So jealous, still can’t get a stitch made on mine

Cant get it to wind the leader :/...

My three roving are now split out and I'm headed off to my carder. Happy spinning!

Hi! Did you use plans to build this or did you create it yourself? 😊

Wow thats like a cobweb lace, thats amazing well done xx❤

Thanks Vampy

That doesn't look like cotton to me. It's looks like wool.

The cotton I’m using won’t let me draft out that long. Well, it’s very possible it’s something I’m doing and not the cotton. So, you long draw and with the other hand are you just feeling the twist or what exactly are you doing the the hand closed to the nano? Are you getting a smooth cotton in the end?

Is there a video which explains to a novice how to feed the spun yarn into the orifice? I just discovered, by reading the Ravelry troubleshooting posts, that the Nano does not take the spun yarn from me but I should maintain tension for spinning and then feed it in? I have had the Nano since October and have tried every tension band fix and yet still haven't spun successfully. I've just discovered that take-up tension refers to winding onto the spool, not taking up the spun yarn. (I have learned to drop spin during this time, however.)

Thankyou

Thank you for showing this! As a newbie spinner with a love for lace knitting, I naturally lean towards very fine yarns… and am learning to spin it. So far, I’m managing lace weight 2-ply merino either on my supported spindle or on my brand spanking new EEW Nano2 and am working on consistency. It’s starting to come along. I’ve already got my first knitting pattern picked out. It’s an Estonian lace pattern and I’m hoping the nupps will help to hide the inconsistencies of my first efforts after my first mini-skein that I’m literally framing because I’m so proud of it. Spinning is new to me. Due to a spinal injury that’s leaving me with permanent nerve damage, I’ve had to take a break from lace knitting as I couldn’t sit in one position for long enough to finish at least one row of a knitting chart. A friend suggested spinning, as both the drop spindle and supported spindle would enable me to shift to standing or to different sitting positions more easily and I’d still keep a link to fibre arts. Now that I’m having more better days, I can knit again although for short periods of time only. So I alternate with spinning to keep me sane. It's fast becoming my happy place. Videos like yours help a lot when I can't spin, need information or need a break. Thank you!

A very-very good video, many thanks for it. You answered many of my questions, as a beginner in spinning. I have a nano newly and struggled very much with holding, pulling the fibre, adjusting tension and speed, until complete desparation. You explain it so wonderful detailed, that it is very useful for me. I am happy, that yt brought your video!

Is it possible to get those 3D foamcore inserts to fit Daedalus shafts?

So helpful to watch and get the basics of spinning on an electric wheel down. Thank you!

Thank you for your video! I just bought the Nano2… my first ever spinning wheel. I am used to supported spinning (lace and cobweb) and thought the Nano2 is perfect for me. My mother felt like an outing, there was a crafts fair this past Friday, I took her there (we.re both yarn addicts). Whilst drooling over yarns I spied a stand with beautiful combed top… and they were also selling the EEW 6 and the Nano2. No extra shipping if I bought it then and there. Got 100 grams of gorgeous Norwegian natural white combed top as a free gift as well. Can’t wait to try it out! I’m waiting to unbox it just in case my SO decides to give that sweet little Nano2 as a Christmas present… he might want for me to wait until the 25th of December to do so (hope not!). If he wants to give me something else that box ‘ll be flying off in no time though. 😇 In the mean time I’m bingeing on videos. 😂

Thank you i was so worried when i started using mine today (just arrived) and it started slipping! The thread hack worked pretty good, may need to invest in some super glue later tho. I think a D shaped shaft and hole for the pully would make this a non problem btw. There are many small motors out there that use the d shape to keep this from happening.

Awesome. When I did shorter cones I just put a piece of tape on the drum instead of those card things you did. Not saying my solution is better, just different if people are looking to try something else.

Thanks so much,

Thank you for making this video. I have lots of these tub3s and a 3d printer so I will be trying this out! Looking forward to receiving my cone winder.

Thank you!!! ☺️☺️

Looks awesome cannot wait to get mine!

Thanks for showing how this combination of the EEW Cone Winder and Swift works!!

Hi Vampy, is the Cone attached to your eWheel 6, or is it separate??? 🎉🎉🎉 Thankyou so much for sharing this video. Hope you have a good weekend ☀️🌞 Take care and stay safe Jen xx

Ok, that is cool!

May I ask how you managed the yarn tension? 🙈

Amazing congratulations 🎉

HELP ME PLEASE -__-

I'M DYING LOL HELP ME I ACCIDENTALLY BOUGHT EGYPTIAN COTTON. I'M DROWNING LOL

HELP ME

Helpful video and I love your cat too! 😸

This video has helped me so much - thank you!

Where did you buy the modified shaft ?

In Maurice’s video about rewinding on the 6 he had to use a rubber band around one end of the bobbin to stop the bearings from turning - how did you get around this? The band doesn’t look very nice and I’m trying to avoid it. I have ordered an extra rod and bearings

Thanks for explaining this l process I’m a new nano2 ewheel user.

cool. .. now i want to see the Rare/rough newts 🦎

Your garden looks awesome! Hiya kitty! I hope the smell will start to go away for you! 🖤🧶🖤

That’s so cool! 🖤🧶🖤

Lol so cute ❤

Have u ever spun bleak hall sea isle cotton. I grow some that is 2-3 in long fiber length

Thanks for this and your video on spinning cobweb weight on the EE6. You've answered my questions - I want an electric wheel with a large capacity bobbin that I can spin extremely fine weight yarns on and most mentions I have seen of this wheel are people spinning worsted weight to bulky yarns. So not my thing, I love spinning cobweb weight silk but my knees can't keep up with the treadling that requires!

You're a good teacher. I've watched your video multiple times and I learn something new each time

My main question is which thread ends up showing at the top of the work? I notice that the shed ends up seperating the 2 sides but sometimes those sides end up showing 2 colors on top, but which one shows in the weave? The close one or the far one?

I just bought one & look forward to using it in the hospital while I recover from brain surgery in Hawaii. Hopefully it arrives on the big island before my surgery

Great video. Can you ply yarn with this machine?

Wow.... ..wow....

I use the boiling water, so that's good. But you using the scissors is way smarter than what I do. Thanks. I use the towel too, and then a paper towel to suck out more moisture.

Hi, Vampy! Thank you for your helpful video. I have recently purchased a new falcon spinning wheel could you please make a video on how to thread leader through and adjust the wheel settings. I am having difficulty. thank you very much. I haven’t used scotch tension wheels before.

I recently got an antique csm. Once parts arrive I can get it working again!

what is this thing

Interesting You should make a longer video starting with the setup for the CSM and ending with the finished product
