I tended to do a complete oil of my wheel for every plied bobbin (so two bobbins spinning and one bobbin plying) when I was spinning on an ashford, but you might need a little oil on the bobbins in between.<br /><br />Check your springs haven't been all stretched out. If they have replace them- you can use a short rubber band if you don't have spare springs.<br /><br />And my favourite upgrade for an old ashford wheel (assumption), though it would work on any wheel, is this http://www.wheelsandwhorls.co.nz/shop/spinning-accessories/drive-belts/ashford-turbo-kit-polycord-drive-belt/prod_221.html<br /><br />Best $15.50 you will ever spend!<br /><br />Hope you spinning goes more smoooothly!Jessicahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05683938985090487960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3453634763490150477.post-65924087319325517602012-11-06T12:03:36.741-08:002012-11-06T12:03:36.741-08:00I am smiling ,
