLB reel of fiber:

And here are 2 images of a regular reel of silk fiber:

As you can see, there is a BIG difference in how much thread is on a reel.
