Bosworth mini spindle

I bought a Bosworth mini spindle from the Journey Wheel site.  Bird's eye maple is my idea of nice stuff.

I could have gone for a featherweight spindle but to my mind the profile of the mini's design has more depth, more of the classic Bossie look.

I went for the new 9 inch length.  The previous shorter standard length was what kept me from buying before now.

This is the first spindle I've owned that is signed by the maker.

The spindle's function is as good as its form.
