My first spinner was a RickShaw Spinner, and I managed to figure it out fairly quick. The drop spindle is another matter. Never could get the hang of that, but the wheel was the end all for me. Changed my whole life, and there's no turning back now. :) I see there will be many fun new projects to share in your future. Can't wait to see them all. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3398142838267674947.post-81854969135742765792011-05-16T08:21:43.139-04:002011-05-16T08:21:43.139-04:00Oh YES!
