Jenkins Woodworking
Turkish Delights
*********************************************************************************
The Delight Story: A faithful customer repeatedly pleaded with Ed for a
smaller portable spindle for commuting to work. During the winter of
2008 he worked for several months developing the prototype for the
Jenkins Delight. Until he successfully created the well balanced, long
spinning Delight there was no other Turkish spindle of its size, weight
and shape like it.
July 29 Ed's been concentrating on catching up with store orders for
spindles and knitting needles. He hopes to be back to spindle making for
individual orders by next week. If there's a wood you'd like a spindle
made with please let us know and I'll put it on his to-make list. (All
shafts made with maple)
After three days with our small
grandchildren visiting us I'm packing finished back-orders, trying
to get a handle on what's in stock and will be working through emails
and sending PayPal invoices. It's going to take time so please be
patient, though realistically it may be tomorrow
(Friday) before all emails are answered.
Postage and handling: $3.50 for US and Canada for 1 or 2 spindles,
International based on weight (usually $4 - $5 for spindles)
To Order: Please send email to
contact @ jenkinswoodworking . com stating which spindle you'd like and whether there's a different
wood or if you'd like one put on Ed's to-make list if it's been sold.
Also include if you wish to pay with PayPal, check or cc.
If you want to use a CC include your phone number and the best time to
call. (Pacific Time) I try to reply to emails within twenty-four hours
Monday - Friday and on Monday for the emails received during the weekend.

make a leader from your fiber.
Below are pictures of Sold Delights made from woods that Ed tries to keep in
stock, all maple shafts.
Weights noted are average; odds are that your spindle will not be
exactly the same in looks and weight.

Shaft Replacements: If your shaft
breaks please email the type and weight of your spindle (Kuchulu, Delight or
Standard). Ed will make a new shaft for your spindle.
$10 will
include replacement plus Postage.
Ed makes each shaft specifically for the individual spindle. One shaft does
not fit all! When making a replacement shaft he uses a spindle of the same
weight to test spinning balance.
