HOW TO MAKE A SPINNING WHEEL

This 1964 German documentary shows in impressive detail how a spinning wheel was made by this craftsman. Each woodturner made his products in his (sometimes her!) own way, and even then the parts were not necessarily interchangeable.
Remember that we do **not** know how this woodturner structured his normal production: he may have may piles of legs and piles of wheels and piles of flyers. This is a documentary, for which he made one spinning wheel. And so he went from start to finish. We are lucky to be able to see and learn from it.
This is an important glimpse into the past.
