... Bonnee, I have a Minstrel and have traveled with it and do not find a problem with portability except that the legs fall off when I lift the wheel to move...
Narda, I suggest you look at the instructions a second time. I have mine here in front of me, and the references to gluing the legs are as follows: Please do...
I also saw there are more ratios available on the ... I've found that the ratios really don't make much difference on my Sonata. I have a Minstrel and a...
Ref: leaving Kromski legs unglued: One of the reason Kromski suggests leaving legs unglued is if you sell the wheel and have to ship it. It is easier to...
... So while portability is a bonus, the other options like the large bobbin and flyer assembly is the real benefit. ... I do believe The Woolery has a jumbo...
I agree that you don't want to glue the legs in place. The whole reason is to give them room for contraction and expansion. If you find them wobbly, easiest...
Hi everyone and a very Happy 4th of July for those in the states. I am new to this group and just started spinning less than 1 year ago. Right now, I have a...
Hello Spinners- I'm considering either a mazurka or minstrel as an addition to my herd, but I'd like to get the opinion of people who have actually spun on...
Heh. hehehe....HAHAHAHA!!! Oh, are you in for a treat if you get the Maz....I LOVE, ADORE, and worship my Maz. Does anything I ask, fine or coarse, and I...
Thanks, I was hoping to hear that someone loved their mazurka! It is just SUCH a beautiful wheel, and it does look to be very well balanced. I'm keeping tabs...
The only hitch I've had with it is that when I REALLY get going, or have a spinning thing where I am almost fighting the takeup (I spin a lot of webbed angora...
Hi Miki, I have both the Mazurka and the Minstrel! J got the Mazurka first. Had only spun for about 15 min. on a friends 'old' Traddy. Just today the Maz...
I am having the same problem as you. I test drove a Minstrel and it was so easy going. Didn't have a chance to test out a Mazurka yet. I think either would...

Thanks Sharon, it's good to hear from you! I'm glad to find a few others that have more than one (or both) Kromski wheels - Since I already have my Sonata for...
I have a Polonaise, which I love, and my Minstrel, which is my traveling wheel. Both are wonderful wheels. Just wish I had more time to spin! Terri Carlson ...
Thanks Karen, She tuened out wonderfully. A friend who has been borrowing my Ashford Traddy is going to buy it from me. Which is great because I don't think I...
Well, I'm still leaning towards the Mazurka for my "living room" wheel. The beautiful design and small size really make it work for my tiny tiny space, plus...
Hi Miki, I am still debating between the Mazurka and the Minstrel and saving money for whichever one, just like you..lol Kind of wish there weren't so many ...
Miki and Colette, I have a Maz and a Minstrel. Got them both unfinished. I am going to attempt to attach a photo so you can get some idea of how light the...
Thanks for the picture Sharon. When the Mazurka is put together with the lighter stain, does the wheel look less "busy"? What color stain are you using? ...
Colette, I had a similar conception of 'busy' with the Maz...until I got one. :) I did think that it would be quite distracting, but honestly--it just blends...
I didn't stain either of my wheels, I prefer to see their natural color so I used a Minwax Polycrylic clear gloss. Wood naturally darkens some with age ...
Has anyone used linseed oil on their unfinished wheels instead of a stain? Just wondering how that would work. I know it's been used to finish floors. Colette...
