Schacht Flatiron Spinning Wheel

A Spinning Wheel that Combines Elegance and Innovation

The Flatiron Spinning Wheel unfolds from its flat-packed state, resembling the rise of Boulder's iconic Flatirons. Its sleek design, made of moulded maple ply, mirrors the dramatic appeal of the Flatirons. This unique Saxony-style wheel breaks from tradition, reflecting the unconventional vibe of its hometown, Boulder, Colorado.

The versatile Flatiron Spinning Wheel lets you choose the flyer's position on either the left or right. The system ensures smooth spinning, equipped with self-aligning bearings and an adjustable drive wheel. Changing bobbins is made easy with the clever quick-release lever.
