the throughput of a 3 drive array will be more than one big drive and match up well for bonded 2.5 #spindles #mtbf

Beautiful salvaged, wood turning blanks from Central America strip forestry via Forgotten Woods LLC. Had for 10 yrs, giving me the itch. #spindles #woodworking #woodturning #salvage

Test-spinning a cable yarn (which is plying two or more plied yarns together), a 2x2 formation for this one. Might go back to the drawing board for the colour distribution of a couple of the singles. Taking a progress photo and realizing belatedly... Having strong colour/aesthetic opinions really mean you keep accidentally matching. The bottom pattern is from my night caftan ie my lap. Yeesh, lol. #handspinner #handspinning #handspun #YarnSpinner #YarnSpinning #handmade #knitting #spindles

In which I am as brief as possible, speaking to one of my biggest peeves — a peeve so big I once wrote an entire book about it

Watch and be amazed I only took 81 seconds.

Gifts from recent trip. Book on natural dyes, courtesy of the author. Two new spindles. Large one is from the highlands of Peru, unsure where. Smaller has a ceramic whorl and is said to be Shipibo.

My new (old) Bulgarian #spindles arrived! This is will be my first time in a while to do supported spinning on pure wood ones - usually I prefer those with a metal tip, for better wear. I got these off of Etsy - with where I'm located, sourcing this sort of thing is still best done there. I thought I was fully sorted on my spindle collection and then... of course I lost one. 2nd pic: my current in-progress. Yes, I'm back on fine lace spinning! #HandSpinning #YarnSpinning #SpindleSpinning #FiberArts

Our study utilizes a unique dataset of simultaneous human and cortical recordings to investigate the relationship between epileptic activity and two of the cardinal sleep oscillations – slow oscillations (0.5 – 2 Hz) and #spindles (9-16 Hz) – generated in the thalamus.

Previous reports suggested that #facial #muscles lack muscle #spindles (that provide info on muscle length & contraction velocity) but this study https://anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ar.25172 shows human facial muscles contain muscle spindles - Study predicted that humans would have the greatest number, given the role our lips play in speech. But humans & other primates had the lowest number - like it that the findings went against the authors' hypothesis - but what is going on?

Crocheted some donuts filled with chickpeas to serve as bottom whorls for DIY #spindles. Testing this weekend. At least they won't break like my previous attempt with polymer clay.
