Charlotte, So glad your wheel came and you are getting to know her. I did not put any glue on the legs of my Polanaise and it has been working fine. Of ...
I have taken my Minstrel to meetings, and she does fine with a seatbelt. I don't know if my legs are glued in or not, but I wouldn't glue them until I had to....
I just picked-up four ounce of camel silk blend and was wondering if I need to treat it differently than wool. If so, what I should do with it? It has been...
