Rainbow Kaleidoscope Drop Spindle No.227 - TOP WHORL - Rainbow Stainless Filigree Pendant, Silver, Rainbow Crystals, and Acrylic Whorl with Alloy Weight Ring
- Price includes free-shipping (US only) - PLEASE NOTE: Rainbow Pendant color varies slightly
- WEIGHT/DIMENSIONS: Weight: 1.0oz (31g), Whorl: Acrylic/Alloy .3” x 1.74” (8mm x 44mm), SHAFT: the Smaller of the two that I make at .106" (2.7mm) diameter x 8" (20.3cm) length in Hi-Gloss Sun Yellow
Made from a total of 49 individual pieces, this special design incorporates a 1/8" thick acrylic disc that has a groove milled into the bottom surface with a chrome plated alloy ring mounted into it that acts to add weight toward the rim of the whorl for a well balanced and longer spin. The whorl is adorned with a rainbow color ion coated stainless steel filigree pendant mounted onto the surface - along with two silver plated 6-petal bead caps, three multi-crystal bead spacers, 30 rainbow color Preciosa Czech crystal rhinestones, a stainless steel taper spring, and silver plated and stainless steel finding all mounted to a hi-gloss sun yellow colored steel shaft. The shaft is made of high-carbon/spring steel with a heat forged hook, and it is coated with an industrial quality 2-part (color/gloss) powder coat paint. All components are assembled with an industrial quality 2-part epoxy resin for long life
This is an amazing and versatile lighter weight top whorl drop spindle that has a fast spin and good rim weight to handle a wide range of fine fibers.
