The Symphony

by Kromski

The Symphony is another beautifully constructed wheel by the Kromskis.

This wheel has the details spinners have come to expect with Kromski products - lots of finely turned wood, attention to detail, and all the features spinners ask for. Start with a good size wheel diameter - 24" - that rotates on bearing sleeves that contribute to effortless treadling. The double treadles are well engineered to be comfortable through long spinning sessions. The flyer is double drive but also has Scotch tensioning for single drive use (at no additional charge). The bobbins will hold a full 4 oz. package of yarn and they fit on all the other Kromski wheels if you start a collection.

The Symphony is made of European alder and birch. No Kromski wheel has any plastic parts and as such makes the perfect wheel for reenactors. Additional specifications:

    • wheel diameter - 24"
    • orifice height - 27"; size - 3/8"
    • bobbin size - full 4 oz.; 3 included -
    • also includes threading hook, tensioned Kate and bottle of spinning wheel oil
    • Ratios: 7.5, 10, 16 and 20 to 1; 2 whorls included
    • bearings on wheel shaft, bobbins and treadle; leather bearings on flyer
    • weight - 15 lbs.
 

This wheel comes boxed as a kit and requires about an hour to assemble. It is available unfinished or with a factory clear, walnut or mahogany finish that is exceptional (see a sample of the finishes further down this page).
