Folding up your Spinning Wheel
Joy carry bag
(Optional)
Always carry it by the built
in handle or in the optional
carry bag. Do not carry it by
the flyer which could bend
if handled
roughly.
Ratio
Position the stretchy drive
cord around the smallest
grove in the wheel and then
over the largest flyer whorl.
This gives a flyer to wheel
ratio of 6:1. The other ratios
are 8, 11 & 14:1. When
changing ratios ensure the
drive cord directly aligns
the wheel and flyer whorl.
When spinning coarse
fibres or thick yarns use the
slowest flyer speed of 6:1.
For fine fibres and yarns
use a higher ratio.
