Wonder Weaver

Anyone own a Wonder Weaver? I was wondering what the diameter of the wheels are. They look to be about 6"?

Thanks.

You'd be pretty close but I seem to recall they're a bit larger than that. There were two versions and one may be a little smaller than the other.

I just measured mine. I have the 3 wheel model. The wheels measure 3.8" + or - .010.

Thank you. I was thinking about that diameter. I am trying to build a clone, and at 4 nches using two degree increments, that puts the thread lines less than .1 inches apart. That is a little difficult to cut. At 6" the lines are .1 inch and are easier to handle. But 6" in diameter is pretty large. I may have to develop a better way to cut the thread holder.

Thanks.

John

There's a pretty good YOUTUBE video on line if you are interested - query "wonder weaver" & it should come up. Not a simple task
