Also included with each Schacht Spinning Wheel are: its own adjustable carrying strap, two drive bands, a threading hook, a lazy Kate, and four bobbins. If you are looking for the Spinning Wheel equivalent of a Cadillac you're in the market for a Schacht. Matchless, that is.
This wheel also has nice large bobbins that are great for spinning fine to slubby and beyond. They aren't as huge as say a lendrum jumbo bobbin but these are regular bobbins that just happen to be large. They work great with the wheel and the wheel does have lace bobbins available for those fine spinners who just get stuck on lace and never want to go back. I'm in this category unfortunately because I'm always pressed for time and thicker yarn spins and knits faster. Oh well can't have everything I guess. Well with this wheel you get about as close to everything as you can get. It is still portable no its not the most portable wheel on the market but it is reasonable to take to meetings and the design sacrifices nothing for its portability. It is apparent that Schacht was focused on making a precision wheel here and if you can afford this wheel buy it you won't be sorry.
