DSC00162-sm.JPG48" Wheel313 viewsFirst test fit of the 48" flywheel for my early string-twisting machine. The wheel still needs draw-boring & pegging, grooving, iron bands on the hub, and some cosmetic work. The hub is American Sycamore, spokes are White Oak, and the felloes (fellies) are Beech. Some of the counterweights for the machine can be seen above the 8 O'Clock spoke.citternmaker
