Who do you buy your spinning supplies from? Care to share?
I am looking at purchasing from http://www.woolery.com
They seem to have a good selection of everything and prices are comparable and even better than ebay.
Figure I'm gonna buy a spindle and a pound of wool tomorrow.
I am thinking of something easy to spin in the 3 to 5 inch range. Figure that will be a good start towards spinning the angora I produce.
I also plan to make a navajo spindle because they are really cool looking. I read that if you get a large wooden craft wheel with the hole already drilled in the middle and find the right size dowel to fit the hole, you can easily make a spindle. I just need to then finish the ends of the dowel after cutting it to length. I cant imagine it would be that hard to taper and sand the ends. :?
