The nearest shop that has a drop spindle is over an hour away. They have
three bottom whorl spindles 1.3 oz., 3.3 oz., and 3.7 oz. I ended up
ordering on-line (Ashford 3 oz., bottom whorl). Probably will be another
week before it gets here.

I'm sure I'll have questions soon;-)

Ya' just never know where the garden path will lead, do ya?

Yer becoming quite the Renaissance Man. Robert Heinlein would be more
than pleased with you!

Given time, I might be. Given time. Hate to stop on this ball or yarn
now;-)

LOL. Did ya' ever imagine geezerhood to look like this?

The mental image is.........priceless!

Good on ya', mate, good on ya'!

"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion,
butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance
accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders,
give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new
problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight
efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."

And be able to enjoy good wine, good food, and a good conversation (or a
satisfactory patchwork of lies) and to know when to shut up while
watching a sunset.
