Kromski
Symphony unfinished - $550, finished - clear, walnut or mahogany $650
This wheel has the details spinners have come to expect with Kromski products - lots of finely turned wood,
attention to detail, and all the features spinners ask for. Start with a good size wheel diameter - 24" - that rotates
on bearing sleeves that contribute to effortless treadling. The double treadles are well engineered to be
comfortable through long spinning sessions. The flyer is double drive but also has Scotch tensioning for single

popular bands- and they fit on all the other Kromski wheels if you start a collection.

pegs and the very helpful “Warp Helper”. The Kromski Tote, extra heddles, extra heddle blocks (for more
