Super Jumbo Wheel Videos
The Country Spinner is the manual version of the Super Jumbo E-Spinner. I loved watching these videos when I was learning to spin, Steph is amazing!

Thick and Low Twist Yarn
I’m going to let you in on a little secret. I have been spinning for a little over 5 years and have never once spun on a traditional spinning wheel with treadles. I’m sharing with you my favourite spinning methods on an e-spinner to create thick and low-twist yarns. These types of yarns are wonderful to incorporate into your fibre art as they are quick to weave up due to their thickness and they create beautiful texture as well.
Bamboo Fibre
I had a lovely customer of mine named Jane ask about spinning bamboo and I thought I'd experiment and do a blog post for others who may be interested as well.Â
Bamboo fibre compared to wool is much silkier, softer and lighter. I would consider this to be a more intermediate to advanced fibre to spin on it's own due to its slippery, silky nature. The staple length is approximately 10cm long.Â

Hello there. I just bought a super jumbo spinner from you.
I have been spinning for 40 years on a louet wheel with great success.
I feel that even the maximum speed is lower than what I normally spin. Putting the belt on the smallest pulley helps a bit. The e spinner is quoted at 500 rpm max, e spinner3 is up to 1800 rpm. Can the electronics be adjusted for higher speed internally or is there a way to increase the speed past the maximum? Thanks for your help
