  • What a nice production!

  • Thank you. I can literally say that it took years of work. I did the film, using my father's 16mm camera, when I was still in college. Then a year ago last Christmas my son gave me Ulead to make videos. My family had put Dad's 16mm on video and a few months ago I made a DVD of the tape then pieced this together. I really like making little videos like this.

  • people who think spinning is for girls are sorrowfully mistaken, who do you think invented the darn machines a woman? Not that they are physically incapable which they are not, but back in the day it was the men who worked with wood working tools metal smiting, it was the men who understood gear ratios and geometry, it was the men who understood physics. I think men of today should get off their asses and grow a few bushels of cotton and learn this skill you never know if your going to need it.

  • Thanks. It's unusual to see spinning done by a man in a business suit. You did very nicely with the video editing, too.

  • The cerdits were better than the film.
