The Fibre Garden : Lendrum Spinning Wheels
Showing all 4 results
Gord Lendrum has been building these very popular wheels since 1976, from his workshop in Odessa, Ontario. Spinners all over Canada and the US adore their Lendrum wheels! We’ve just become Dealers for these as of August, 2019. Gord does not regularly take on new Dealers so we are grateful to finally be able to offer these to spinners.
Lendrum started with a Single Treadle wheel and over the years began production of the more popular Double Treadle style. There is also a Saxony style wheel he produces from time-to-time.
These wheels are simple to use, with a Scotch Tension system. Accessories are available for spinning pretty much any style of yarn or type of fibre a spinner would ever want to spin.
We are starting out by carrying and listing the Double Treadle wheels, and will add to the last by request and as our inventory grows.

Lendrum's Saxony Wheel is customized to your specifications. It is a double-treadle wheel in the traditional style. We don't have a photo but a quick Google search will turn up several images for you to view. This wheel features a large 28-inch diameter drive wheel.
What you need to select:
- WOOD: choose from (real) cherry or maple, Walnut is also available but has its own product listing. Please note: the wood is unfinished so that you can finish it in exactly the way that you want.
- DRIVE: choose either double-drive or single-drive (Scotch tension). Double drive includes a tension knob in case you want to convert your wheel to single drive.
- FLYER: choose to have your flyer on the left or on the right. Gord suggests that the flyer position should be based on which of your hands is closest to the orifice as you spin. If your left hand is the forward hand, choose the flyer on the left. If your forward hand is on the right, choose the flyer on the right.
