You are the MacGyver of spinning lol.

You can make an even better version by using two CDs for the whorl instead of cardboard.

Thanks so much! This is great in a "spinning emergency" you know, we spinners are quite resourceful. I had not yet seen a spindle like yours! You might want to take the cardboard and coat with an archival art coating, for cardboard is acidic. Golden makes both gloss and matte coatings you can brush on, and it would make the cardboard firmer to last longer. I drop my spindle sometimes and it makes it stronger.

thanks for this, you spin GREAT,

Great idea! Even simpler than the cd spindles, and it obviously spins very well!
