Thanks
It did Johno she got me a bigger shed :D :) thats part of reason for late reply been buys packing as shed comes with new abode as well.
You are right they do break if dropped, man handled and abused. I have had to repair other ladies flyers in the past. The reason for design is keeping it original I had discussed with LOML making a 3 part type like she has on her Wee Peggy :whip: she's a hard taskmaster/mistress.

The Ashfords spinning wheel factory is just down the road and I am sure you could buy a kitset and I could send the pieces one by one which you could proudly produce from your workshop at appropriate intervals!
BTW, we go in there some times as they have a very nice cafe at the place and I am always intrigued at the variety of little machines required to convert fleece into jumpers.
