I hope this is ok to post - we are running a kickstarter campaign for our electric ballwinder, TUG.
We were able to demo this at Michigan League of Handweavers Conference and Midwest Weavers Conference in June, and NEWS in July.
Right now the ballwinder winds cakes. It does have a removable head and we are currently working on a cone winder attachment for a true cone and a pirn winder attachment. These will probably take 6 months to a year to develop.
Check out the video and spread the word if you feel inclined!
Thanks!
