...Ey up firebugs,
.
...Quite a simple tip for this weeks #toptipsontuesdays but quite an effective one nether the less.
.
...It takes a while for the spindle to marry to the hearth board & start to fun smoothly so take your time, start with small strokes & gradually increase the stroke legnth to avoid the spindle flipping out.
.
.. For a lot of you this will be automatic but if your just starting out I think you'll find this quite a helpful tip.
.
...Enjoy the week ahead guys, stay safe and I'll catch ya soon.
