a DT Pinkie Babe wheel for $175 with extras - $10 shipping! 3 JUMBO bobbins, delta flyer...this would make an awesome art yarn maker!

I am not a fan of PVC but this is a super cheap way of getting into wheel spinning with a reputable company's wheel. Frazzlehead started with a Babe and I know vendors who use them every weekend.

PVC can be painted and bedazzled and glittered and sponged and whatever it takes to make it more appealing - some folks even love the "industrial" steam punk look of the plastic and connectors. I have spun on one - they are cheap, they are wobbly, but they will spin yarn!

Some drop spindles cost this much - just thought I'd pass this info on!
