Well, I finished my second charkha today. One thing I had to do was remove
the hinges and replace them, as the ones I used just weren't doing the job.
So I pulled out the screws, taped the two halves of the box together, taped
the new hinges down where I wanted them. Screwed everything together,
presto!

Opened the box and discovered I had hinged the wrong side -- I've got a
charkha for a leftie! It cranks with the left hand and drafts with the
right. I *can* draft out of my right hand but this is just awkward!

Methinks I'll be having a special doorprize for the fiber party on
Saturday -- lefties only need drop their name in THIS hat, however *lol*

The kind of wheel that Ghandi spun cotton on - an accellerated wheel, small
and portable unlike a walking wheel
