What electric did you get? I was looking at the BABE electric spinner myself.

Kimberly,
It is from Babes fiber garden, the JK model, I got it from ebay, but the price was only a little less than from Babes. The only problem with it is I had to add more drag on the flyer to get it to take up with out overtwisting. I used some string trimmer line and a couple of rubberbands to adjust it.
As far as production though, wow, it is great. I can put my feet up and use the foot control like a thighmaster!

Ha! Great minds and all that. I think I am seriously going to look into that after the move. Also, where do you mind sharing where you got your white roving from?

Holly,
It increased my production quite a bit, but I know what you mean, I am selling one wheel as this really replaces it. I am getting to old to treadle for hours on end. LOL
