Definitely someone who has done this for hours. I really felt you mastered the technique. Thank you 😊 I have watched a few videos and this one was most informative with tips.
Oh yeah I was just marveling at how he never broke the original string mine comes apart constantly 😂 it takes a lot of practice to get this good, he makes it look really easy.
Still the best. Especially teaching nostepinne wrapping. Just wrote a short information paragraph for our newsletter, and added your address on UA-cam. And I really liked storing and rewrapping for neatness and efficiency. Thanks a million!!
Clear explanation and demonstration. My Dealgan arrived yesterday, and my attempt to spin last night was failure even though I watched another's UA-cam demonstration twice prior. Between this one of yours and another video of drafting of the fiber, I think this evening when I get home I will be able to do better. Excited to try!
Im new to spinning! And I bought my first dealgan at a fiber festival I went to with my aunt. I'm excited to learn and figure it out so I can easily spin my own yarn. You make it look so easy
You're the Best! Great explanation on how to do the spinning, attaching, making a leader, winding on as for nostepinne, and reasons for whatever. Loving this video!! Thank you!!
Great demo! I see the improvements you have made since this one - seemingly small details, but a purposeful evolution. This spindle is great because you can use it anywhere, sitting, standing, even in small places - you can treat it like a support spindle by sticking it under your arm while you draft.
I've watched many drop spindle tutorials, this is the first spindle that makes sense to me. I see in the comments mention of a new design and perhaps a tutorial for it, I will take a look. Thank you for sharing your art.
Dude, you make it look easy. I just started spinning about 2 years ago on a wheel. I have several hand spindles and just made a Dealgan, from a bottle brush tree limb. I'll take some pics when I get it all sanded nice. Joe
Great to see a man spinning, especially while wearing a macho "this guy needs a beer" shirt! Is there any particular advantage to the dealgan, over other drop spindles? I'm finding it really fiddly, having to half hitch the yarn every three or four feet, and sometimes it pops out of the half hitch. I'm used to spinning on a drop spindle, supported spindle, and wheel. I don't know if it is just that I am new to this tool, but it isn't going smoothly at all!
This is so informative & exactly what I need to use the new spindle I ordered from you. Thanks for making such a helpful video. I have just one question: have you ever tried plying on the fly on this kind of spindle? In any case thanks for this information.
The last full cop was 3.8oz not sure if this link will work but worth a try facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10208539134748251&set=pcb.1265770503448023&type=3
How old are jellybeans/dealghans? What's the first archaeological evidence of them being used, do you know?? I could Google it for myself, of course... Nice tool, good demo, thanks for your videos :-) K

The gently ticking clock and your voice are very relaxing for learning also, your explanations are very easy to follow ! thank you !

A lovely Snyder spindle arrived yesterday -- looking forward to using this. Thank you.
Thanks for the 2nd cop trick. That makes way more sense now

What a unique spindle. You are a very good teacher.

You make it look so easy! I'm just learning to use a drop spindle, and I love this style of spindle. Thanks!
Thank you! I really appreciate the winding into ball instead of squash shape! lol
This is absolutely beautiful. Will be using this when my dealgan comes in!
I am thrilled to see this spindle video!! I bought one before you cut the notches.
Excellent tutorial! Good idea about the temporary cop as when support spinning!
Thank you for this video. I also want to know what fiber you're using. The drafting looks amazing!
This sooooo cool. Can you get one that spins cotton
Thank you so much for your excellent instruction!! Very much appreciate it.
Thank you for the demo.
Good teaching - clear visual. Thank you so much! I am subscribing.
I just got my dealagan. Your videos are So Helpful. Do you make wood Mayan/paddle spindles?
Do you by chance have any sources for the history of this spindle?
Also, love your spindles.
Please, how do you ply? I am a complete newbie to my dealgan in N. Ireland
Awesome! I'm ordering one of these from you. Thank you for the tutorial!
anxiously awaiting my order!!!!!!

Thanks for the answer. I'll let you know if I figure it out.
Great demo. Now I want one! Gahhh!!
Great video! I was wondering how big of a cob you can have on the spindle?

My dealgan does not have a cross at the bottom. Any suggestions?
I’d use 2 half hitches to hold the single. It’ll take the weights off the cop.
Very informative! Thank you!
So helpful!
Thanks
Good tips!
I couldn’t find one in your store. Do you still sell them?
They sold out, I’m working on a batch and they should be in the store on Wednesday
Looked on your etsy shop but cant found a Scottish spindle. Any suggestions?
making more today :)
