5 out of 5 starsI'm a spinner with years of experience, but when I saw these 3D-printed spindles, I just had to have one because...well, because they're cute. Jen spent a lot of time going back-and-forth with me until we hit on a combination of colours which suited me, showing far more patience than I would have expected, given the price of the spindle. Once I'd made up my mind, she shipped immediately and I had the spindle in hand within a few days. The proportion of width, length and weight ensures that it spins much better than I'd expected from a plastic spindle.

5 out of 5 starsI recieved my spindle super fast! I asked purple and orange arms and a blue shaft in order to resemble my favorite west TX sunsets. The caveat was that of she felt so inclined and the blue didn't fit well, the shaft was ultimately dealers choice. She did NOT disappoint- it isn't blue, but a purple and orange/gold swirl. It's beautiful! I will absolutely purchase again. It's very lightweight but wonderfully balanced. I (still a novice at spinning) couldn't figure out the fiber sent with it, but I have other fiber that spins like butter on it. Wonderful litte spindle, much loved. Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsI love this so much. I knew I would, but it just is the best thing. It's light, fits in the smallest pocket of my knitting bag, and spins like a dream on lunchbreaks. I might get another. I own five drop spindles and a schacht wheel, and my two turtlemade spindles are my absolute favorites and go-to fiber tools. The shipping speed and comfort of the tools in great. The seller communication was great, too.

5 out of 5 starsLove this replacement shaft more than my original one. I adore my candy apple gray drop spindle and have enjoyed it for many years. New shaft works great, super speedy shipping. Thanks!
