Size & Weight (Olive Ash)
Don’t underestimate this one based on its looks; this spindle has body. Size 2 is quite heavy for its small frame, making it very powerful. Size 3 is a steady driver for larger projects.
| Size | Weight | Diameter | Your Spinning Experience |
| 2 | 20 – 23 grams | 7,5 cm | Compact momentum; spins much more powerfully than it looks |
| 3 | 33 grams | 10 cm | Steady powerhouse; ideal for those who prefer a spindle with mass. |
Why Olive Ash?
Usually, light-colored wood is light in weight, but olive ash breaks the rules. It’s compact and stable. The dark stripes make it visually exciting and — for the fans of tactile ASMR — those veins are a tactile add-on you can actually feel. A nice break from the otherwise silky-smooth finish.
The design: Model Artemis
Named after the goddess of the hunt.
The Artemis is sleek, focused, and carries its mass in the core. Combined with olive ash, you get a spindle with plenty of power, letting its own weight do the work.
The details
- The Shaft: Hickory or walnut with the smart taper to keep your single in place.
