I am looking for a set of plans for a double peddle spinning wheel.
I have pretty much exhausted the search thing and found a couple but the
pics are very bad so it's hard to tell the true look of the finished
product.
I am hoping someone here knows of some.

Thanks to all in advance,

Lee, I was just looking for the same thing. The best I found is listed
below, though they are single pedal and not dual. However, converting them
to dual pedal is "a piece of cake." All you have to do is make a slight
modification to the way the pedal attaches and put an extra crook in the
axle. Also, looking at the Ashford of a friend of mine, I am going to
modify the Maidens to accept sintered bronze bearings, like the Ashford
uses.

I ordered both sets and had then in about four days, not bad.

I built the Popular Mechanics wheel and it is not bad. Since it was my
first, I really cannot judge the plans but they appear easier to follow
than the ones mentioned above. The reason I am going with the above is
that I (my daughter actually) want a larger wheel than the 17/18" in the
Popular Mechanincs plans.

If I can be of any help, give me a shout.
