This beautifully crafted wheel is from their last production run in 2024, with a huge drive wheel  with 12 spokes mounted on ball bearings for smooth effortless spinning. Horizontal adjustment of the maiden bar allows perfect alignment with the whorl. The maiden bar clamps to the base to eliminate vibration. This Double drive wheel produces a fine, firm-twist yarn particularly suited for fine wools and exotic fibres. One adjustment controls both drive band and bobbin take-up. Easily converted to single drive or bobbin lead. The treadle is pivoted for a comfortable heel-toe action. INCLUDED: horizontal tensioned Lazy Kate with 4 double drive bobbins, threading hook, “Learn To Spin” booklet.

Bobbin capacity: 100g (3 to 4 oz). WEIGHT: 11.3kg (25 Lbs)
