As the one at the machine fills I swap it with the now pretty empty one at the cutting board. Not sure if this really counts as a gadget but it certainly is a favourite.

It stays right next to the sewing machine so that with every bobbin change, I eliminate all of those dust bunnies that want to multiply.
