Yarn Guide Placement on the Fiber Artist Supply Jumbo Yarn Ball Winder

This video will show users how to properly place the yarn guide and why it's important to do so.

You're absolutely right about this. I had the guide too far back and facing the wrong direction and my results were less than I'd hoped. The yarn was bunching up under the cake on the spindle. When I followed your directions, my yarn cakes became more consistent. Thank.you. I bought this winder from your company some years ago and I love it, I keep you video so I can remember to do this to get best results.

I bought one of these a couple of years ago - love it!! Beautifully made, excellent craftsmanship, extremely good quality. A tool that I hope will become an heirloom piece in years to come

OK, nice tool! Nice clear narration! Great explanations! But "Move your arm!" LOL In both this supplemental video and in the main video, you manage to put your left arm right between the camera and the action, obscuring what we all want to see. I had to bite my tongue to keep from shouting at the screen, "Move your arm!"

Apparently Strauch ball winders (similar-looking construction, but more expensive) have similar issues, as they have a couple of videos with suggestions for troubleshooting winding slippery yarns. Don't know if the yarn guide on those is adjustable like that on yours, though; I remember the one video had the fellow from Strauch improvising a closer-in "yarn guide" with his fingers.

Can this machine be used for spinning threads or some thing else??

[@yarnpower]

One question. Does the circular platform below the yarn ball spin or does it just turn as a unit with the wooden base below it?

[@fiberartistsupplyco]

yarnpower it spins slowly as the yarn ball is wound

[@cjamesc294]

How much for that
