Schacht Sidekick Folding Spinning Wheel

The Sidekick is designed to fold easily, yet be a solid spinner. Make friends with it and it will follow you everywhere.

Available in a standard package or stripped-down, without the flyer, bobbins, or whorls -- the latter option is useful if you already own a Schacht Matchless or Ladybug and don't need those parts.

Schacht Sidekick Features:

• Folds to 21.5″ h x 8.25″ w x 15″ d and weighs 13 pounds
• Integrated storage of bobbins, flyer, and whorls for transport
• 13.7″ drive wheel
• Ratios from 4:1 to 13:1
• Long, comfortable treadles
• Uses the same bobbins, whorls, and flyer as the Schacht Matchless and Ladybug wheels
• 25″ orifice height for comfortable spinning.
• Employs Scotch tension with precise control knob.
• Drive wheel spins on ball bearings; flyer turns on self-aligning bearings.
• Drive band tension adjuster allows for all whorls to be used with one drive band.
• Includes 3 travel bobbins, fast and medium whorls, threading hook, and adjustable carrying strap.
