Bosworth Moosie spindle, Kingwood shaft, purchased in January 09. Weighs 33g/ 1.1 oz. Whorl made of moose antler. (!!!) That's a "nibble" on the edge.

It originally had a purpleheart shaft, but my (BAD BAD) bernese mtn dog got ahold of it, chewed it up, and luckily (BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL) Sheila B came to the rescue and replaced it.

Spindles are now carefully guarded.
