Wooden Ball Winder Power Base



Use with wooden ball winder from Nancy's Knit Knacks. The unit incorporates some very high end features not previously available on any electric winder
Speed Range - approx. 200 to 540 RPM
(based on balls measuring 2" to 7" in diameter)
Yarn winding rate goes from 0.6 yds. to 5.5 yds. per second.
Average winding rate is approx. 3.1 yards per second (winding rate depends on both the speed and amount of yarn on spindle - the more yarn on the spindle the faster the winding rate is per second). It is recommended that older winders be upgraded with the ball winder tensioner if you are purchasing the power base as this will ensure optimal performance of the ball winder when winding at high speeds.
