This is a traditional model of Book Charkha. The compact Charkha is in a shape of the Book and is very compact and lightweight. Because of its lightweight it can easily be carried wherever you go! Product Features: ▪ Teak Wood body with a French Varnish finish. ▪ Compact Size: 9.75 by 6.5 by 2 inch. ▪ Light Weight: Only 980 gm. ▪ The set includes three Spindles, a cotton drive band and a Skeiner. ▪ Crafted in India. Traditional Charkhas are crafted by the passionate & skilled artisans who have been crafting these charkhas from generations. So as to maintain its nature and tradition, they are still crafted in the same traditional ways. The material use and the methods are the same. The Charkha box frame is made from Teak Wood & Plywood is fitted to close the the frame. The outer sides of the completed box are then polished using French Varnish finish. The inner sides may not be polished or may have only light touch of the polish. So in some charkhas you may find the Plywood company logo visible on the inside. (This does not hamper the charkha operation in any way! ) The Charkha formats, material used & the methods used are the same as have been followed by the earlier generations. You need to 'tune' the Charkha first time to start spinning on them. Also they need some oiling at the friction points. But these efforts are paid in full once you start spinning on them! Hand spinning on Charkhas is addictive! It gives you peace of mind and joy of creativity!! There are no instructions included with the Charkha. If you are new to charkhas or wish to know the correct way of setting up/ spinning on them, you can check the videos posted on YouTube. There are many videos that explain as to how you can set up & spin on the charkha. Just search for 'Traditional Book Charkha' in YouTube for the videos.
