the dropped spindle

Here's one I made earlier!













This is the hardware which goes with the wooden parts of the spinning wheel in an earlier photo.
When you add the two together, you get this.


















I thought a coloured wheel would look good, and painted it blue.... and then a different blue.... and then bitter chocolate brown, and finally black.



















And then I got some silver paint and painted calligraphy around it.
When it spins the silver becomes a solid whirl, which shimmers as it spins.
