Ask me about layaway for items in my shop if this would work for you.
I toured the facility where these wonderful, revolutionary wheels are made and could not believe what came out of the box in front of me! These travel wheels are the coolest. I watched them being made, assembled and shipped. Amazing.
All Spinolution wheels are made a furniture grade ply, to resist warping as can be a worry with solid woods in various climates. Because this is ply, there are occasional irregularities in the wheel finish - not at all impacting it's spectacular performance.
The Echo has state of the art engineering in a lightweight, affordable studio wheel design. If you are learning to spin, have a shop, or teach spinning - this is a perfect wheel for your collection.
Simple enough for the novice spinner to learn and grow on and engineered for the most seasoned spinners to enjoy.
As with most of their wheel models, Spinolution offers a great savings on their "Package Deal" which includes all the tools and accessories you need for a complete fiber arts studio. Includes 2 Flyer setups, 3 bobbins each size, orifice hooks & tubes each size, skein winder, and lazy kate):
4oz + 16 oz (Traditional Yarn Package)
4oz Accelerated + 8 oz (Fine Yarn Package)
8oz + 16 oz (Bulky Yarn Package)
16oz + 32 oz (Art Yarn Package)
Choose your model/upgrades from Drop-Down box at upper right.
Due to it's lightweight base, the Echo is not compatible with the 64 oz upgrade, as it would make the wheel top heavy and less balanced. If you would like a larger setup, it is available on the MACH III, Hopper, or Firefly.
The wheels' appearance can differ from what is shown because the Mike, the designer, is always improving on his design.
