- Randy,
- I purchased my first (and only) spinning wheel as a kit. It is an Ashford
- Traveler. It was very easy to put together. It took several days to
- stain, sand and dry but the actual assembly was very simple. I purchased
- mine through one of the local spinning/weaving shops. IUm sure you could,
- too. Or, just call one of the dealers listed in Spin-off. They almost
- always carry the kits.
