Anyone interested in a gorgeous? Drudik wheel?? This is #5 made by Mr. McTavish, the man who studied under Magnus Drudik and took over the business before Magnus passed away.? This is the Smaller version and made of Myrtlewood.? The Original owner only spun on it a couple of times.

It was offered to me by an online friend who is now 75 yo and has decided to pare down her herd.? She bought it from the original owner, had her send it directly to McTavish to have it gone over.? He found nothing needing attention. She had him make 3 additional bobbins for it.

When it arrived at her home, she opened the box, looked in to see everything was fine and that’s where it’s been.? Still in the box in her spinning/weaving studio!

She owns a couple of Golding wheels that she uses a lot.? (Those are works of art)? And she’s a big fan of her Hansen.? She owns a weaving studio and still teaches weaving and spinning classes.? Loves Saori weaving.

I’ve always had my heart set on a full-size Drudik in a dark wood.? So I asked her if I could share this with my trusted friends.? She said she’d much rather sell it this way than some public forum.? There is over a 5-year waiting list to get a Drudik wheel.

Pics will follow in a separate post.
