Tabachek spindles are well-balanced - they spin fast and for a long time. They
have a silky-smooth finish and are a pleasure to look at, to use and to hold.
Edward adds fine details to the whorls and shafts. He uses small brass hooks which
spinners really like. The whorls have 3 notches and the hook position can be adjusted
easily by the spinner. Before being sold, each spindle is test-spun to ensure
it spins well. Three sizes, available in a variety of woods for whorls & shaft,
will meet all your hand spindle needs.
