In this episode of the SweetGeorgia show, we kick off the new season with David Giles from Daedalus Spinning Wheels. David shares the story of how Daedalus Spinning Wheels began and how a blend of engineering, curiosity, and care for makers led to a fresh approach to spinning technology. He also shares about the newest addition to their flock, the Dove e-Spinner.

A Bit About David:
Daedalus Spinning Wheels is owned and operated by Dave and Rebecca Giles. Founded in 2018, the business grew out of their dye studio, Spotted Ewe Fibers, when Rebecca began spinning her own yarn. Dave soon found himself drawn to the mechanics behind handspinning and brought his engineering background into the studio, designing e-Spinners that feel light, responsive, and intuitive to use.

What started with the Blackbird e-Spinner quickly grew into a full lineup of electric wheels and tools, all shaped by their connections with the spinning community. Dave and Rebecca continue to listen, refine, and imagine what will come next!
