The Rotary Sheep Reducer

This was posted to another list that I am on, I hope folks don't mind the cross-posting.  I have seen a steampunk-ed Babe Spinning wheel here on the list so I thought folks would appreciate this one:

Okay, as a spinner, I love this!

[kosaginolegion]

Me too. I don't think I'd quite dare punk my wheel, but that's partly because I'm not yet good enough.

*wonders what roving would be best for spinning brass.*

That's awesome! I've been contemplating my first wheel, and I may have to mod it when I get it!

Are you sure that's a Babe? I thought they built theirs out of PVC, not wood. It looks much more like a Hitchiker to me, though there may be other similarly formatted wheels.

Edited to add the link to pictures of Babe wheels.

Nope this one is not a babe - I have an electric one - just the third modded spinning wheel I've seen. :0)

I thought of my mom when I saw this :)

I wonder whether shell get angry if I turn her Majacraft into a steampunk machine... hmmm...

That's definately a hitchhiker wheel, but very cool.
