FS: Infinity Spinning wheels

$
0
0
 

Please read entire description.

Some of you may remember several years ago my father and I made spinning wheels. Our venture was cut short due to a fire that took my dad’s shop and all of the equipment and supplies that were in it. My dad eventually got back up on his feet, but decided due to his age, not to rebuild the shop. In the process of trying to clear out some things, I am letting go of the remaining wheels that I have.

I have 3 Infinity wheels-Only one of which is for sale at this time as I am trying to obtain the remaining parts to make the other 2 complete. (Once I have, they will be listed as well)

now, here are the issues: The whorl does not “match up” with the big wheel, in that, you can set the drive band to line up with 1 notch, but if you want to change to a different ratio, you will likely need to completely switch out the band. If you are okay with leaving it on one ratio, then it should be fine. (this is what I do with my own infinity wheel) My dad was not as detail oriented as I would have liked towards the end of our venture and had a tendency to rush through the machining of these parts. Each of these wheels only come with one bobbin. If you or someone you know is handy with a lathe, this would be an easy remedy. The wheel is unfinished as well, so would need staining or sealing of some sort.

I do still have the instructions that we were sending out with the wheels. Please be aware though, that these wheels are being sold AS IS. With the understanding that there are issues with them as stated above.

Price is $100. Buyer pays shipping49690738_299648264003223_3659223453707272192_n.jpg


FSOT- Country Craftsman and Ashford Traddy Wheels

New year, and some new resolutions!

Situation: I have 7 beautiful wheels! I love them all dearly, but 7, and my house is quite small!!!
Situation: I have closing in on 100lbs of raw wool to process! This past year I spun/processed 6.25lbs ROFL!!!
Situation: I only have a set of handcards and a set of combs!!!

Solution: I need a drum carder, stat!!! (dear wonderful hubby gave me a wonderful picker for christmas! It’s making a big difference already… )

Soooo therefore, I need to find homes for several wheels. These two are ready to go first, so….. I’m willing to sell outright, would definitely consider time payments, might possibly ship at buyers cost for a very serious buyer, OR WOULD LOVE TO WORK OUT SOME KIND OF TRADE towards a fine cloth type drum carder!!! Or would also be quite interested in trading around for one of my other dream wheels, a CPW, or a complete, working walking wheel. (yeah, I know I’m crazy, but they are so cool!)

Both wheels are located in Tellico Plains, TN, about an hour and 15 minutes from both Knoxville, TN and Chattanooga, TN.

Ashford Traddy single drive wheel $375
Has a few puppy tooth marks from previous owner on the treadle. Comes with lazy kate and 4 bobbins.

Beautiful Country Craftsman wheel with distaff. $350 This is a fine, fast, dependable spinner, with a gorgeous antique look. My CC’s are my favorite all time wheels! However, I seriously don’t need two of every kind of wheel I have, ROFL!!!

This wheel does have a couple of issues, only one of which can affect spinning. The front leather is majorly stretched out and I haven’t had the time to locate someone who can make a new one. This caused her to throw drive bands every so often. I did shim up the front maiden with several wraps of linen type yarn to make up for the height difference and she spins like a dream with no drive band issues. I also reversed the front leather and for now it’s working fantastically until a new leather can be purchased.

The other two issues are merely cosmetic and don’t affect spinning. There is a repair on the drive wheel, but it’s not super noticeable unless you are looking for it. Also one of the cup hooks is crooked, but I just used the other set of hooks and never had any problems.

Still a beautiful girl that is looking for a home where she gets used more than she does here, lol!!!!

Looking for a knitters "dental" tool

Happy New Year !

I am looking for a stainless steel tool, sometimes called a “knitters dental tool,” with a tapestry needle point on one end and a small crochet hook on the other, it is about 6” long. I tried to buy it from Interweave -- they had them on sale -- but was too late.

Sometimes, this is considered an embroidery/needlepoint “laying” tool.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Happy New Year all!

New Year’s Day was a quiet one, and for me, mostly focused on cleaning up my yarn stash, getting projects queued, and then going through my needle stash.

I have several complete sets (5 each) of DPNs that are either duplicates, or that have not been used in a very long time.

I am willing to part with these for the price of shipping + packaging.PayPal only.

Price for one or two sets is $4.50 US, which should cover the cost of shipping US First Class + packaging.

If you would like more (or all!), let me know, and I’ll provide a more accurate shipping cost.

Have any questions? Send me a note!

Thank you for looking!
