Well, the Minstrel finally arrived...
Beautiful, isn't it?
It was the biggest pain in the rear-end to put together, as the instructions were the most poorly-written instructions known to man (I think it took me over two hours and I'm usually a whiz about putting things together).
After a few minutes of testing out the double drive I was off and running. First off, I started spinning some fine singles for sock yarn out of some reject BFL I had kept just for this occasion. After a while I grabbed my Amazon fiber batts from Fiber Monster on Etsy and I spun and plied this gorgeous 93 yard skein of worsted weight 2-ply.
I hardly ever spin anything heavier than DK weight, but I have to say...
... I loves it.

Where did you go? It's like you fell off the face of the planet.
