Yes I know. I also know that it would be hard to look up the maker of something if you don't even know what it is.

Thanks. I couldn't seem to find anything on them because I got the name wrong. So, thank you for enlightening me on the name.

What is a sewing wheel, and what would you do with them? What you have are pictures of spinning wheels, and they were often made by local craftsman, with no brand name.
