Flyers for Jumbo Flyer Kits for the Double Drive Kromski Wheels
Jumbo Flyer - extend the capabilities of your Kromski Polonaise, Symphony or Minstrel wheel by adding a Jumbo Flyer Kit. You can quickly swap out your regular flyer for the jumbo unit (and back again). Here are the benefits: flyer with very large orifice .70 inch opening for heavy spinning and plying; much larger jumbo bobbin - holds 50 cubic inches of yarn; lower ratio ranges - 2 speeds - to give you excellent speed choices without changing flyer. For the Polonaise and Symphony wheels the ratios are: 5 and 7.2:1; for the Minstrel the ratios are: 4 and 5.3:1
Note: parts shown will vary based on your wheel model.
MINSTREL NOTE: if you already own a Minstrel and want to add a Jumbo Kit, you must first determine the manner in which your front maiden post has been installed on your wheel. If you do not have the current set-up - brass knurled nut and bolt going up through the base into the maiden (picture above on right)- you will need to do some simple woodworking to facilitate the jumbo option. Watch video to see how to do this. Should take about 5 minutes to do.
When ordering your Minstrel Jumbo Kit you will need to select the "style" of your front maiden. Maiden picture is the "new" style.
Manufacturer: Kromski
Manufacturer Description: It was in 2000 that the first Kromski spinning wheels arrived in North America from Poland - a container load of Mazurka and Polonaise wheels first introduced at Convergence. Of course the history of the Kromskis, woodworking and spinning wheels began long before the 21st century.
