I make tatting shuttles and drop spindles, and occasionally write articles for fun. I take X-Rays for a living. This gives me the luxury of not worrying about market share and competition. I do not consider any of the techniques, ideas or images on this site to be protected by copyright.
Ideas are the most fun of all.
If you would like to use anything you see on my web site as a jumping off place to try making your own spindles or shuttles you are most welcome. If there's something you don't understand or more information you need please feel free to email me. I'd love to hear how things go in any case. And if you take things a little further than I have I would love to hear what you've done if you're also inclined to share. With your permission I'll add it to this site.
