Spinners Choice

The Majacraft Aura is here! A new way of looking at double drives and a new way of looking at spinning. This spinning wheel is a collaboration between Majacraft and the very accomplished spinner Pluckyfluff.

Designed from the ground up, the Majacraft Aura spinning wheel has new style and presence while still retaining the classic Majacraft look. The Aura has two independent drive bands, one for the flyer and a second for the bobbin. The flyer drive has three different ratios and the bobbin drive has two ratios plus infinite adjustment.

The Majacraft Aura  has a new dual function orifice. Finer yarns can be held still in the delta part of the orifice. This also has the function of holding coil yarns very still so you can observe your work. You can bypass the delta and use the large halo ring for spinning huge yarns.. With the new double drive, the Majacraft Aura can spin anything that can be pulled through this orifice!

The new folding handle design has the grip in a new location and special bumpers on the handle to keep the spinning head away from the pedals when you fold it down. The Aura will fit all existing Majacraft flyers. It fits all wood bobbins produced after April 2010. The Aura is constructed out of New Zealand Rimu wood with a solid bamboo drive wheel. It weights 16.5 lbs and has a 13" wheel diameter. Ratios are: 4.1, 5.4, &7.3 :1. Complete with three jumbo wooden bobbins.
