INSTRUCTIONS
THE WEE PEGGY SPINNING WHEEL
Tools Required:
Hammer, screwdriver and candlewax for
the wood screws, joints and treadle rail pins.
Finishing the Wood:
The wood has been sealed with
Danish Oil. This protects the kiln dried wood from climatic
changes and enhances its beauty. To further enhance the
wood use either the Ashford Wax Finish or furniture polish.

Please read these instructions right
through before commencing.
Hardware:
1. Attach the treadle board
to the treadle rail with 2
x 1¼" (30mm) screws.

the metal pins in the ends of
the treadle rail.
Note:
Candlewax rubbed
onto the metal pins will make
treadling easier.
