ROLY-POLY

Made from carbon fiber and 3D printed ABS plastic, the Roly-Poly is an electric ball winder that winds nostepinne-style balls. It has gone through extensive development to ensure the prettiest winding possible along with the ease of use and the qualities we all know and love of the Daedalus Spinning Wheels. There were many considerations during testing that we had to keep in mind including:

  •     Ball density

  •     Capable of working with a wide range of yarn weights

  •     Appropriate tension

  •     Capacity

  •     Work smoothly with a variety of swifts

  •     Characteristics of the winding angle and overall shape

It has a capacity of approximately 1 lb of #6 Bulky to 24 oz of #1 Fingering. Estimated capacity varies based on the tension and weight of the yarn. It has a footprint of 16.5" L x 7" W x 11" H ( 42 L x 18 W x 28 H cm), and weighs 4.8 lbs (2.2kg).

DAEDALUS QUALITY

All of our products are designed, produced, assembled, and tested in-house. Operating a farm of 3D printers on location, changes can be implemented overnight - and this means that our products are highly evolved in a short period of time. This allows our customers to enjoy a highly refined product that they can trust to be of the highest quality and reliability for many years to come.

Our design goals for all of our products are focused on low noise, high performance, light action, and smart ergonomics. As is our standard, each and every component of this tool was chosen for its quiet operation and endurance. Features common to all Daedalus products include a hardened tool-steel axle, precision bearings, and a high-quality, ball-bearing, whisper-quiet motor. Combining these ideas with a rigorous quality control check procedure ensures that every unit performs perfectly before it leaves our door. We analyze everything from the sound it makes to the thermal image signatures to make sure that it will operate flawlessly even under the most extreme use conditions
