Spinning wheel

My dad and I have been trying to build a spinning wheel.  We've basically just been going by photos of other handmade spinning wheels and the Louets.  So far we've gotten all the pieces cut, some drilled, and we took a bike wheel off my an old bike.  Since we aren't sure if it's going to work or not, we've just been using scrap pieces of pine and other cheap supplies that we have lying around.  If it ends up working good,  I'll probably end up building a second with oak or poplar.    He'll still have to cut the pieces though because he would never let me use a saw unless it were a hacksaw.  

Sorry I don't have any photos to show.  I'll get some photos when we're a little further along :)
