Got my spindle in the mail yesterday. ::happy dance::
It’s a Bosworth Purpleheart midi spindle. Weighs 36gm/1.28oz (i’m putting that there so I remember).
I love it… I’m trying to figure out what I want to spin next so I can get started.
I got my butt kicked in Sock Madness. I got to the first heel and they already had the 16 done in my division. Oh well… I knew joining wasn’t my brightest idea. Now I can spin without guilt! 
Isn’t Purpleheart THE most gorgeous wood? Good luck with it!
Very nice. I love the color.
