Ashford Lesson

A quick less on tension setting for the Ashford Traditional Scotch Tension Wheel. This wheel has a double whorl flyer. Some of the earlier Traditional Scotch Tension Wheels come with a singe whorl flyer. I have one of each. Anyway, this is a quick lesson on setting tension and why you would should use light tension. Super light tension just enough to get things moving can allow you to spin super super thin lace without breaking. The proper tension should be very light. Not everyone does it as light as I do. I set both the main drive and the bobbin tension. Suggestions or questions are very welcome.
PS: Sorry about the scratchy audio. I used the wrong cover for the microphone and it caused that scratchy noise. Next one will be better. I promise. :)

This is great. I wish I'd seen this when I was very first starting.
