Review: Spins Beautifully, not a good choice for first spindle - First and foremost this spindle is GORGEOUS and handles beautifully. It spins for ages (That's taken a little getting used to! I can spin almost all the way to the floor on a single flick!) and, though it is is a little heavier than my beginning spindle, I'm spinning very fine, soft, merino-and-silk mix on it just fine at lace weight. It's a joy to use and to look at (even my spouse thinks it's gorgeous!). The downside (and this may have been specific to my spindle, so take with a grain of salt!) is that when I accidentally dropped it about an inch of the tip snapped off. Now, that particular spot had a bit of a burl in it, so, again, it may have just been bad luck for me. However, I'd not recommend this as your first spindle as a result, especially if you're still dropping it a lot (Alas, that was one of only two times I've dropped it!). Even with the tip gone it still spins gorgeously, just won't really work supported now. But who cares! I was spinning with it this morning. I will absolutely buy another sometime soon! Worth the price for sure. Review: Beautiful Wood and Perfect Weight - I bought some other, more expensive spindles and this one is genuinely my favorite. It's got a nice weight that works the fiber without being too heavy to use for longer periods of time, it's nicely balanced so it spins with very little work, has a beautiful finish to the wood that doesn't catch the fiber, the hook has the perfect curve for holding the fiber when spinning, it's great for drop and supported spinning. The only thing I would love with it would be a spinning base for support spinning. I found a small glass bowl that works, but it's not the ideal design to work with this spindle. Other than that, it's perfect and I recommend it for anyone wanting to have a quality spindle for long-term spinning. ## Features - Hand carved from beautifully turned Rosewood, the Revolution Fibers Top Whorl Drop Spindle is an essential tool that can turn an evening by the fire (or by the TV) into a productive yarn making session.

This plastic piece is just a cap to protect the brass hook during travel and is not used during spinning. : ) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Spins Beautifully, not a good choice for first spindle *by A***Y on September 21, 2023* First and foremost this spindle is GORGEOUS and handles beautifully.
