Unfortunately you will have trouble getting it on a normal spool the inside diameter of a faberdashery spool is much larger than a standard spool your looking at about 10 -12 inches. it would just spring open that's if it did not snap trying to wrap it round a standard spool which is about 55mm diameter..
I had a lot of trouble putting fabadashery filament on the ultimaker spools until I tried doing it on a broom handle(running through reel and spool centres), it takes a bit of time but it fits on there and the broom handle keeps it from tangling (it still kind of birds nests but If you gently spin it the opposite way your winding it on it goes back to a manageable reel).

Thanks for the files mate, I will have a go at these over the weekend.
Autodesk always do good stuff, I may have to get tinkercad just to be able to mod .stl files, unless I figure out how to get CREO to do it.
Going out for a few too many beers tonight... so I fear Saturday / sunday is going to be a nice quiet printing weekend haha
